As temperatures rise, keeping your home comfortable can feel like a challenge, especially if you’re trying to minimise energy consumption or avoid the cost of air conditioning. At Insulation Extract, we’re passionate about providing sustainable, efficient solutions for temperature control. A key player in this effort? Quality insulation. Let’s explore how insulation works, why upgrading to Earthwool is a game-changer, and how we can help you transform your home.
How Insulation Keeps Your Home Cool
Insulation acts as a barrier to heat transfer, regulating your home’s temperature. During summer, it reduces the amount of heat entering your home through walls, ceilings, and floors. This ensures that cool air stays inside, reducing the need for energy-intensive cooling systems like air conditioning.
The magic lies in insulation’s ability to trap air within its fibres, slowing down the conduction of heat. High-quality insulation, like Earthwool, offers superior thermal performance, keeping your home naturally cooler for longer.
The Case for Upgrading Your Insulation
Not all insulation is created equal, and older or poorly installed insulation may not deliver the comfort you need. Over time, materials can degrade, compress, or become less effective due to wear and tear. If your home feels uncomfortably warm despite your efforts, it might be time to consider insulation removal and replacement.
Upgrading to Earthwool insulation offers several benefits:
• Thermal Efficiency: Earthwool boasts excellent R-values (a measure of thermal resistance), providing better control over heat transfer.
• Eco-Friendly Composition: Made from recycled glass and renewable materials, Earthwool is sustainable and non-toxic.
• Improved Indoor Air Quality: Its composition minimises dust and allergens, creating a healthier environment for your family.
• Soundproofing Properties: As a bonus, Earthwool also helps dampen noise, offering peace and quiet in your home.

Tips for Staying Cool Without AC
While insulation is the foundation of a naturally cool home, combining it with other strategies can amplify results. Taking the stress off your insulation and allowing it to be more effective.
• Shade Windows: Use blinds, curtains, or reflective films to block out the sun’s heat.
• Ventilation: Install whirlybirds onto your roof
• Ceiling Fans: These help circulate air, making rooms feel cooler.
• Seal Gaps: Prevent hot air from sneaking in by sealing cracks around doors and windows.
