About a third of all the heat lost in homes is due to uninsulated walls. Heat flows from a warm area to a cold which in winter, the colder it is outside, the faster heat from your home will escape into the surrounding air. In general, houses built from the 1990s onwards have wall insulation to keep the heat in, but if your house is older than that it may not have any wall insulation. If this is the case then you may be losing a lot of heat from your home, as heat can escape more quickly through uninsulated walls. Most types of wall can be insulated in one way or another. If you have a typical house with cavity walls, you could save up to £150 per year in heating bills just from insulating the walls. The first thing you need to find out is what sort of walls you have.
