Why install home insulation?
Cavity Wall Insulation
Homes without wall insulation can lose up to 35% of their heat. Installing cavity wall insulation is not only effective, it’s also quick to install and is done with minimum mess and disruption.
- Insulating the cavity between the walls could save you up to *£115 per year.
- Saves around *610kgs CO2 per year
Loft Insulation
If you don’t have the correct depth of loft insulation then you could be losing as much 25% of your home’s heat through the roof. Current guidelines recommend you have between 250mm and 270mm (10” to 11”) of insulation installed.
- Insulating your loft could save you up to *£150 per year (dependant on existing levels of insulation).
- Saves around *800kgs of CO2 per year
