Make your home more sustainable, step by step

Want to live more sustainably and save on your energy costs? With a few smart adjustments, you can make your home more comfortable, environmentally friendly, and ready for the future. Below are five effective measures that will have an immediate impact—whether you want to start small or go big.

Insulate your home smartly

Prevent heat loss with roof, wall, and floor insulation and immediately save on your energy bill.

Choose solar panels for your roof

Generate your own green energy and reduce your dependence on energy suppliers.

Replace single glazing with HR++ or triple glazing

Modern glazing keeps heat inside better and dampens outside noise.

Switch to a (hybrid) heat pump

A sustainable alternative to the central heating boiler that uses heat from the air or ground.

Install smart energy-saving devices

Smart thermostats, LED lighting, and energy-efficient appliances help you monitor and reduce your consumption.
