We believe insulation

is one of the best investments you can make for your home—it’s a great way to gain significant long-term savings and make your home more comfortable year-round. But how can you tell if you need more insulation? There are several signs:

Energy bills that are higher than normal
Drafts (particularly near the windows and doors)
Uneven temperatures from room to room
Air conditioner running more than normal

An insulation company like SmartHome Insulation will be able to tell you whether you need more insulation, but those are some signs you can look out for on your own.

By installing solar panels

on your home, you can protect yourself against the big energy companies increasing their electricity prices. You can reduce your electricity bills and sell your extra power back to the grid! The amount of sunlight that strikes the earth's surface in an hour and a half is enough to handle the entire world's energy consumption for a full year.

Solar technologies convert sunlight into electrical energy either through photovoltaic (PV) panels or through mirrors that concentrate solar radiation. This energy can be used to generate electricity or be stored in batteries or thermal storage.Having a battery system allows you to store the electricity produced by your solar panels if the energy produced exceeds the amount your property is using.

For example, if you don’t work from home your house will not be using much electricity whilst you are out. Therefore, a battery can store the energy produced by your solar panels during the day to then power your home in the evening when you are consuming the most electricity.

Taking advantage of an agile battery system also allows you to purchase electricity from the grid at off-peak hours and sell it back during peak hours. This further adds to your savings on your energy bills and can make you money by selling the excess electricity produced by your solar panels back to the grid as well.
