If you’re a homeowner in Thornton-Cleveleys looking to cut energy bills and make your home more sustainable, investing in energy efficiency is a smart move.
At West Coast Electrical, we help local residents upgrade their homes with practical, cost-effective improvements that make a noticeable difference.
Here are five top energy-saving upgrades that can benefit homes across Thornton-Cleveleys and the wider Fylde Coast.
1. Loft and Wall Insulation
Insulation plays a crucial role in keeping your home warm in winter and cool in summer. Yet many properties in Thornton-Cleveleys still have insufficient loft or cavity wall insulation—especially older houses.
Upgrading your insulation reduces heat loss, improves comfort and lowers your reliance on heating systems. While we don’t install insulation directly, our team can advise on energy-saving improvements during any electrical work, rewires, or renovations you’re planning.
2. Double and Triple Glazing
If your home still has single-glazed windows, replacing them with energy-efficient glazing is one of the most effective ways to cut heat loss. Modern double or triple glazing not only helps regulate indoor temperatures but also reduces draughts and outside noise.
Thornton-Cleveleys homes exposed to coastal weather particularly benefit from the added protection and thermal efficiency that high-performance glazing provides.
3. Upgrade to Energy-Efficient Appliances
Replacing outdated appliances with modern, energy-efficient ones can reduce your electricity usage significantly. Fridges, freezers, washing machines and dishwashers are all available in A-rated or above models that consume far less energy than older units.
If you’re upgrading your kitchen or need additional sockets, circuit upgrades, or a new consumer unit installed, our electricians in Thornton-Cleveleys can ensure everything is set up safely and professionally.
4. LED Lighting Upgrades in Thornton-Cleveleys Homes
One of the easiest and most affordable ways to improve your home’s efficiency is by switching to LED lighting. LEDs use far less power and last much longer than traditional bulbs.
West Coast Electrical provides full LED lighting upgrades across Thornton-Cleveleys—from replacing existing fittings to designing new lighting schemes for extensions, kitchens or media walls. Whether you want to create mood lighting or reduce your energy bills, we can help.
5. Solar Panels and Battery Storage – Thornton-Cleveleys Renewable Energy Experts
For homeowners who want to take control of their energy use, installing a solar PV system with battery storage is a powerful solution. Solar panels generate clean electricity during the day, while a battery system stores the surplus to use later—helping you reduce your reliance on the grid.

Whether you’re considering a full solar system or a battery add-on, we offer honest advice and high-quality installations tailored to your home.
