WHY INSULATE YOUR HOME?

Insulation is a barrier to heat flow and keeps your home warm in winter and cool in summer. A well-insulated home will provide your-round comfort, cutting cooling and heating bills considerably.

Solartex Insulation will add enduring value to your home.

The many benefits include:

  1. Lower Costs

Lower energy bills, as it will take less power to heat or cool your home. That is good for your budget and good for the planet.

 

  1. Greater Comfort

A comfortable home with insulation warming it in winter, cooling it in summer. It also reduces the level of noise that travels through your home.

 

  1. Better Health

A healthier home, as insulation greatly reduces condensation which can cause mould and health issues.

When do I insulate my home?

Solartex Insulation Solutions works on projects from new builds, additions and renovations, to retro fitting existing homes.

 

Adding ceiling and floor insulation into homes that were built pior to the “compulsory legislation” that exists today, is becoming very common. Not only does it add to the everyday comfort of a home, but it adds to its overall value.

 

At Solartex, we have an extensive product range and experience in all of the following applications:

  • Floor
  • Ceiling
  • Roofs
  • Internal and External Walls
  • Windows
  • Pipe Lagging

What Insulation Should I Choose?

Insulation products come in a number of categories:

  • Bulk Insulation (Polyester, Wool & Fiberglass)
  • Reflective Foils ( Foil Batts, Foilboard, Sarking Foil, Bubble Foil)
  • Rigid Board (PIR Board, XPS Board, XPS + Plasterboard, EPS, Polystyrene Foam)
  • Acoustic Fabrics and Panels (QuiteSpace, Cube, Composition Fabric, 3D Tilers)

 

The effectiveness of thermal insulation is measured by its R-Value which means its resistance to heat flow. The higher the R-value the higher the lever of insulation.

The type of insulation we recommend depends on:

  • the location and position of your home
  • access to the area to be insulated
  • any specific heath requirements of the family
  • building materials used in the home construction

 

Solartex are proud to supply a carefully selected range of energy efficient, eco-friendly, recyclable polyester, reflective foils, polystyrene panel systems and products to solve any home insulation need – whether you want a warmer house in winter, cooler in summer or generally a quieter home.
