We read with shock recently that a new study by the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU) found that some UK homes could face ANOTHER £1,000 on their energy bills this winter.
Essentially, it comes down to poor insulation and whilst the figures are staggering, the cause is no surprise to us.
There has been mounting pressure on the government to do more to insulate homes with regards to how that can help in the battle against climate change but maybe these new stats will bring the insulation message closer to home.
We have seen a huge trend at Green Space UK of customers asking us about how they could save money on their energy bills with our conservatory insulation panels as more and more people seek to balance the budgets.
Very simply, your conservatory is often TOO HOT because your existing roof panels have little to no insulation.
This means that the heat from the sun easily makes its way into your conservatory and becomes trapped, causing the room itself to warm up. As traditional conservatory roofing is transparent, a 'greenhouse effect' takes place and exacerbates the problem.
Our insulated conservatory roofing panels give you a conservatory that is cooler in the summer. They work by helping to restrict the flow of heat through the roof, meaning that heat from the sun stays outside of the room.
Now, what was once a hot and unusable room is transformed into a fresh, airy and useable space in less than a day.
Cool idea?
We think so, as we suspect might the folks behind that study. Here’s what their senior analyst, Jess Ralston had to say when speaking to The Guardian earlier this month;;
“These stark differences between highly insulated and poorly insulated homes show the real-world impacts insulation could have in time to dent exorbitant bills this winter.”
The industry would appear to agree too, with Gillian Charlesworth of the Building Research Establishment commenting that:
“Setting out a clear, long-term strategy to retrofit the UK’s buildings will not only ensure we continue to deliver the net zero strategy, but it will also bolster our energy security by lowering demand for natural gas.”
We’re right with you guys and we’re here to help.
