Energy Saving Tips for Your New Home

The energy used for heating and cooling a typical home generates more than one and a half tonnes of greenhouse gas each year.

• Limit the flow of heat through your roof, walls, windows and gaps.
• Insulate ceiling, walls and floors. As much as 35% of heat loss from a house is through an uninsulated ceiling; uninsulated walls account for a further 15 to 25% and uninsulated floors lose between 10 and 20% of heat.
• Seal out draughts by sealing cracks and gaps, fitting dampers to fireplaces and blocking unnecessary vents: cut annual greenhouse gas emissions by hundreds of kilograms.
• Cut heat-flow through windows by shading them from hot sun and installing close-fitting blinds or curtains with pelmets. In extreme climates, install double-glazed windows with ‘low emissivity’ insulating glass. If buying windows, look for energy rating labels to help you assess the performance of different types of windows.
• Covering internal walls, particularly those that face south, can reduce heat loss in winter. Even a large woollen wall-hanging can provide extra insulation.
