ECO Simplified Shortlisted for StartUp Awards National Series Sunderland-based Eco Simplified has been named one of the most exciting new businesses in the region after being shortlisted as part of a brand-new awards programme. The StartUp Awards National Series has been launched to recognise the booming startup scene across the UK which has accelerated since the pandemic began. In 2020, when most of the world was shutting down, more than 400,000 start-ups were set up in Britain, with similar increases seen in other European countries. There was stiff competition with over 2,500 applications received in response to the Startup Awards National Series’ first-ever call for entries. James Aspey, Director of Eco Simplified said: It is a privilege to work in an industry where every day we can make a difference to people living in fuel poverty, whilst making a positive difference to the environment. Big thank you to the team at Eco Simplified, I am so proud of you all. Supported nationally by BT, EY, Dell & Intel, the programme will celebrate the achievements of the amazing individuals across the UK who have turned an idea into an opportunity and taken the risk to launch a new product or service. Co-founded by the team behind the Great British Entrepreneur Awards, the new series follows the success of the Wales StartUp Awards, after organisers recognised the exceptional potential in the startup scene across the other British regions. Professor Dylan Jones-Evans OBE, the creator of the StartUp Awards National Series, said: “​​New firms are important for generating economic prosperity, employment opportunities and innovation. Since 2016, the Wales StartUp Awards have celebrated this amazing annual contribution to our economy by entrepreneurs and the impact they have on communities across the nation. “Given the sheer volume of phenomenal start-ups we’ve heard from since then, as well as the huge post-pandemic shift in people’s desires to take their career in a new direction and set up a business against the odds, we felt it was the right time to take the programme nationwide. We have been blown away by the standard of entries in this first year and truly look forward to crowning the winners in June.”

Electric Storage Heaters Electric Storage heaters or night storage heaters as they are sometimes called, charge up at night by taking advantage of off-peak electricity rates on Economy 7 & 10 tariffs. Once charged they release their heat during the day. Storage heaters have ceramic or clay bricks in side them which heat up overnight and then this heat is released gradually during the day. ​ Most storage heaters are wall-mounted and will have 2 dials on the top; one for input and the other for output. Newer models will also have digital displays . ​ To operate storage heaters you must set the input in the evening to the expected heat release of the next day. If it is not particularly cold then there is no need to set to maximum as this would waste energy. Most storage heaters will only charge at night time so they can take advantage of the cheaper electricity but some do have a 'boost' button but this would use the more expensive 'day' rate. ​ The output dial is used to regulate how quick the heat is released by the storage heaters, the higher the setting the quicker the heat is released. ​ Modern Storage heaters ​ The latest Electric Storage heaters are much improved on the previous models and can have significant savings on older models. The new modern High heat retention Electric Storage heaters are also smaller and more compact that the older models and you can also purchase 'Solar enabled' Storage heaters that also take advantage of Solar PV during the day. ​ It is possible to have Electric Storage heaters installed under the ECO4 scheme if you own your home and you have older heaters present or if you have no heating, electric room heaters or old electric storage heaters & have Solar PV installed as well then they can be installed in owner occupied or rented properties. ​ To check if you are eligible under the ECO4 scheme, please click the button below and complete the online form.

Internal Wall Insulation About 35% of all heat loss from UK homes is due to un-insulated external walls. Internal wall insulation is perfect for solid wall homes where you can't alter the outside of the property. ​ If your home was built before 1920 there is a strong likelihood that your property has solid walls. ​ You can check your wall type by looking at your brick pattern.​ If some of the bricks are laid with the square end facing, the wall is likely to be solid. If the wall is stone, it is likely to be solid. ​ Internal wall insulation is installed on a room by room basis and is applied to all exterior walls. Polyisocyanurate Insulated (PIR) plaster boards are usually used creating a dry-lined, insulated internal wall. The internal walls are then plastered to leave a smooth and clean surface for redecoration. ​ Bill savings and things to be aware of: ​ Can save between £195-£650 a year on your fuel bills depending on property size (Figures from the Energy Saving Trust and assume property is a gas heated home and sized between a sma ll flat to a large detached home). Not only will this make your house warmer in winter but it will also save you money by slowing the loss of heat through un-insulated walls.​ It will slightly reduce the floor area of any rooms which it is applied (roughly about 100mm per wall) Can be quite disruptive to install and does require the removal and re-fixing of items such as switches and radiators. Any issues with penetrating or rising damp must be rectified before install can commence. Grant funding is available that can cover the full cost of installation (qualifying criteria apply). ​ To check if you are eligible under the ECO4 scheme, please click the button below and complete the online form. ​ Apply for Funding

Room in Roof Insulation Up to 25% of heat loss in a home can be attributed to an un-insulated roof space. ​ ​ A room-in-roof or attic room is simply defined by the presence of a fixed staircase to access the room and there should be a window Many older properties that were originally built with loft room space or 'room-in-roof' were either not insulated at all or insulated using inadequate materials and techniques when compared to today's building regulations. . ​ By using the latest insulation materials and methods, insulating existing attic rooms means that you can still use the roof space for storage or additional room space if needed while still trapping heat in the property and rooms below. ​ Bill savings and things to be aware of: ​ Can save between £500-£690 a year on your fuel bills depending on property size (Figures from the Energy Saving Trust and assume property is a gas heated home and sized between a Mid-terrace house to a detached home).

Flat Roof Insulation A fl at roof is any roof space in your home with a pitch of less than 10 degrees. They are very easy to spot and as they don't usually have a loft space, they wont have a loft hatch. ​ F lat roofs being added to properties were popular in properties built between the 1950's - 1970's and if your flat roof is from this period, it is extremely unlikely to be insulated and if it is, it wont be up to todays standards. If your flat roof is uninsulated, it will mean that in winter, warm air will easily escape from any heated rooms through the flat roof, leaving the room cold and uninviting. ​ If you have recently had the membrane replaced if for example you had a leak, then it is unlikely that insulation was added, unless you specifically asked for it. ​ There are 2 ways to insulate your flat roof: ​ Warm Roof: ​ This involves adding rigid insulation board on to the roof from the outside and then coving with a waterproof membrane. This is the best way to insulate a flat roof as there are no condensation issues to contend with. Cold Roof: ​ This is the most common way that most households have their flat roofs insulated. It involves placing the insulation material between the joists spaces the support the roof. This can only be added if there is a gap of at least 50mm between the roof and the insulation to allow for air flow. ​ If you have very shallow joists then this is not recommended. As most heat is lost through uninsulated roof spaces, if you do have your flat roof insulated you can expect similar savings to insulating your loft depending on how much of your property the flat roof covers. ​ To check if you are eligible under the ECO4 scheme, please click the button below and complete the online form.

Cavity Wall Insulation About 35% of all heat loss from UK homes is due to un-insulated external walls. If your home was built after the 1930s, the chances are that its external walls are made of two ‘skins’ with a small gap between them. This means they are ‘cavity walls’ and the gap between them can be filled with insulating material to stop the warmth escaping to the outside. ​ A cavity wall can be filled with an insulating material by injecting beads into the wall. This restricts any warmth passing through the wall, reducing the money you spend on heating. ​ You can check your wall type by looking at your brick pattern. If the bricks have an even pattern and are laid lengthways, then the wall is likely to have a cavity. If some of the bricks are laid with the square end facing, the wall is likely to be solid. If the wall is stone, it is likely to be solid. ​ If your home was built within the last 25 years it is likely to been already insulated or possibly partially insulated. The surveyor can check this with a borescope inspection. Bill savings and things to be aware of: ​ Can save between £145-£480 a year on your fuel bills depending on property size (Figures from the Energy Saving Trust and assume property is a gas heated home and sized between a flat to a detached home). Walls are normally drilled and then filled from the outside, which minimises disruption and mess. Can be completed in a few hours. Grant funding is available that can cover the full cost of installation (qualifying criteria apply). ​ To check if you are eligible under the ECO4 scheme, please click the button below and complete the online form. ​ Apply for Funding

Loft Insulation Heat from your house rises resulting in about quarter of the heat generated being lost through the roof of an un-insulated home. Insulating the roof space of your home is the simplest, most cost-effective way of saving energy and reducing your heating bills. Insulation should be applied to the loft area to a depth of at least 270mm, both between the joists and above as the joists themselves create a "heat bridge" and transfer heat to the air above. With modern insulating techniques and materials, it's still possible to use the space for storage or as a habitable space with the use of insulated floor panels. ​ Bill savings and things to be aware of: ​ Can save between £500-£690 a year on your fuel bills depending on property size (Figures from the Energy Saving Trust and assume property is a gas heated home and sized between a Mid-terrace house to a detached home).
