THERMAL INSULATION
Thermal insulation can be installed in either your ceiling or your walls. We distribute Bradford Gold insulation made by CSR.
Bradford Gold can stop up to 70% of all heat transfers in your home. It keeps our the heat in summer and stops heat from escaping in the winter. Bradford Gold can save you as much as 60% of the cost of heating and colling you home.
The level of insulation is measured by the R-Value. The thicker or denser the insulation is the more it resists the flow of heat. The higher the R-value, the better the insulation and the higher the level of comfort in your home.
Thermal Ceiling Insulation
Installing insulation in your ceiling stops the heat from penetrating in the summer and escaping in the winter.
Access Insulation use Bradford Gold insulation batts which are carefully installed by our trained staff. We lay each insulation batt between the trusses in your ceiling and cut out around any down lights or other electrical products in your ceiling.
Ceiling insulation can be provided in a variety of R-values from R2.0 to over R3.5.
Thermal Wall Insulation
Insulating walls of new homes is very effective and relatively simple. Insulating walls of existing homes is a little more difficult as you need to remove the plasterboard to get to the cavity behind.
Types of Wall Insulation:
- Wall Wrap is applied to the outside of the frame prior to the external finish of the home being completed. This provides a stand alone R1.0 rating.
- Wall Batts can be installed with R1.5 to R2.0 rating to accentuate the wall insulation. These are installed prior to the plasterboard being installed.
