As the temperature drops, ensuring your home remains warm and energy-efficient is more important than ever. At Lenehans.ie, we believe in equipping your home with the best heat-saving products to keep your living space cozy while reducing energy costs. Here are some essential products to consider for an effective winter-proofing strategy.

  1. uPVC Window Replacement Gaskets

Old, worn-out gaskets can lead to significant heat loss. By replacing your uPVC window gaskets, you’ll not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of your windows but also improve their energy efficiency. These gaskets create a tight seal, preventing draughts and ensuring that your home retains heat during those chilly months.

  1. Draught Excluding Strips

Draughts can be sneaky, creeping in through gaps around doors and windows. Draught excluding strips are an affordable and easy solution to seal those gaps. They come in various materials, including foam and rubber, and can be easily installed on the edges of doors and windows. They are also available in different colours to match your window or door frames. By blocking unwanted draughts, you’ll notice a significant difference in your home’s warmth and comfort.

  1. Window Glazing Film

For an extra layer of insulation on older windows, consider applying window glazing film. This clear, plastic film can be easily installed over your existing windows, creating an air pocket that acts as an insulator. This not only reduces heat loss but also protects your home from condensation and cold drafts. It's a simple DIY project that can make a big impact on your heating bills.

  1. Door Insulating Products

Don’t forget your doors! Insulating your doors can be as crucial as windows. Products like door brush strips, bristled letterboxes and under-draught excluders can block unwanted draughts and minimise heat loss. These products are easy to install and can make a noticeable difference in your home’s comfort and energy efficiency.

  1. Thermal Lining Paper and Paint

Another innovative way to improve insulation is through thermal lining paper and thermal paint. Applying these products to your walls can create an extra barrier that helps keep warmth inside. Thermal lining paper not only improves insulation but can also enhance the overall look of your rooms. Similarly, thermal paint can be applied to interior walls, adding an extra layer of protection against cold weather.

  1. Thermostatic Radiator Valves

Managing your heating efficiently is key to saving energy. Thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) allow you to control the temperature of each radiator individually. By setting different temperatures in different rooms based on usage, you can significantly reduce energy consumption while keeping your home comfortable.

  1. Radiator Foil

Lastly, consider using radiator foil behind your radiators. This simple addition reflects heat back into the room rather than letting it escape through the walls. It’s a quick and effective way to boost your heating efficiency, ensuring that the warmth produced by your radiators is maximized.

Investing in these heat-saving products from Lenehans.ie not only enhances your home’s comfort but also contributes to energy efficiency, helping you save on heating costs. As the colder months approach, take the time to assess your home’s insulation and try implementing these solutions for a warmer, cozier living space.
