Insulation - Insulation for your home
Insulation acts as a barrier to
heat flow and is essential to keep your home warm in winter and cool in
summer. A well insulated and well designed home will provide year-round
comfort, cutting cooling and heating bills by up to half. This, in
turn, will reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Climatic conditions will influence the
appropriate level and type of insulation. Establish whether the
insulation will be predominantly needed to keep heat out or in (or
both). Insulation must cater for seasonal as well as daily variations
in temperature, see ‘Insulation levels for your Climate’.
