How does it work?

Insulation works by reducing heat flow. The measure of an insulation product’s performance is expressed by R-Value.

The R-Value of an insulation material is the industry-accepted measure of a products thermal performance. The test method for determining a product R-Value is the same for all bulk-fibre insulation materials (ie. Polyester, wool blends and fibre-glass) allowing you to compare products on an ‘apples for apples’ basis.

R-Value performance is based in a products ability to reduce heat flow. The higher the R-Value the better the insulation performs in reducing heat flow, keeping your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer. A well insulated and well designed home will provide comfort year-round.
