Becoming energy efficient is more in-demand than ever in the current economic and environmental climate, with the focus primarily on becoming more resourceful and finding long-term solutions for limiting the impact that even the most rudimentary day-to-day actions have on the environment.
Whilst it may be common knowledge that all properties – however large or small – lose heat through their windows, there are a number of different things that a person can do to limit the amount of heat that escapes through the windows.
Losing heat through windows results in homeowners paying unnecessarily for heat that isn’t being contained, and thus not being used. This can also have a detrimental effect on the environment, as it contributes to global warming due to the burning of more fossil fuels to heat the home.
Glazing refurbishment from industry specialists will ensure that the heat in your home is as contained as possible, and that you and your family are paying to use the heating to its full potential. You will only pay for the heat you use, and your home will be warmer during this year’s heavily anticipated freezing cold winter.
Paying to have glazing maintenance taken out on the windows in your home to make them double glazed will ensure that heat loss is prevented as much as possible. This is because the gap between the two panes of glass in a double glazed window act as a barrier; a barrier which has been proven by The Energy Saving Trust to result in the average homeowner’s bill being reduced to £130 a year on average when compared to single glazed windows.
Glazing repairs and upgrades to make windows double glazed is estimated to cut CO2 emissions by 650kg a year.
With this simple upgrade from a leading name brand who specialise in creating innovative, modern solutions for heat loss in the home, you could be well on your way to finding the long-term solution to climate change you’ve been looking for – whilst saving yourself a packet on heating bills in the process.
