Research has been undertaken at the University of Salford to improve energy efficiency in homes.
The research team in the University of Salford’s Energy House put Thermocill to the test.
Thermocill is made from completely recycled plastic. The sustainable product has been created with the purpose to reduce a property’s carbon footprint by saving energy consumption.
How does it work?
It redirects heat in front of double glazed windows, tackling the ‘thermal hole’ where heat usually escapes. Therefore, it heats the room better and for longer.
What did the testing find?
Following this research, inventor Keith Rimmer’s product has been verified, with him commenting that is could revolutionise the home heating industry.
