To do this, all our products have been researched, tried and tested by members of our team before we add them to the shop to ensure that they are 100% fit for purpose and are items that we genuinely love. We add them to our range because we believe you’ll love them just as much as we do!

In fact, for most washing machines this process takes less than 10 minutes. The filters are compatible with all types of washing machines.

The Chimney Sheep® draught excluder works by being a little bit bigger than the flue so it can grip onto the sides and hold itself in place. The amount of overlap doesn’t matter too much as the felt is squashy and can fit into a range of gaps. Reduces air pollution in the home – a Chimney Sheep® reduces the number of air changes in a property so considerably reduces the amount of air pollution that enters the home. Those are the three types of insulation, which can be applied in walls, floors and ceilings. There are also some effective wool underlay products in the SilentWool range.
