Posted under Blog by Ruth

Thankfully spring has now sprung and the cold weather seems to be mostly behind us. However, this doesn’t mean you should stop thinking about installing energy efficient measures in your home. In fact, double glazing has a number of benefits beyond increasing energy efficiency:

Keeping Your Home Quiet: The way that the layer of air is trapped between two panes of glass in your windows will mean that fewer sound waves will get into your home – perfect for those who live in noisy areas as want to keep the sound outside.

Reduce Your Carbon Footprint: If you really want to feel as though you’re doing something good for the environment, double glazing will help you to noticeably reduce your carbon footprint, i.e. the amounts of carbon dioxide that you are responsible for, which in turn is responsible for global warming.

Cheaper Energy Bills: Because of the fact that double glazed windows include a layer of air, this will trap the heat inside your home and will make it warmer even when you turn down your heating. On average, this will save you around £135 in a year.

Less Condensation: If you find condensation build up frustrating, the good news is that double glazing reduces this dramatically. You won’t have to worry about that build up of mould anymore!

A More Comfortable Environment: In general, double glazing will leave your home more comfortable thanks to the fact that it’s warmer, it doesn’t let draughts in, and it gives you some peace and quiet!

The costs of installing double glazing will vary from home to home, however each year you will see more and more savings.
