Thermal insulation is a means to prevent heat loss or heat gain by creating a barrier between two areas that are different significantly different in temperature. Buildings need help to keep them energy efficient by using the different insulation options available. By using insulation in your home you can reduce heat loss during cold weather and also keep your home cool during periods of warm weather while also reducing your costs.

Insulation is not designed to keep the cold out but to slow the loss of heat from the building or components like pipes. Buildings can be insulated by using materials that are themselves insulated or buy leaving gaps in ceilings and walls which can then be filled with insulating material. The main areas that you should consider for insulation are the roof, walls, windows, doors and floors. You should also consider that you cannot completely eradicate heat loss but you can eradicate a large proportion of the loss of heat form you home by using insulation

The presence of insulation can cause your property to become dramatically more energy efficient. The National Insulation Association claims, for example, that installing roof insulation alone can save 15% of a home’s annual heating bills.

The efficiency of insulation varies immensely between type, thickness, manufacturer and installation quality. If, for example, you squash the insulation material during installation, this will cause it to be less effective.
