A poorly insulated home loses its warmth as heat escapes through the walls, ceilings and floors. A well-insulated home will not only provide year-round comfort but also reduce your power bill. On average, 35% of your power bill goes towards heating costs. Over time, a well-insulated home will ‘pay for itself’. You’ll notice a lower power bill as insulation will reduce the need to heat your home as often, as the insulation will trap the warmth inside.
In addition to reducing your power bill, insulating your home can provide several other benefits. Improved air quality is one such advantage, as proper insulation can help prevent drafts that can bring in dust, pollen, and mould spores. This can help to reduce the risk of respiratory problems and improve indoor air quality. Additionally, insulation can help prevent moisture buildup that can lead to mould and mildew growth, protecting both your home and your health. By investing in insulation, you can enjoy a more comfortable, healthier, and safer living environment.
