Cut Energy Bills with External Wall Insulation

Keep the Heat In, Save Money

External wall insulation significantly reduces heat loss through your walls, which leads to lower energy consumption and reduced heating bills. Many homeowners have reported saving up to £620 per year on energy bills. This translates into a potential reduction in heating costs of 30% to 40%.

Payback Period - A Smart Investment

The savings on energy bills mean that external wall insulation can effectively pay for itself within 8 to 10 years. Moreover, as your property's value increases with the installation of EWI, you continue to benefit from lower heating costs every year.

 

Environmental Impact and Carbon Footprint Reduction

Lower Your Carbon Footprint

With external wall insulation, you can significantly reduce your home's carbon emissions. By requiring less energy to maintain a comfortable temperature, insulating your solid walls can cut your home's carbon footprint by around 50% to 60%, equating to a reduction of approximately 1.8 to 2.5 tonnes of CO2 per year.

Protect Your Home from Damp and Mould

External wall insulation creates a protective layer that prevents moisture from penetrating your walls, effectively helping to eliminate damp and its associated problems. By keeping your walls warmer, EWI also prevents condensation damp from forming, particularly during late autumn and winter months. Homes with external wall insulation have reported a significant decrease in damp issues, leading to less need for costly repairs and improved indoor air quality.

Health Benefits

By preventing damp and mould spore growth, external wall insulation contributes to a healthier living environment. This is particularly important for families as it reduces the risk of respiratory issues and allergies, protecting children from conditions like asthma.

External wall insulation not only boosts energy efficiency but also enhances your property's visual appeal. Homeowners can choose from a wide range of finishes and colours that suit their style preferences.
