Energy efficient improvements
The Energy Company Obligation (ECO4) is a government energy-efficiency scheme in Great Britain, designed to tackle fuel poverty and help reduce carbon emissions.
Solar Panels
In simple terms, solar panels use the power of the sun to generate electricity. Solar power is one of the most popular and well-known renewable energies. Although different kinds of solar panel exist, most work in a similar way. Solar panels collect energy from the sun through contact with daylight.
Floor Insulation
Insulating a floor means adding an insulating material beneath the floorboards, thereby reducing heat escaping through the floor into the ground. Approximately 15% of heat is lost from a house via this route. Insulation also acts to prevent draughts coming up through the floorboards.
Air Source Heat Pump
Air source heat pumps are increasingly popular in the UK. They are a great environmentally friendly and cost-effective alternative to traditional heating systems. According to the Energy Saving Trust, an air source heat pump can cut your emissions by 44% a year.
Not only can air source heat pumps keep your home warm, but they can make hot water too! Plus they can do it much more efficiently than traditional oil or gas-fired boilers
External Wall Insulation
External wall insulation mitigates the amount of heat lost through a building’s walls, which is estimated to be around 45%. Insulation is fixed to the outer leaf of a building and is then covered with a thin coat of silicone render, which is available in a choice of over 500 colour options. It is a great option for customers who are looking to improve the heating efficiency of their home & want to improve the façade of their property at the same time.
Room In Roof Insulation
Installing room in roof insulation involves insulation boarding being fitted in between the rafters underneath the existing plasterboard walls.
Room in roof insulation works by trapping heat within your home to create a blanket effect.
This allows you to more easily maintain a warm home without using as much energy to do so, saving you money on your energy bills.
Internal Wall Insulation
The existing interior wall surface is prepared by treating any damp and removing loose wall coverings. Insulated plasterboard is then fixed to the old plaster wall with adhesive and fixings for additional hold. The insulated plasterboards are then newly skimmed with plaster and the skirting boards reinstated.
Loft Insulation
The installation process usually takes a few hours to complete and involves laying insulation material between the joists in your loft.
Enjoy the benefits: After the installation is complete, you can enjoy the benefits of a warmer, more energy-efficient home. Loft insulation can help to reduce your energy bills and keep your home warmer in the winter months.
Full Central Heating
If you currently do not have any central heating and are unsure whether you should take advantage of the first time central heating grant, the answer is simple. The funding would lower your heating bills for you and your family whilst providing you with a warmer more comfortable living environment at no cost to you!
