Energy Efficient uPVC Windows - The Facts
Contrary to popular belief,‘double-glazed’ windows (fitted before 2002) are no longer the most energy efficient.
Before you invest your money in fitting new windows, check out the facts. You will save more on your fuel bills and reduce your carbon emissions if you buy Energy Efficient uPVC Windows.
At first glance Energy Efficient Windows may seem a bit more expensive. Even though they cost slightly more to begin with, it’s worth considering all the benefits before you make a decision to buy less efficient and possibly cheaper windows.
Saving money on your fuel bills
Cost is always high up on the list of considerations when you’re investing in your home. Energy Efficient uPVC Windows can noticeably reduce fuel bills as up to 20% of the heat lost from a home is through windows.
If you have single-glazed windows, you could save £156 every year on your energy bills if you install Energy Efficient Windows.This could increase to £266 if your house is heated by electricity. And the cost of fuel is rising all the time!
Climate change
Climate change is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, environmental concerns of this century. Being an individual or householder, it seems almost impossible to think of each one of us making a difference. But if we all took steps to use energy more efficiently – think of the power of millions of people. Homes are responsible for 28% of all UK CO2 emissions and yet we tend to be more conscious of the negative impact of the airline industry which contributes just 5.5% of UK CO2 emissions.
Comfort
Energy Efficient uPVC Windows can result in warmer interior surfaces during the winter and cooler interior surfaces during the summer. This makes for a more comfortable home environment at all times of the year.
