HOW TO KEEP YOUR LOFT /EXTENSION WARM DURING WINTER

UNDERFLOOR HEATING

Although it can be more expensive to install, underfloor heating provides an excellent way of heating an extension for several reasons. Underfloor heating makes getting out of bed on a cold winter’s morning far more bearable than traditional wall-mounted radiators. The feeling of warmth on your feet when you step on the floor is blissful.

INSULATE

Insulation is the simplest step you can take to maintain a warm temperature in your loft space. You should try and add this feature during the conversion process itself to ensure maximum convenience and minimal disruption. Your loft conversion company may be able to advise you as to which type of insulation would be best suited for your individual loft space, and should help you adhere to Regulations.

HEAVY CURTAINS

Now that you have double or triple glazing to capture sunlight and retain heat, you can help reduce heat loss further by installing thick, heavy curtains in front of the windows. Thermal-lined curtains are ideal for keeping warmth in a loft conversion and will help reduce the amount you pay for energy, even if it’s only a little.

ELECTRIC HEATERS

Electric heaters offer a cheaper way to effectively produce heat in a room when compared to traditional central heating and they don’t cost a fortune. Using an electric heater for an hour in a room should be enough to heat it to a comfortable temperature.
