This way you spend less on additional heating and cooling systems which makes insulating your home a very good investment. Insulation also provides a healthy environment for your home by preventing the build up of mould.
The four main areas that you can expect heat loss is your ceilings, walls, floors, and windows. In this article we will delve further into insulating windows and glass doors for homes in Auckland.
Single glazed windows (or pane of glass) has been insulating and protecting our homes for centuries, but is there anything better than glass? The answer to this is double glazed windows and doors.
We’ve developed a Double Glazing Cost Calculator (Updated on August 2021 to reflect market prices of product and labour) designed for you to get an indication of what you can expect to invest based on the provided information.

One of his colleagues and six others - including a nurse at Auckland City Hospital - have since tested positive for the virus. The entire country is currently in alert level four.
At this stage, the Ministry of Health has only shared information for one Auckland location of interest: The Devonport Pharmacy, which the man visited on Monday, August 16 from 2.15pm-2.30pm.
Despite this, the pharmacy was the only shop on Devonport’s main road to be open on Wednesday. The township was unusually quiet, with only the odd jogger, dog-walker or cyclist visible.
Devonport-Takapuna Local Board member Toni van Tonder, who lives in Narrowneck, said that having a Covid case locally was slightly alarming. However, she had faith residents were doing the right thing.
“Devonport is a unique community, people are very, very caring of one another.”

Made in Germany e-bike bought from Evo Bikes in 2019 at $1498. It will also come with a service plan valid until Nov 2022. Designed for fast commute i.e. a road bike not a mountain bike. Frame is too big for me (I'm 5"3) and especially after an accident with it I've just left it in the lounge like a display really. The part that fixate the saddle height is broken but an easy fix. Selling as it is. Can come and view after 6pm Mon-Fri this week. Weekend I'll be busy moving but can arrange time :) A bargain not to be missed!
