Gold Ceiling insulation can be installed when you’re building a new home, during renovations or to an existing home at a later date as long as there is access to the ceiling space. If this applies to you, you're in the perfect place to start considering how Bradford insulation can help you achieve a house design that is fundamentally modern, ecologically rich, smart, and will remain so for years to come.

You can lose up to 42% of the heat in your home through the ceilings in winter and around the same amount of heat can enter in through the ceilings during summer. Bradford Gold™ insulation essentially acts as a barrier to slow down this process and makes a substantial different to the temperature you will feel inside, meaning you can live more comfortably.

R-values are the measuring tool we use to rate the level of thermal resistance. Essentially, the higher the R-Value the more effective the insulation is. Bradford Gold ceiling segments are available in R-Values from R1.8 – R7.3 so you can choose the level of insulation that best suits your needs.

The glasswool we use is made up of very thin glass fibres that are spun like fairy floss to create millions of air pockets. These air pockets are very poor conductors of heat and resist the flow of air or radiation through the insulation. 

Reasons to Upgrade to Gold Hi-Performance Ceiling Segments

Bradford Gold Hi-Performance Ceiling segments boast the highest R-Value ratings of R5.0 to R7.3. The higher the R-Value rating, the more effective the insulation is as the segments provide a better level of the resistance to heat in your home. Understanding the difference between R-Values is important as it can mean the difference between getting an average product for your home with average benefits, and getting the best product for your home.

Bradford Gold Hi-Performance segments are made from glasswool, the world's most popular insulation material. It is a highly cost-effective solution to rising energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions. Bradford Gold Hi-Performance ceiling segments have the ability to give your home an optimal level of comfort which you'll notice straight away in your ability to turn off your air conditioning and heating on most days, saving it as a last resort for only those really hot or cool days in the season. Therefore, when you install premium Bradford Gold Hi-Performance segments in your home’s ceiling, you use less energy and waste less money on heating and cooling.
