As temperatures drop and the cost of living crisis continues, many households might be looking of ways that can help them prevent heat escaping from their homes.
One simple and affordable item that they may want to invest in are radiator reflector panels that can help keep the heating in their homes during the colder weather.
While the weather is certainly set to get a bit milder this week, compared to the freezing temperatures we have had, they are still an inexpensive method of preventing heat loss that can be worth keeping in mind as energy bills continue to rise.
Experts say that these easy to install foil panels can help save heat loss and cut back on heating bills by reflecting the heat energy back into the home to keep it warm.
These nifty home items can be purchased from many DIY and hardware stores, with Screwfix being one of the cheapest Radiator Reflect Foil 470MM x 4M (1.88M²) that costs just £7.99.
The hardware store's reflector foil is made from reflective, metallised polyester and polyethylene foam roll and can be easily cut to size.
Screwfix also says that its reflector foil can be used behind any sized radiator and that it can cut heat loss by up to 50%.

A second read: "Easy to apply using wall paper paste and efficient. Great value and energy saving."
A third happy customer commented: "Bought the radiator foil to help with heat retention. It was easy to cut, work with and adhered to the wall with double sided sticky tape. The room is definitely warm and am very happy with the product."
