The advantages of thermal insulation
Creating and maintaining a great thermal insulation is the most effective way to improve a home’s energy efficiency. The insulation of the entire building helps to keep the heat inside during winter and, when temperatures rise during summer, it keeps the excessive heat outside the house. This is for the benefit of comfort and energy savings. A house insulation can, in fact, save the 45-55% of the energy required for heating and cooling throughout the year. By thermally insulating your home, you can significantly reduce bills and, at the same time, help reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Windows: the house weak point
Windows have always been considered a weakness from the point of view of energy efficiency in a building envelope. Single-glazed windows allow the highest energy transfer (i.e. heat loss or gain, depending on the weather conditions) allowing the maximum daylight transmission. No wonder such windows are basically extinct in residential architecture. Today’ standard is a low heat exchange window, with double (or triple) glazing and insulation between them.
A great improvement over the old single-glazed windows are insulated windows, which are much better at preventing the loss (and gain) of heat, while keeping the internal temperature of the house relatively constant.
