- Ventilation: Keep background ventilation in mind in rooms with gas appliances; slotted laths or a part-open setting help.

Frequently asked questions
Do roller shutters really insulate?
Insulated shutters reduce heat loss when they are closed, mainly at night, and stop solar heat in summer. They complement good windows rather than replace them.
Is an insulated garage door worth it?
If the garage is attached to the house, sits under a room, or is used as a workspace, the warmer and quieter space is usually worth the difference.
Do I need permission for insulated roller shutters & doors in Falmouth?
External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
