Transforming My 1950s Weatherboard Home with Insulmax®
When my husband and I first considered insulating our 1950s weatherboard home, we were seeking a solution that was effective yet non-invasive. We previously renovated a few rooms with pink batts, but we were eager to try something less intrusive. Our friends had raved about the difference Insulmax® made on their power bills over the winter, so we thought, why not?

Brian Copeland’s 1950s Rotorua home was typical of many from that error. In a word… cold! Clad in weatherboard and brick, the 160m2 house had served as a rental for 20 years and was now Brian and his partner’s first home.
