houses can be insulated in many different ways, roof insulation can be installed into attic space, you can get cavity wall insulation, double glasing on the windows, draft excluders on the bottom of doorways, all of these help to keep the heat within the house and to prevent it from being lost to the oustide environment. Walls can be insulated externally with the use of an External Wall Insulation system, full details found in "The Complete Guide to External Wall Insulation" currently available via Ebay
