We have all heard the old adage that heat rises. Well, 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 of the building 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 time it takes for heat to escape from the home.
The correct use of loft insulation will mean 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 the cost saving aspect. 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 can’t 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, as opposed to huge peaks and troughs when the heating comes on and off will make a very noticeable difference for the people living at 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’ which are readily available, whilst loosing nothing in performance.
Potential Increase in the Value of the Property:
Properties that are well insulated are quite often considered far more desirable and may even lead to increased value and a faster sale when compared to the same property that is noy 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.
Eco Friendly Loft Insulation
Our loft insulation boasts sustainable credentials, which is becoming more important in the modern world. The building industry in the UK is looking more and more towards materials that are sustainably sourced and eco-friendly and at Unity Lime we are passionate about playing our role in working towards a greener built environment.
