Bradford welcomes Federal Government initiative 

Bradford Insulation welcomes the launch by the Environment Minister Peter Garrett of the Federal Government's early installation guidelines to provide free insulation to Australian homes.

Under this package, the Federal Government will offer major incentives for owner-occupiers and landlords to access insulation and have it installed. The guidelines released by Minister Garrett show how homeowners can access the free insulation.

"We welcome the Federal Government's acknowledgement of the importance of energy efficiency in housing and this further stimulus to the housing sector", said Ray Thompson, Group Marketing Manager for Bradford Insulation.

"These initiatives are good news for home owners and renters, the building industry and great news for the environment." he said.

Insulation in houses can significantly reduce energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions. Ceiling insulation and energy efficient windows are the most effective ways to improve the comfort and energy efficiency of homes." Ray explained.

It's important that people make the most of this initiative by selecting the right product and the right installer for their needs." Ray said.

This announcement comes on the 75th anniversary of Bradford Insulation, who provide Australian made insulation products designed to stand up to the harsh Australian climate, keeping families' energy bills down and comfort levels up.

The free Bradford Comfortchoice website program can navigate consumers through a range of energy efficient products available to help them make an informed choice on how comfortable and energy efficient they want their homes and how to actively reduce their carbon footprint by being more environmentally responsible.

"Installation is as important and Bradford has rigorous training requirements for its installation professionals, including Justrite Insulation in Canberra where the Minister launched the new guidelines. This ensures customers receive the highest quality installation to maximise the effectiveness and longevity of their insulation". Ray said.
