There are many people in the United Kingdom who still haven’t even thought let alone considered opting for cavity wall insulation. Can you really afford not too?

Houses that don’t have cavity wall insulation lose 33-35% of their heat and energy through their walls. This is especially so for houses made from the 1930’s onwards. This loss of heat can amount to an average wasted heating cost of up to £110 per year or 560kg of CO2 per year. In fact if every house in the United Kingdom had Cavity wall insulation then this would yield an average saving of £690million per year which would amount to 4 million tonnes of CO2 saved per year.

Still not convinced?

Other reasons why you should consider cavity wall insulation are:

* Save money (up to £110/year)
* Increased warmth throughout your whole house
* Help increase house value
* Repels water
* Increases energy rating of your home
*

It may save me money in the long run but won’t the start up costs be ridiculous?

I know what your thinking, if having cavity wall insulation can save you so much year on year then surely the cost to get it done is going to be high, well luckily this isn’t the case. Most people will be pleased to know that you can get a grant to help pay towards you cavity wall insulation. This means that you may only be required to pay as little as £149 yourself for this money and heat saving initiative. Let’s put that into some perspective, if you decide to go with cavity wall insulation your initial cost is £149 and will last decades. You year on year saving is £110 in two years you will save £220, that minus your start-up cost of £149 will make you a financial saving of £61 and within ten years you will have saved a total of £951. That would be a lovely amount to put towards a holiday or save for a rainy day. Still feel that cavity wall insulation is neither important nor cost saving? Hopefully not!
