1. Boost your insulation
Did you know that you can lose around a third of the heat in your home because of poor insulation and around 25% escapes through the roof? In April, a report revealed that a staggering 10 million UK homes may have insufficient roof insulation, which is costing them each an extra £900 every year in energy bills. Insulation refers to any material used to reduce heat loss from a building or prevent heat from entering during the summer months. Typically, materials such as fibreglass, rockwool or foam are inserted between walls, ceilings, roofs and floors to boost insulation.
