With the staggering rise bills and energy costs, the best way to save money this winter is to use less energy.
Heating your home accounts for the largest single energy use in your home, often between 45% and 75% of you energy use in the average Scottish home. This makes it the easiest single target when looking to reduce your bills.
By insulating your walls, floors, roof or windows, known as the ‘building fabric’ you can reduce the amount of heat lost to the outside world and therefore reduce the amount of heat and energy you need to produce to keep your home warm.
This if often called the ‘Fabric First’ approach.
The aim is to focus on minimising the energy needed for heating first, before looking at heat pumps, solar or other methods of producing heat. With an insulated and efficient building fabric, you have more options available when looking at heat sources.
We can help you achieve this with our Energy Saving Appraisal where we visit your home and help you work out the best ways to make your home cosy and energy efficient for the winter.
Bi it a detached house, a listed building or a rented flat, there is a range of suitable improvements we can suggest, from thick curtains to a whole house retrofit.
