Insulation Projects
Having been involved in property insulation (cavity wall, Internal & External Wall and roof/loft ) for over a decade we were ideally placed to understand the key element to making a low temperature renewable heating system work - STOP THE HEAT LOSS!
In the times of energy price rises seriously impacting customers finances we can help with providing accurate information on what a certain level of insulation will do for both the financial and environmental impact your property has.
This means that a number of claims made by companies trying to sell their particular product can be examined and analysed to give you theconfidence that the largeexpense you are being asked tooutlay will actually achieve the desired benefits you've been sold.
We work closely with a number ofcompanies that provide various solutions to cutting down the heat loss in your property and are happy to advise on what is the best solution for you.
In the case of solid walls working with a Heat Pump system the key is to get the losses down as low as practical. The property opposite had a heat loss of 22kW and the customer wanted to switch from oil to a heat pump system. Therefore the customer would either need to (a) have a cascade system of 2 x heat pumps (b) have a bivalent system still using oil and not claim the £5,000 B.U.S payment or (c) reduce the heat loss.
By adding a 90mm External Wall Insulation system the brought theirheating spend from around £7,000 per year to just over £3,000 and the heat loss reduced to 11kW and inside the range of a single heat pump unit.
