We have all heard the old adage that heat rises. According to the Energy Saving Trust, it is estimated that as much as 25% of the heat inside a typical home can be lost through the roof if it has not been well insulated. Loft insulation is a material that is fitted into the loft space. If fitted correctly, it will dramatically increase the amount of time it takes for heat to escape from the home.
The correct use of loft insulation means the occupants of the home will benefit in a range of ways:
Cost Savings – Lower Energy Bills
One of the most obvious and significant benefits is cost savings. Because as much as a quarter of overall heat can potentially be lost through an uninsulated or poorly insulated roof, the length of time your heating is required to be on will be reduced significantly if the heat cannot escape so quickly. Loft insulation should pay for itself many times over during its working life.
A More Comfortable Living Space
Maintaining a more consistent living temperature inside the home, rather than experiencing huge peaks and troughs when the heating comes on and off, will make a very noticeable difference for the people living in the property.
Environmental Impact
Lower energy consumption will in turn lead to a reduced carbon footprint. There are many types of insulation available on the market today, but our insulation is sustainably sourced and much more eco-friendly than some of the more traditional types, while losing nothing in performance.
Potential Increase in the Value of the Property
Properties that are well insulated are often considered far more desirable and may even lead to increased value and a faster sale compared with a property that is not properly insulated.
Prevention of Condensation Build-Up
When installed correctly, loft insulation can help prevent condensation issues in the roof space, which can lead to timbers rotting.
