Upgrading your windows doesn't just improve the aesthetics of your home; it can also lead to significant energy savings. Many homeowners are unaware of how much energy is lost through outdated or inefficient windows. With an upgrade you can reduce your energy bills and create a more comfortable living space.



Understanding Energy Savings in New Timber Windows


Windows are a critical component of your home's energy efficiency. They are responsible for up to 30% of heat loss in a home during the winter months and can also lead to excessive heat gain in the summer. Understanding the different types of window upgrades available can help you make an informed decision that maximizes your energy savings.


Upgrading to energy-efficient windows involves replacing standard single glazed windows with double glazed ones. These give you superior insulation properties, keeping the cool air inside during summer and heat inside during winter.



Energy-Efficient Timber Windows


We specialise in reproduction of traditional timber sash and casement windows and doors, incorporating the latest double glazing technology, using the low e-coating as a standard (low-emission), preventing your home from heating up in the summer and retaining the warmth during the winter.


Argon or Krypton gas filled units in double glazing are minimising heat transfer and recude the condensation, leading to improved comfort and energy savings.



The Importance of Proper Installation


Even the best windows can fail to meet their energy-saving potential if they are not installed properly. Poor installation can lead to air leaks, allowing conditioned air to escape and unconditioned air to enter, which defeats the purpose of any upgrade.


Upgrading to energy-efficient windows is a wise investment that pays off in many ways in years to come, lowering your energy bills and enhancing your home's comfort and appeal.


Investing in your windows can yield impressive returns—not just in terms of financial savings, but also in the overall enjoyment of your living space.
