Many homeowners still ignore the importance of insulating that often redundant loft space. A loft that lacks proper insulation could be costing you more than you realise. Without proper insulation, more energy will be used to compensate. Insulating a loft is a smart investment. Not only will it help to contain heat It will help with energy costs. If you still need to insulate the loft, then it’s time to give it some careful thought. As well as saving money on energy costs, it’s helping to reduce your carbon footprint.

Benefits of loft insulation

Adequate loft insulation has the ability to reduce your energy bills by as much as 20% – 25%, a no-brainer, you would think? 

If you want a cosier and more energy-efficient living space with reduced reliance on your heating and cooling systems (if you have one), then insulating that drafty loft area is a solution. In winter, the warmth generated is kept inside and prevented from rising through the roof. 

Energy bills have soared in 2022, which is why insulation is crucial in all sorts of properties and businesses. 

Your energy efficiency can be improved because, as you know, heat rises, and if it’s not prevented from leaving your property, your energy costs are literally going through the roof! By reducing the amount of heat that escapes through your roof, you’ll be able to maintain a more comfortable temperature inside your home without using as much energy. 

This can also help reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to a more sustainable future.

Loft insulation can help make your home more comfortable by keeping it warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. Proper insulation will cut out those annoying drafts that emanate from the loft hatch.

Loft insulation is an investment that pays dividends for years to come. A typical lifespan in the region of 40 years means you can sit back and enjoy the benefits for years to come. 

The insulation acts as a barrier between your home and the outside world, preventing heat from escaping in the winter and keeping it out during the summer. With the increasing emphasis on sustainable living, investing in loft insulation is a smart choice for homeowners looking to save money.

The insulation material is easy to install, taking up only a small amount of time. With its easy-to-follow instructions and simple application methods, loft insulation rolls can be fitted in hours.

Loft and wall insulation is a smart investment as fully insulated eco-friendly homes are in high demand. Not only do they help the environment, but ultimately it attracts potential buyers looking for more energy/eco-efficient homes. 

So, if you’re looking to improve the value of your home, investing in loft insulation is a great place to start.

Your HVAC system must work more to maintain your home’s temperature when there is poor insulation. Spray foam is another way to provide loft insulation. Insulating the roof deck with liquid spray foam can be used to insulate walls, floors, lofts and other draughty areas. 

So, if you need a quick and easy way to improve your home’s insulation, loft insulation is worth considering.

Other types of insulation materials:

  • Sheet insulation (foil backing)
  • Batt or blanket insulation – rolls foil-backed felt, glass or mineral fibre.
  • Loose fill, cellulose fibre, minerals, cork granules, mineral wool, etc.
