Product Information

External wall insulation is one of the best ways to protect your home against damp and penetrating moisture. This not only slows down the movement of heat through the walls but also offers greater protection to your walls against rain penetration and frost damage. Rigid insulation panels are a convenient way to install insulation behind new plasterboard walls, by filling in the gaps between the timber battens. Alternatively, flexible insulation rolls and insulation sheets can be used to infill irregular shapes or where access is limited. Wool: Wool bedding offers great benefits. That’s because wool is hypoallergenic and dust mite resistant, fire resistant, durable, chemical free, and keeps you cozy warm at night. Wool-based flannel sheets may be hard to find, though. Bamboo sheets, or sheets made from bamboo fibers, are insulating and adjust to your body temperature to keep you cool in the summer and warm in the winter. For cotton sheets, the thread count refers to the number of horizontal and vertical threads per square inch. As a general rule of thumb, the higher the thread count, the tighter the weave, and the softer the fabric. A good set of sheets range from 200 to 400 thread count. Some brands boast thread counts of 1,000 or more. These sheets may be heavier and may take longer to soften over time.

Solid wall insulation is not an easy task. Some people do it themselves, but unless you have experience with wall insulation, you should hire professionals to do the work. For internal walls, rigid foam boards from brands such as Celotex or Kingspan are often used because of their excellent thermal properties and their thinness. While more expensive than internal insulation, it is very effective and should not be overlooked. Plus you can lower the cost of other major works are carried on at the same time. Wall, both interior and exterior, are areas that need insulation. For exterior walls, most people choose to install rigid boards along with a vapour barrier. On the other hand, cellulose, foam, and/or fibreglass batts are mostly used for interior walls. There are a lot of ways to stay warm and cozy in your bed on a cold winter night. Fleece or flannel pajamas and cozy blankets in down, fleece, and even cashmere are great options. Electric blankets and heated mattress pads are another option. But be aware that placing a heated covering directly over a latex or memory foam mattresses may interfere with the shaping of the mattress and cause damage. FAQsWhen shopping for sheets, many are overwhelmed by the surprising amount of fabric options available. While each material has its own pros and cons, our fiber scientists explain which fabrics and features you should look for as a hot sleeper:

Microfiber sheets may quote a number that looks like thread count, but it doesn’t apply the same way as it does with cotton sheets. Microfiber sheets are measured in grams per square meter, or GSM. Typically, microfiber sheets have a GSM of between 90 and 110. The higher the number, the more durable, dense, and warm the sheets. PriceLinen: Like cotton, linen is also a natural fabric that is popular for its loose weave, providing excellent airflow. Note that linen sheets tend to be less soft than other materials.
