In the three years we owned our home, we'd experienced hot summers and cold winters. Our house, built in the 60s, lacked insulation, especially as two bedrooms backed onto the garage, which was uninsulated and subject to extreme temperature fluctuations. Using our heat pump only brought partial relief, and renovation was not in our immediate plans. So, we were on a lookout for a practical solution.
We first encountered the Tauranga Insulmax® team at a home show. We'd seen their TV ads and knew they offered a solution for insulating the walls of our brick home, without requiring renovation. The display at the stand was good, but the detailed explanation from their consultant at our home convinced us to proceed.
Barrie was friendly, professional, and efficient. He showed us the product that was going to be used and answered all our questions. We decided to insulate the whole house, including the large wall in the garage. It was a game-changer, not just in keeping the house warm during winter but also in reducing noise from outside.
The results were immediate and impressive. We noticed that we didn't have to turn on the heat pump as often, and even when we did, we could set it at a lower temperature. Our daughter, who feels the cold more, noticed a big difference in her room. It took her longer to feel the need to add extra layers. Also, the insulation seemed to help slightly during the summer, reducing the heat transfer from the outside.
We borrowed money for this project, but the difference it made was worth it. We see it as an investment in our home, adding value without the need for a full renovation. When people ask about our experience, we are more than happy to recommend the Tauranga Insulmax® team.
