How do you know whether or not you are maximising your energy savings through house insulation?

And what’s more, does the insulation you’re using meet and pass building regulations? When you consider the fact that over 70% of properties in Ireland are either lacking in insulation or inadequately insulated you’ll see why it makes sense to consider retrofitting.

Retrofitting means applying new insulation technology (foam, spray foam, blown in, foam board) to older systems so as to improve energy efficiency and save you money.

Did you know ~

•75% of costly heat escapes through walls and attics that are either poorly insulated or have no insulation!

•Building regulations call for 300mm (l0") loft insulation60mm

•Polystyrene board no longer meets wall insulation requirement of U-Value

•You might qualify for a grant under the Greener Homes Scheme (GHS) Click here to find out.

•Retrofitting insulation helps you save a considerable amount of money each year.

Deciding to retrofit your insulation lets you enjoy many benefits, including ~

•saving considerable money on your heat & electric bills
•enjoying your more comfortable home
•helping reduce your carbon footprint and slow climate change

So, why not save yourself money while helping the environment by carrying out simple insulation retrofitting (foam, spray, blown-in, foam board, etc.) and improving seals around windows and doors today.

You can begin to enjoy the benefits of retrofitting insulation in just one day – without any mess or bother… just a cosier, more energy efficient home.

Examples of Cost Effective Retrofit Upgrades

• Insulate floors, walls and attics
• Maximise day-light - passive solar heating
• Seal drafts and joints
• Location of radiators
• Reduce unnecessary ventilation e.g. through chimney
• Heating Controls
• Damp proofing
• Upgrade heating systems
