Up to 25% of the heat generated in a home can be lost through inefficient windows and doors. However by installing ‘A’ rated energy efficient double glazed windows and doors you can reduce the amount of heat lost considerably. As the name suggests double glazing works by having two panes of glass which are sealed together in a unit. A small gap is left between the two panes of glass which is filled with a special gas. It is this gap which acts as an insulator and helps to keep the heat locked inside the property. As less heat is escaping from your property you are able to turn your heating down helping to protect the environment and save you money.

By far the most popular type of frames for double glazing are uPVC frames. These are highly energy efficient as there are no gaps for draughts. They are also very low maintenance, timber framed windows and doors need to be treated every few years to prevent them from rotting and warping. Whereas with uPVC frames there is no such maintenance required simply wash them with a cloth and warm soapy water from time to time and they will stay looking great for many years to come.

If you are keen to save money on your gas and electricity bills and improve the energy efficiency of your home then you should take the time out to consider installing A rated energy efficient double glazed uPVC windows and doors.

A variety of attractive double glazing windows and doors are available on the market for relatively inexpensive prices. Traditionally windows and doors for residential properties have been manufactured using wood but recent trends have indicated a shift towards PVC windows. These PVC windows, doors and conservatories provide a great finish and have many advantages over the traditional wooden frames. You can also choose between casement or sash windows depending in the style of your home.

Features of double glazed windows

• Double glazed windows are internally beaded windows where the glass is held from the inside and are considered more secure than traditional wooden framed windows.

• Most PVC windows and PVC doors are multi-walled with internal reinforcements made from either aluminum or galvanized steel.

• Frames are available in a variety of different colours. The standard colour for PVC windows and doors is white although there are various colour options and wood effect windows available like golden oak and rosewood.

• PVC windows are much better for insulation purposes and have proven to be much more energy efficient.

• Double glazed windows are also much stronger and have many additional security features to protect your home from intruders.
Mid Wales Windows based in Newtown, Powys install the very latest high quality PVC windows and doors with added security features for total peace of mind.

With an average energy bill set to climb over £1400 in 2009 (from under £690 in 2005), the Government has given a commitment to help consumers improve household energy efficiency and permanently bring down energy bills.

Energy Efficient double glazing windows
As the nation waits for confirmation of where Government support will be given, many organisations are offering advice and guidance into where and how families can make changes that will cut their household energy costs.

Figures from the Energy Savings Trust suggest that if everyone undertook a number of simple measures including:

Fitting energy saving light bulbs, double glazed windows, installing a condensing boiler, cavity wall and loft insulation and jackets for hot water tanks, UK households could reduce energy bills by over £270 a year and save over £1.9bn in fuel costs.

Mid Wales representative said: ‘It is increasingly becoming apparent that current fuel price increases are set to have dramatic effects on many people’s household bills.

‘But making energy efficient changes, ahead of the winter months, could lead to savings of thousand’s of pound on future fuel bills – as well as adding to a house’s value. If people are considering making improvements we would urge them to look at the most energy efficient options.

‘Installing double glazing for example, cuts heat lost through windows by half. At Mid Wales Windows we fit the very latest energy saving PVC double glazing, which offers potential savings of over £110 per year per household’.

The Financial Times reports that the commission is expected to ask member states today (December 3rd) to allow local authorities to use EU funds to pay for energy-saving measures in low-income households, such as energy efficient windows.

According to the commission, the move would create new jobs, reduce energy consumption in Europe and bring down household bills.

Frauke Thies, of Greenpeace, said the plans were a big part of the European move towards using energy more efficiently.

She added: “For low-income households, energy costs are still making up a large share of the domestic budget.

“These sorts of households might hesitate to make investments in double glazing or putting in a more efficient boiler.”
