Case Studies

Fiona’s home in Taranaki is a charming 1920s villa with a recently added extension. Despite the modern comforts in the new addition, the villa’s older rooms had no insulation and struggled to retain heat, making it hard to keep the entire house comfortable.

With the windows already double glazed and ceiling insulation installed, she knew wall insulation was the missing piece. “I knew that most of a home’s heat is lost through walls,” she says. “Especially older homes like mine.”

Having heard about Insulmax®, Fiona knew it offered a cost-effective solution – just what she needed

With Insulmax® now installed on all external walls of her home, Fiona says she immediately noticed a difference. "I've hardly had to use the gas heater," she says. “I used to need it all the time, but now I can heat the house much faster, and it stays warm for longer.

“If the temperature drops really low, I might put the gas heating on for an hour just to boost the warmth, and then that's it. I don’t have to heat it constantly like I used to.”

The Insulmax® team Wayne and Natasha, also left a lasting impression with their precise and tidy installation. “They did a perfect job. I couldn't tell where they had drilled the holes,” she says. “I actually looked to see if I could find them but couldn’t!"

For Fiona, the investment in wall insulation has been well worth it. “To me, it was worth every penny because I’m now comfortable in the house – no more shivering!” she says.
