Q-Bot Underfloor Insulation
What is Q-Bot?
Concept Heating are the Accredited Q-Bot Installer for Lancashire, Greater Manchester and West Yorkshire.
Q-Bot is an intelligent robot that goes under floors to spray insulation under floorboards with minimal disruption. The insulation immediately reduces the heat lost through the floor and the draughts, ensuring a healthy and energy-efficient home. Compared to traditional underfloor insulation, Q-Bot delivers better results with less disruption to your home. Q-Bot underfloor insulation is an accredited, awarding winning solution that has been proven to reduce fuel poverty by improving the energy efficiency of homes, whilst substantially reducing their carbon footprint.

The Concept Process
1. Book Eligibility Check & Technical Survey
At the survey we make a small access hatch to examine the void’s height, moisture level, layout, piping, and the condition of the floorboards.
2. Installation
The robot goes into the void through an access hatch. As the robot travels through the void, a detailed 3D map is built of the underfloor space. This final check helps assess all installation details and any risks. The robot sprays layers of insulation to the underside of the floorboards, with a typical thickness of 12cm. The insulation expands to fill all the gaps.
