Insulation

 

Adequate insulation is a must for all houses. Many houses in Ireland, particularly those built prior to 1980, are energy inefficient and poorly insulated. Effective insulation of your home walls, attic, boiler, windows, and doors can dramatically reduce heat loss. You can insulate your attic and some areas around the house yourself by obtaining the appropriate insulation and equipment from your local  DIY store. More complex insulation measures may require external specialists.
