How Much Do You Really Save with Good Insulation?

The Invisible Investment

When you visit a show house, you look at the floors and kitchen furniture. But the most important part of your house is what you don't see: what is inside the walls.

Your House's 'Coat'

Our houses use a layering system that works like technical mountain clothing:

  • EIFS (Exterior): An exterior 'coat' of high-density polystyrene that prevents cold from touching the structure.
  • Mineral Wool (Interior): Filling in the partitions that traps air and insulates acoustically.
  • Double Glazing: Double windows that break the thermal bridge.

The Impact on Your Pocket

Studies indicate that a house with current regulatory insulation (like ours) can spend up to 40% less on heating than an old uninsulated masonry house.

In a cold winter in Santiago or the south, this can mean saving hundreds of thousands of pesos a year. Your mortgage is fixed, but your energy bills are not. Building efficiently is the best financial decision in the long run.
