Use celotex for freezing outside walls

OUTSIDE WALLS- ATTACH CELOTEX BOARDS TO INSIDE OF OUTER WALL


If you live in a home with outside walls,  such as an end- of terrace or  detached house then you will be losing more heat than those in a terraced house celotex boards are an effective form of insulation. They are panels which are fixed to the inside of the wall and will block out the cold. The saving in energy bills will make it worth your while as well as the cosiness it will provide. They can also serve a useful purpose in an attic room which does not have the added protection of a loft over it. At approx £18 a board,  you can recover the use of a room by using them on one wall or two so it is well worth it.

KEEP UPSTAIRS ROOM WARM


Heat always rises so if you don't heat the upstairs at all, it will stay cold downstairs. Keep upstairs radiators on low/medium so that you do not lose all your heat from the downstairs.


DRAUGHT PROOF


Hot air always seeks to escape to the cold rooms so draught excluders for the doors are very useful. A draught excluder at the foot of the door will trap the warm air and it will stay in the room. Keep all doors shut.

FRONT AND BACK DOORS

A lot of heat is lost from the front and back doors so use draught excluders to keep the air in the house.
