Loft insulation allows your home or building space to retain heat in the winter and release heat during the summer. Heat retention is achieved by the hot air rising from the bottom of your house to the top where the material that is placed inside your roof creates a barrier that retains the heat. If you don’t insulate this will likely lead to you losing up to 25% of the heat that is generated in your home through the loft. The material that you choose to install has different degrees of thickness that help create superior levels of insulation.
