Insulation is one of the simplest and most cost effective ways to improve the energy efficiency of buildings, whether they are old or new. Greater energy efficiency means that it is easier to maintain a comfortable internal temperature, regardless of the weather conditions outside. This in turn leads to lower fuel consumption, lower bills for the consumer and fewer carbon emissions to damage the environment.
Best of all, it offers a durable solution: provided the right insulation is used and installed correctly, it will carry on being energy efficient over the life of the building without needing any maintenance, and the cost of installing the insulation will be paid back in just a few years through the savings made on energy bills.
