Thermal Insulation

 Appropriate insulation is a basic prerequisite for the protection of a building from cold or heat.

 In order to reduce thermal losses one can:

>Close any gaps around the rim of doors or windows using insulating materials, self adhesive foam ribbons available in shops or silicon rubber

 >Avoid too excessively air spaces heated

 >Close the window shutters and curtains on cold winter nights in order to conserve heat within.

 >Insulate thermally the roof of the building

 >Replace the single-glass-pane windows with new thermally insulated double glazed windows

 >Insulate the walls
