Loft insulation, Save £££s and be "Green"
Loft insulation. Eighty per cent of energy used in homes is for heating. Installing good insulation can help cut your fuel bills and your carbon emissions. Call Barris, your roofer in Beckenham to insulate your loft and make your home more energy efficient.
The Bigger Issue
Energy used in the home is responsible for more than a quarter of the UK's carbon emissions. Reducing the amount of energy you use for heating is one of the biggest things you can do to help reduce climate change.
It's never been more important to insulate your loft. Without proper insulation a lot of the valuable, expensive energy you use to heat your home will be lost through the loft. The recommended depth for mineral wool insulation (below left) is 300mm however there are other materials which require different depths.
Loft insulation is an effective way to save energy and money at home. A well insulated house keeps warmth exactly where you need it - indoors.
So let Barris, your roofer in Beckenham insulate your loft - or topping up any loft insulation you have already -will help to heat your home more efficiently. Using less energy reduces carbon dioxide emissions (CO2): one of the biggest causes of climate change. You will also save money on your bills too.
Heat will always flow from a warm area to a cold one. The colder it is outside, the faster heat from your home will escape into the surrounding air.
Insulation makes it much more difficult for heat to pass up through your roof by providing a layer of material which has lots of air pockets in it. These pockets trap heat, cutting what is known as the U value of the loft.
Your Roofer in Beckenham, Barris Roofing, can insulate your loft with several different products. Kingspan Board (above right), SF19 Superfoil (above left) is a multilayer foil product and the most effective, it meets the current requirements, together with 100mm rockwool, but is only 38mm thick. The recommended depth for mineral wool insulation (below left) is 300mm howeve this makes it difficult to use loftspace for strorage. Loose fill Micafil vermiculite (below right) is available for those hard to reach areas. Roofer in Beckenham
