Why have Draught proofing?
It's often overlooked when people think about insulating their homes, but draught proofing can be one of the least costly and most effective ways of making your home more energy efficient and therefore warmer!
Where do I need it?
Draught proofing is usually required around doors or windows, anywhere where there is an opening to the outside and there may be small gaps letting cold air in. These gaps are sealed up by the draught proofing keeping the warm air in which will reduce how much energy it takes to heat the house, saving you money on your heating bills.
How much money will I save?
It is estimated that a fully draught proofed home will save around £25* per year, by preventing heat loss and cold air entering the house. This means heating your home will be more efficitent, reducing the time it takes to bring the house up to temperature and maintain the warmth.
