Solar Panels

Solar panels are roof-mounted systems that capture the sun’s energy, converting it into electricity for your home. More people are investing in them than ever – with over 1.4 million installations in homes across the UK.

Insulation

Insulation prevents heat escaping by installing specific insulation materials in different parts of your home. Cavity wall and loft insulation are a cost-effective way to save money on bills, typically lasting around 40 years.
