What is EcoCosi?

What measures can I have installed?

From loft insulation to solar panels, there are many ways to make your home more energy efficient.

Your home is as individual as you are. At EcoCosi, that individuality is at the heart of every retrofit project.

Below, you’ll find a list of the typical measures that might be suitable for your project. Our initial Whole House Survey will identify which measures will make the biggest improvement to the energy efficiency of your home.

At EcoCosi, we divide a retrofit into four stages:

  1. Insulation
  2. Ventilation
  3. Electrification
  4. Generation

 

Working this way ensures you can achieve the most energy efficient home possible. Under each stage, you’ll see a list of the measures we offer. The list isn’t exhaustive, so don’t worry if there’s a retrofit measure you were expecting to see that isn’t included.

Insulation

Wall insulation

Internal, external and cavity wall insulation are all potential options, but which method you choose depends on your home’s wall type.

Wall insulation

Roof and loft insulation

Uninsulated homes lose a quarter of their heat through the roof. With loft insulation, you can keep your home warm and reduce your energy bills.

Floor insulation

If your home has a ground floor, or if you live above an unheated space, underfloor insulation will help reduce heat loss.
