Cavity Wall Insulation

A large amount of the heat lost in your home is due to badly insulated walls. Cavity Wall Insulation can dramatically reduce heat loss and save you over £100 pounds a year off your heating bills

So what is Cavity wall Insulation

Homes that were built after the 1930ties will more than likely have a cavity (space) between the inner and outer walls. Cavity wall insulation works by filling the Cavity (the gap) with an insulation agent that can be poured through a number of drilled holes in the outer walls.

New builds often have thick Insulation foam that is placed in the Cavity.

Cavity wall insulation helps you save money but it also has a wider implication for the environment, helping to reduce CO2 emissions responsible for climate change.

Floor Insulation

It is possible to save a large amount of energy by insulating wooden floors, by laying mineral wool underneath the floorboards and between the joists.

You can also reduce the amount of energy lost through draft by using a sillicon sealant to fill in the gaps between skirting boards and floorboards.

By doing the above the energy saving trust outlines that you can save around £70 a year. 

and about 380kg of CO 2   Can be saved each year in a  average  3 bedroom semi-detached house.

All of the equiptment needed to insulate your floors can be bought at any reptable DIY shop.
