Apart from the obvious comfort and fresh new-home feeling, one of the biggest differences we’ve noticed since moving in earlier this year is how much lower our energy bills are. Having previously lived in an older property, the difference has been really noticeable. It’s been great to enjoy a more comfortable home while also seeing a significant reduction in our monthly energy costs.
