Q-Bot has worked with Energy Saving Trust (EST), a trusted and independent organisation, to verify and certify energy savings claims following the installation of Q-Bot’s robotic underfloor insulation in homes. The results of EST’s modelling demonstrate increases in EPC score and the reduction in energy bills after applying Q-Bot’s underfloor insulation in all property types. This further supports the well-established position that floor insulation improves the energy efficiency of homes.

Underfloor insulation is one of the most overlooked methods to insulate homes because traditional methods can be complex, disruptive and expensive. This article debunks the most common myths and shows that Q-Bot's robotic under floor insulation allows provides a hassle-free and efficient way to keep your feet warm for good.

An in-depth study was carried out by Leeds Beckett University before and after Q-Bot installed insulation under the floor of an end-terrace bungalow in the North of England. It was found that applying Q-Bot’s underfloor insulation reduces heat loss through the floor by 77% and draughts by 39%, resulting in a 24% reduction in the Heat Transfer Coefficient.

Q-Bot and its housing partners already have had a strong impact on fuel poverty by making homes warmer and more energy efficient. This means significantly improving the living conditions of tenants whilst reducing their carbon footprint. Together, we have delivered affordable warmth and improved energy efficiency to 1000’s of homes across the country.

Uninsulated floors contribute to up to 25% of the heat loss for a typical home. Discover the most efficient options to insulate your floor from underfloor insulation to covering your floorboards and floor heating.
