Roof Insulation
Probably best known environmentally green measure that can be taken easily and cheaply with results being phenomenal. There will be a huge Green Deal loft insulation push, The Green Deal is very keen to get millions of homeowners to have Green Deal loft insulation, the reason being is that it is a cost effective easily installed green measure that will produce excellent results year on year.
The ideal amount of loft insulation is 270 mm and millions of houses are well below that standard by having the recommended amount of loft insulation you will save up to £175 per year on your heating bills which is a considerable saving considering this may only cost £350 to install.
As we are all aware, heat rises, and it is said a quarter of our heat is lost through poorly insulated roofs. If you imagine how much of your hard earned cash it takes to heat your home each year we are basically throwing away 25% of which could easily be saved.
It is very often the case people always say my roof is insulated however it is often the case that it is not insulated to a sufficient standard. By involving a Green Deal Assessor he will be able have a quick look and tell immediately the losses incurred by inadequate insulation.
In most cases insulating your roof space is a very simple procedure that a Green Deal installer will have fitted in no time although you may be a little worried that you have irregular loft space or a flat roof in either case a Green Deal Assessor will be able to advise but by no means is this insurmountable and there are simple solutions to this so you will still be able to qualify for the Green Deal.
