With ETICS: A better quality of living

What actually makes a home special? The people you live with, the decor, the neighborhood? No matter what, a home should be a place where you feel comfortable and at ease. But when it comes to buildings in need of renovation, that's often not the case. More and more, homeowners are justifying their decision not to insulate by saying the building would lose its charm and that familiar 'lived-in' feeling. But actually, the opposite is true. Energetic renovation does not only increase energy, warmth, and value, but also the quality of living.

A green conscience

Facade insulation helps to reduce personal CO2 emissions, ensuring you have a sustainably clean conscience. If houses are better insulated, excessive energy consumption is prevented. Nevertheless it is surprising that residential buildings are responsible for half of the total energy demand in Germany! To improve environmental performance, detached homes particularly benefit from energy-efficient renovation. The consumption of natural resources such as oil or natural gas is reduced through improved thermal insulation and energy consumption drops.

Always the right temperature

Whether it's hot summer nights, windy wet fall days or frosty winter weekends, an insulated facade creates a comfortable atmosphere at home, any time of the year. The comfort and atmosphere in any home is largely determined by the interaction between air temperature and air humidity. In this case, insulation ensures that interior walls store heat and that means those living there feel comfortable.

Too good to be old

There are no limits to the design of facade insulation. Just a new coat of paint on a freshly-insulated facade can be all it takes to give a house a new look. Old stone or brick houses can retain their original appearance by ensuring the correct top coat is applied. Those who wish to make a more dramatic design change can opt to use insulation boards and rounded panels. So why delay, when you could breathe new life into your old house so easily?

A relaxing future

Thermal insulation makes your house fit for the future and means that you can kick back and relax. That's because a house suitable for the generations to come will give you peace of mind. A new facade effectively protects against the influences of weathering, mechanical damage or structural faults. No matter whether it's for a detached family home or as an investment, spending money on house renovations is always worth it.
