1 Double Glazed Windows Improve Indoor Temperature
Did you know that as much as 35% of all heat entering the home is done via the windows? We lose a further 40% via the ceiling into the roof space. With Thermal Insulation for roofs, we can reduce the loss via the ceiling by as much as 90%.
Fitting Double Glazing improves indoor temperature by 4-6 degrees in summer and winter. We will reduce the heat entering the home via the windows by 75%.
On hot summer days, the radiant heat from the sun does not readily enter the home as the double glazing reduces heat gain by 75%. Also, in winter, the warm air created in the house is not lost when it is cold.
Although double-glazed windows are expensive, the long-term financial benefits are great. We must look at this option as a long-term investment that will offer years of monthly energy savings.
2 Block Outside Traffic Noise
One of the best benefits of double-glazed windows is noise pollution. If you live near a busy road or a restaurant, you will know all about noise at night when you want to sleep. Also, note that noise pollution works both ways. If your family is loud, you don’t have to stress affecting the neighbours. You will notice the difference by just closing the window.
3 Long Lifespan
It’s no secret that aluminium has a longer lifespan than wooden window frames. For this reason, the long-term savings are significant. Also, there is no maintenance on the Aluminium windows.
4 Energy Saving
What’s great about energy-saving is that it will be lifelong energy savings. It is estimated that 20% of savings will be achieved with double glazed windows. In thermally insulated homes with compliant Insulation and double glazed windows, we expect to recover the Insulation cost in under three years.
