It looks like the cold weather is over for the time being, this is the time of year everybody seems to forget just how cold it was earlier in the year. The facts are now is the time to start getting prepared for the next cold period as many stores and companies offer large discounts on insulation materials. A very small investment now could well save a great deal of money in the future. In some cases, if you are receiving certain benefits this can all be done free of charge, just check to see if you qualify.
Below are some of the most popular insulating materials to help you select the one that is most suitable for you.
Rock mineral wool insulation
A more solid material than glass wool so is suitable for situations where the material may be compressed. Mineral wool can be obtained in rolls and comes in varying thicknesses and widths. Rock mineral wool is a very effective fire safety measure as it is resilient to heat and fire.
Sheet loft insulation
Comes in sheets and is usually used to insulate the sloping side of the roof inside a loft. This type of insulation can be more expensive and is energy intensive to manufacture but has a high insulation value.

Homeowners should remember a well-insulated home can save upwards of £400 per year and I think we would all agree this is well worth having.
