‘Off the Grid’

 

insulation

An average of 35% of heat is lost through the walls and 25% through the ceiling. They’re multiple ways to prevent this via cavity wall and loft insulation, external insulation is a great way to wrap your house up and lock in all the heat. Keeping this in will reduce your running costs dramatically.

Solar PV & Battery backup

Capturing free electricity during the hours you’re away from home and storing it for a time when you’re using appliances is key. This alone can bring your close to eliminating your electricity bills.

Heat pump & MVHR

Now with the energy you’ve stored in your battery throughout the day, your heat pump can run at minimal if any costs at night. The slow, constant tick of MVHR will also allow your heat pump to work at a lower rate during all hours, reducing the use of all heating appliances.
