We all love to stay warm and cozy during the winter. But if your Melbourne heating system is on the fritz and it’s time to replace it, consider doing the same for your insulation. There are several advantages to doing this and we’ve put together a collection of them.
Increased Comfort
Over the last few years there have been significant improvements in insulation and heating technology. Your new heating system is going to provide you with efficient and even heating across your house. But if your insulation hasn’t been replaced in your home, you may not be able to fully benefit from your new system. Old insulation can allow a lot of the heat to escape to the outdoors. This can lead to cold spots in your house and drafts. Sealing up those cracks and putting in new insulation will increase the overall comfort in your home.
Increased Efficiency
You may have decided to replace your heating system in order to take advantage of the increase energy efficient of newer furnaces. But if you just upgrade your heating system and not the insulation, you might not experience the energy savings you had hoped for. Old insulation might be letting all that nice heated air float right out of your house. When you upgrade your insulation, you can help trap that heat in your home and enjoy greater efficiency. This can potentially lead to savings on your monthly energy bill.
