(Learning Modules / Geography / Geography of energy) In the context of heating a building, insulation includes any materials used to reduce the rate of heat loss from a building. This may involve fibreglass rolls in the roof space, polystyrene sheets in the cavity walls or a range of other filler materials which conduct heat poorly.
