Tips & Tricks
Energy saving roof insulation
The greatest savings that can be achieved is with the roofing of detached houses, due to which three-quarter of the energy costs may be saved. Insulate the intervals between the sloping beams with mineral wool or polystyrene. In the cases of a newly built house apply insulation on the sloping beams.
