Being in business in Manchester is great, but, as with everything, it has its drawbacks. One of them? Keeping overhead minimal. And second only to rent and salaries is the ubiquitous, ever-shifting energy bill.
We’re all searching for that silver bullet, that one thing that can really cut into operational expenses. And although I can’t guarantee miracles, I can tell you about something that comes very close, particularly in our Georgia weather: cavity wall insulation.
What Are Cavity Walls?
Most homes, particularly those constructed post-mid-20th century, have a gap – a cavity – between the inner and outer walls. Think built-in thermos flask, though, unfortunately, it’s often vacant. That vacant space? A heat transfer highway. In summer, heat permeates in, making your AC overwork. In winter, that valuable, costly heat escapes, and you’re left cold and gazing at a colossal bill.
The logical next step, therefore, is to use that empty space to hold a high-tech material that will drastically reduce heat transfer. That is cavity wall insulation.
The Bottom Line (Literally)
So what does that mean to your company?
- Reduced energy bills: This is the biggie. By reducing heat loss and gain, you’ll use your HVAC system less. We’re talking possibly major savings, month after month, year after year.
- Greater comfort: A more consistent temperature means a happier (and more productive) workforce. No more fighting over the thermostat!
- Higher property value: Energy efficiency is a great selling point. Should you ever need to sell or lease your building, good insulation installation will be an asset.
- Reduced carbon footprint: It’s good to be doing your bit for the planet, and it’s ever more valuable to customers and clients.
- Sound dampening (a bonus!): Many insulation materials also offer a degree of sound dampening, which can be a real benefit in busy commercial spaces, reducing noise pollution from outside and creating a more peaceful interior.
