Thermal Insulation

Why would we insulate our property?

• To minimise: hot and cold temperatures
• To minimise noise
• Increase the comfort: protecting you from temperature extremes and external noise by keeping your home warmer in winter, cooler in summer and quieter all year – which means in-turn:
• Cutting the forever increasing energy bills
• saves natural resources as well as improving the quality of life you are living / working in.
  

Why would we choose Attic Vac’s INSULATION IN THE CEILING?

For an existing home where there is no wall insulation: you will be able to prevent loss of up to 70% of the heat flow (remember hot air rises)

Why will it be Cooler in summer?

• Insulation stops the summer heat from entering through your ceiling and walls keeping your home approximately 7 degrees cooler.
• It prevents up to 70% of heat flowing in and allows your air-conditioning to operate more efficiently and in-turn more cost effective.
• How will it be Warmer in winter?
• Insulation allows a warmer, more cosy environment in those cold winter months, by up to 10 degrees.
• Which may reduce your heating bills up to 66% (where both walls and ceilings are insulated).
• Preventing heat loss, saves energy: which in-turn will help save our precious environment

What is “R” Rating System

• The” R” value is the form of measurement applied, in which the material is targeted to “Resist” the flow of heat through it. Basically, the higher the “R” rating the greater the insulation properties.
• All thermal insulation used in your home should have an R rating.
• To fulfil Council / Basix report requirements
  The geographical location governs the “R” rating to suit your home / property.
• We will be able to advise you as to what insulation performance is suitable
• Attic Vac Provides and installs Thermal Batts with a range of “R” Values: R1.5, R2.0, R2.5, R3.0, R3.5, R4.0 and insulation batt that needs to be a particular specification is also possible
