One of the common issues homeowners face when installing an attic ladder or stairs is the impact on the thermal envelope. Traditional attic stairs often result in air leakage, leading to energy loss and increased heating or cooling costs. However, our new insulated and airtight attic stairs are specifically designed to overcome this problem. They allow homeowners to access their ceiling space without compromising the airtightness of the home, and significantly contribute to reducing energy consumption and maintaining a comfortable temperature within the living spaces. Our range of attic stairs are the only insulated and airtight attics stairs available in NZ.
The Polar Extrem, with its extreme insulation properties, allows homeowners to access their ceiling space without compromising the airtightness of the home and significantly contributes to reducing energy consumption and maintaining a comfortable temperature within the living spaces.
Here are some key features and benefits of the Polar Extrem attic ladder:
