What is a low carbon heating system?
A low carbon heating system is a way of heating your home that produces fewer carbon emissions than traditional gas or oil heating. This means that rather than relying on fossil fuels, low carbon systems use electricity, renewable energy or highly efficient technology to provide heating and, in some cases, hot water. These are becoming […]
How does insulation improve energy efficiency?
Rather than allowing warmth to escape during the winter or unwanted heat to enter during the summer, insulation works as a barrier to help maintain a more consistent indoor temperature throughout the year. But how does this improve energy efficiency? And what can you expect from high quality insulation? Why does heat escape from a […]
What is cavity wall insulation?
Cavity wall insulation involves filling the gap between the inner and outer walls with insulating material to make a property more energy efficient. Many homes built in the UK from the 1920s onwards were constructed with cavity walls, making this one of the most effective ways to reduce heat loss without major building work. This […]

Instead of generating heat by burning fuel, it moves existing heat from one place to another using a refrigeration cycle. This makes it an energy-efficient alternative to traditional electric […]
Is solid wall insulation worth it?
If you live in an older property, solid wall insulation can be an effective way to improve energy efficiency and make the home more comfortable. While it typically involves a greater upfront investment than loft or cavity wall insulation, it can significantly reduce heat loss in properties with solid walls. But is solid wall insulation […]
