INSULATION

HOW INSULATION WORKS...

Insulation works as a barrier to heat transfer, helping to keep out unwanted heat in summer and preserving precious warmth inside your home during winter. With efficient insulation it can be up to 10 degrees cooler in summer and 5 degrees warmer in winter.

Insulation is the most cost effective way to reduce your heating and cooling energy by between 67-87%.

With energy costs rising significantly and Six Star energy rating requirements for all new homes in Victoria as of 1st May 2011, make sure your home is more energy efficient and environmentally friendly, whilst saving you hundreds of dollars every year in energy costs!

WHAT TYPE OF INSULATION WILL SUIT YOUR NEEDS?

CEILING

Ceiling insulation is the most effective form of insulation you can have. Correctly installed insulation has the potential to save 20-30% on heating and cooling bills.

WALL

Wall insulation is the second most effective form of insulation you can use to reduce transfer of heat.

Wall insulation works in the exactly the same way as ceiling insulation by providing a barrier that prevents heat transfer.

WALL WRAPS

The installation of wall wrap can help reduce air-flow around insulation and through the building cavity, allowing the insulation to work more efficiently.  Wall Wrap can also reduce moisture entry through the wall helping prevent structural damage to the frame and allowing the wall insulation batts to perform at the specified R-Value rating.

UNDERFLOOR

Underfloor insulation is sometimes the forgotten insulation. Decorating trends have seen exposed timber floorboards being more commonly used than carpet with new and existing homes. 

With floorboards comes drafts, and exposure to heat loss. Up to 10% of heat transfers in and out of homes on stumps via the floor.
