Save heating costs thanks to the right facade insulation

Numerous households are suffering from the enormous increase in electricity and heating costs. Is it possible to effectively save on heating costs and reduce spending on heating and energy? The best way to reduce expenses in this area is to properly insulate the property. Façade insulation can help save on heating costs. You can find out how you can benefit from this here.

Why the right insulation of a facade saves heating costs

Properties built before 1978 without energy-related renovation emit a good third of the heat outside. Ultimately, this means that you heat for the outside area and not for your cozy ambience. Thermal heat loss can be noticeably reduced by insulating the façade. In new buildings, the insulation is already carried out during the construction of the facade. The house facade should not only be considered from an aesthetic point of view. Even if it is the business card and should look inviting, its functionality plays an equally essential role when it comes to reducing heating costs. When heating and energy were still affordable, home builders gave less thought to facade insulation. Older buildings in particular are therefore affected by a permeable outer shell and are hardly sustainable in terms of energy today.

With professional façade insulation, you can save on heating costs and improve your own ecological footprint. However, not every insulation variant is suitable for all objects. Therefore, professional advice for your individual case and for your building is a stable foundation for reducing heating costs. Do not heat for the outside area if you can save heating costs with subsequent insulation. This will relieve the environment and your wallet.

Retrofit façade insulation and save on heating costs

The generic term facade insulation is divided into three different insulation variants. There is core insulation, exterior insulation and interior insulation. All three options have their advantages. However, not all variants are suitable for every building. If you live in a listed property and want to save on heating costs, external insulation is out of the question due to the change in the facade. In order to have core insulation carried out, the facade must have an interior space and accordingly be built in two layers. Only then is it possible to blow the insulation material through small holes into the cavity. If external insulation is not permitted and core insulation is impossible, you can save on heating costs by subsequently insulating the interior. Even if this is not a "real" facade insulation, this variant is better than no insulation at all in individual cases.

In the case of listed properties and basement floors, the interior is insulated due to the circumstances. In all other cases, one of the two first-mentioned facade insulation variants is usually possible. In a personal consultation on site, we get an overview and recommend the variant that suits your building and that can be retrofitted without much effort. If you can save up to a third of heating energy and lower your energy costs, it will certainly make itself felt in your wallet.

Conclusion

Poorly insulated properties can be post-insulated. The subsequent insulation of the facade saves on heating costs and protects the environment and your wallet. We would be happy to advise you on what is possible with your property.
