Hints and Tips to Energy Saving

What measures can you take to improve your property?

Cavity Wall Insulation

Many properties built between 1930 and 1980 were constructed with two outer walls and a cavity between the two. Insulating this cavity can lead to savings of £130-£160 on your fuel bill each year.

Loft Insulation and Draughtproofing

Up to 25% of your heating costs could be escaping through your roof. It´s quick and easy to install loft insulation and draught proofing in your property and you can even carry out the work yourself to make further savings.

Heating

You can reduce your heating bills by putting in heating controls such as room thermostats and thermostatic radiator valves (TVRs) and high efficiency condensing boilers also help you save energy and money.

Appliances

There are a range of energy efficient appliances available which can help you save energy, money and the environment.

Energy Saving Lightbulbs

An energy saving light bulb can save you up to £100 during its lifetime and will last up to 12 times longer than a conventional bulb.

Renewables

There are a variety of technologies available which produce energy from natural sources, such as the sun, or continually replaceable sources, such as crops. They reduce our reliance on fossil fuels for power.
