INSULATION !
Well Its that time of year isn't it , and all the energy companies seem to be involved in some Carbon Offset Promotion or the other, well, B and Q with British Gas are doing 6 rolls of 200mm Loft insulation for £8 this weekend!
Hvving bought ten packs of 6 rolls ( Actually about 3 packs too many ) I hae had a dusty couple of hours lagging the loft in fact I reckon I’ve got over 400mm in places now.



Interested ? Then Read the Government advice below

• More than 40% of all the heat lost in an average home is through the loft space and walls


• More heat is lost through walls than any other route – approximately 33% in an uninsulated home


• 270-300 mm (10.5 inches) of loft insulation can save up to 15% of a home’s heating costs


• Cavity Wall Insulation is one of the most cost-effective energy efficiency measures in the home. It can save around £120 each year on a typical home fuel bill.
