Insulation savings and surface dew point Insulation savings and surface dew point

Quick start

Compare insulation heat savings and a separate surface dew-point estimate.

  1. Enter area, U-values, degree days and energy costs
  2. Add air humidity and an independent surface temperature
  3. Calculate, compare scenarios and export

Insulation savings and surface dew point

Compare annual heat loss before and after insulation, simple payback and cumulative savings. Separately compare a surface temperature with the air dew point.

Heat loss = U-value × area × heating degree days × 24 / 1000. Purchased-energy saving divides the heat saving by the entered heating performance ratio. Dew point uses the Magnus approximation.

Energy and simple payback

Separate surface-condensation estimate

Use a local annual degree-day value and one currency. A boiler efficiency may be below 1; a heat-pump ratio may exceed 1. Savings exclude price changes, cooling, air leakage, thermal bridges, maintenance and the time value of future cash flows. The independently entered surface temperature is not derived from the insulation, and this is not an interstitial-condensation or mould assessment.
