So you know that insulating your home makes sound sense, but there are still one or two things you’d like to find out. Here, Hillserve answer some of the questions we’re asked most often.

Q) How much could I realistically expect to save by properly insulting my home?

A )  If your cavity walls are un-insulated, you could be losing up to 35% of your home’s heat through them - heat that you are paying for. By stopping this loss you could see your energy bills come down by an average of £70-£100 a year – an amount that could almost be doubled by ensuring your loft is properly insulated too.

Q) Is it true that by insulating my home, I’d be helping protect the environment?

A)  Many of the processes used to generate the energy used in our homes, also generate gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide, that when released into the atmosphere that contribute to global warming. By insulating your home you’ll be making it more energy efficient, reducing the amount of these gases and their impact.

Q)  I’ve heard there are grants available – would I qualify for one?

A)  People on certain types of benefits and assistance could be entitled to a 100% grant to cover the total cost of insulating their homes. Even those not on these benefits could still qualify for a discount of between 50% and 70%. You can find out whether you’re entitled and to how much by talking to a member of Hillserve’s customer care team on 0800 622415.
