Our tips for saving energy & reducing running costs
- Roof insulation: Around 30% of the heat loss from a property is through the roof. Replace any old insulation with new insulation, preferably of around 200mm thickness or more.
- Window frames: Single glazed windows, particularly those with steel frames, can lose a great deal of heat. Consideration should be given to replacement with PVCu or wooden framed double glazed units.
- Curtains: Lined curtains, or the heavier full length curtains, can provide excellent insulation. However, always ensure that the curtains do not drape over radiators.
- Draughts: Try to ensure that draughts around doors, windows, letterboxes and keyholes etc., are reduced by using a suitable draught excluder. WARNING - Do not block or seal any air vents that are installed to ensure the central heating boiler operates safely.
- Room thermostats: Reducing the setting of the room thermostat by 1°C can reduce fuel consumption by up to 10%.
- New control systems: Upgrade your heating control system with the latest equipment available. The minimum level of control for a combi boiler or fully pumped system is a programmer, interlocking room thermostat and thermostatic radiator valves.
- Radiators: If radiators are fitted on an outside wall, fitting reflective foil paper to the wall behind the radiator will reduce heat loss through the wall behind the radiator.
- Solar panels: The addition of solar water heating panels to your system could provide up to 70% of your annual hot water requirements from a renewable and free energy source.
