Try And Reduce Those Expensive Energy Bills With New Windows & Doors
We know that energy bills are a huge worry for lots of homeowners at the moment, not helped by the rising cost of petrol and food prices, and also the recent hike in National Insurance.
The energy price cap now stands at £1971, whereas prior to April, it was £1277. This is a 54% rise in the maximum a supplier can charge you for gas and electricity.
And things aren’t set to get better anytime soon, with a predicted price cap increase of £2600+ set to come into force from October.
With very few cheaper tariffs to switch to, what can you do to reduce your fuel costs?
Being more energy-savvy around the house will help, as will getting energy efficient windows and doors fitted.
Here’s why you should have them installed.
Energy Efficient Windows
As much as a fifth of heat lost from a home can occur due to the ineffective insulation offered by ageing windows, which readily let it pass through their frames and glazing.
Typical signs of windows contributing to leat loss are mould and moisture, the presence of cracks in the sealant, and when a flame flickers as you hold a candle close to your windows.
Upgrading to UPVC Extreme windows, for example, which are A+ rated as standard and approved by the Energy Saving Trust, could help you make a great annual saving.
Energy Efficient Doors
Heat loss could also be down to the inability of your front and rear doors to retain the heat produced by your boiler. The tests we’ve outlined above will also enable you to identify if your doors are at fault for heat loss.
Nowadays, all replacement doors are expected to have a U-value of at least 1.8 W/m² – you want a low U-value as the lower it is, the greater the standard of insulation provided by a door.
The U-values of our doors are impressive, so they could keep heat where it belongs, firmly inside your house, hopefully helping you save.
Because our guarantee is for 20 years, our energy efficient windows and doors will offer great performance for a significant length of time. So, what are you waiting for? Try and protect yourself against expensive energy and ask for a FREE window and / or door quote.
