Why wool is best

Wool insulation not only keeps your house warm in the winter and cool in the summer, it conserves precious energy resources and cuts your electricity bills.

Wool insulation has benefits others can’t match. Because of wool's natural ability to absorb and desorb moisture, the wool acts like an evaporative cooler and heater, cooling when it’s hot and warming up the house when it’s cold. This has been proven by the CSIRO with tests done in Central Australia where the temperatures are extreme.

Wool Industries Australasia PL is a company that manufactures quality thermal and acoustic insulation from sheeps wool. Its acoustic product AcoustiWOOL 1000 has passed the stringent testing procedures of the Sydney Aircraft Noise Insulation Project (SANIP) project managers. Is it a wonder that insulation adds to the resale value of your home?


Cool in summer
Thermowool stops the summer heat from entering through your ceiling, keeping your home around 7°C cooler. Wall insulation prevents up to 66% of heat flowing in through the walls. Your air conditioner will be much more efficient and cheaper to run if your home is protected with Thermowool insulation.


Warm in winter

Thermowool seals in the warmth keeping your home much cosier in winter. Without insulation, about 66% of heat in your home is lost through walls & ceilings. With Thermowool installed in your ceiling you’ll save up to 33% on your fuel bills. (With wall insulation as well, you’ll cut your heating bills by up to 66% - so your insulation soon pays for itself! Because you’re saving energy you’ll also be helping to save the environment.


Accoustic tests were carried out on the wool product according to Australian Standard AS1191. The tests were conducted at the National Acoustic Laboratories in Sydney. AcoustiWOOL effected sound transmission loss in the range 1.44dB to 9.69dB. Aircraft noise is a low frequency noise ranging from 100Hz to about 300Hz you will note from the graph that the wool provided its best noise attenuation in that 100Hz to 300Hz range.  


Reduce Noise
Thermowool insulation absorbs sound, reducing outside noise and providing a sound barrier between rooms in your house. (A quiet bonus you’ll enjoy all year round!)
