think that glassfibre baths seem to hold the heat in the water a bit better.

Assuming that the bath will be boxed in, then pack loft insulation
around and under the bath as you fit it. One of those times when DIY

expected or seen by the client. Keeps the water lovely and warm for
those loooonnnng baths
