Insulate it
- Installing insulation is a good start on your home energy improvement journey.
- There are many simple yet effective ways to insulate your home, which can significantly reduce heat loss while lowering your heating bills.
- The Energy Saving Trust has information about insulation for your roof and loft, cavity wall, pipes/tanks/radiators, floor or solid wall – click here.
- A quarter of building heat is lost through the roof in an uninsulated space so insulating your loft, attic or flat roof is a simple and effective way to reduce heat loss and reduce your heating bills.
- Loft insulation is effective for at least 40 years and it should pay for itself many times over. See here for more details.
