Assuming a minimum of 33% saving in electricity the annual saving due to roof insulation shall be Rs.74,487/=

Period of Recovery of Total Investment

Spent of insulation                   Rs.76,000       9.2 months (less then one year)

Annual Saving                         Rs.74,487

Note:

" The above calculations are based on a comparative statement of two ideal houses, one with Spray  Polyurethane  Roof  Insulation  and  the  other one without it. Both these houses have cavity  walls  and  sandwiched  glass  windows. If  however the house does not contain these features then the improvement in energy consumption will be lower, approaching to 20%."
