Insulation plays a huge part in keeping a consistent temperature in a building all year round, keeping out the heat in summer and protecting against the cold in winter. A well-insulated building will require far less heating or cooling and therefore will be more energy-efficient, making it more comfortable and saving money at the same time.
Why use insulation?
Insulation is a vital component of any house, particularly during the winter months when temperatures drop and heating costs can skyrocket. Insulation works by reducing heat transfer between the inside and outside of a building, effectively creating a barrier to keep warm air inside and cold air outside. This is achieved with low thermal conductivity. Earthwool® insulation trap air molecules within its structure and slow down heat flow. Earthwool® insulation acts as a blanket, keeping heat in and cold out, and thereby reducing the amount of energy needed to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature.
In addition to its thermal benefits, glasswool insulation plays a major role when it comes to fire safety as well as it is also provides high level of sound absorption and noise reduction.
