Insulation Measures
External Wall Insulation: We apply insulation to the exterior walls of your home to create a thermal barrier that keeps heat in during the winter and out during the summer. This not only improves comfort but also enhances the appearance of your home.
Loft Insulation: We install high-quality insulation in your loft to prevent heat from escaping through your roof. This can significantly reduce your heating costs and make your home warmer in the winter.
Room in Roof Insulation: If you have converted your loft into living space, we can insulate the slopes and ceilings to ensure that your room in the roof is both energy efficient and warm for the winter.
Cavity Wall Insulation: If your home has a gap between the outer and inner walls of the building, EEH-Solutions, as a registered installer, can install insulation material in between the gap, confining heat. The average homeowner can save between £100 and £370 on energy bills depending on the size and age of the home.
Benefits
Reduced Energy Bills: By reducing heat loss, fabric installation can significantly lower your heating costs, saving you money in the long run.
Reduced Carbon Footprint: By using less energy to heat your home, you'll be reducing your carbon footprint and contributing to a more sustainable future.
Improved Comfort: A well-insulated home is warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, creating a more comfortable living environment.
Increased Property Value: Energy-efficient homes are becoming increasingly desirable, and fabric installation can add value to your property.
EWI FAQ
-
Why should I choose EWI?
It is one of the most effective ways of improving the energy efficiency of your property, having a number of benefits over other more traditional means of insulation, such as cavity fill or insulated dry lining.
-
How much will I save on my heating bills by installing EWI?
The Energy Savings Trust estimates that up to ⅓ of the heat generated internally in a poorly insulated house can be lost through the walls and roof. Therefore, an installation of EWI can reduce heating costs up to around 40%.
-
Will I Have to Leave My Home Whilst the EWI Work Is Carried Out?
No. There is no reason why you will need to leave your home when fitting EWI.
LOFT INSULATION FAQ
-
Which type of loft insulation is the best for me?
It depends on your loft’s accessibility, existing insulation levels and budget - for instance, loose-fill insulation is more ideal for hard-to-areas and a less accessible loft. EEH-Solutions can assist you with this choice.
-
Will previous loft insulation need to be removed before adding more?
This depends on the type and condition of the existing insulation - if it is in good condition and meets the recommended thickness (270mm), it may only need to be topped up. However, if it is damaged or insufficient, it is best to remove and/or replace.
-
Will my loft insulation affect my roof warranty?
This is unlikely to happen, however you may wish to check your roof warranty terms or consult EEH-Solutions if you have any concerns.
ROOM-IN-ROOF FAQ
-
Do I need planning permission for room-in-roof insulation?
No, planning permission isn't usually required for insulation installation.
-
What are the different types of room-in-roof insulation?
Common types include rigid insulation boards (PIR or mineral wool) and blown-in insulation (cellulose or mineral wool).
-
Will the insulation make my loft space smaller?
Yes, some space will be lost due to the thickness of the insulation, but it's a small trade-off for the benefits gained.
