The Importance of Energy Efficient Windows

Energy Efficient Windows

Why upgrade to energy efficient windows? An average home loses 30% of its heat or conditioned air. This is mostly because of outdated technology, poorly sealed doors, and single-pane windows. This is why it is important, when choosing new windows, to make a decision that considers all aspects of energy saving. New windows will not only stop heat from escaping your home but will also reduce your home’s carbon footprint. Initially, energy-efficient windows might cost more at installation but you will see a significant saving in your bills going forward.

Here we will discuss a few reasons as to why energy-efficient windows can make a major difference in your home.

Energy Efficiency Save You Money

One of the best ways to save money is by installing new windows. When you replace your old windows with newer models, you are insulating your house further which means a reduction in loss of heat and cool air. This will allow you to install a smaller and less expensive heating & cooling system. According to the Energy Saving Trust, on average, energy-efficient windows save up to £300/year on energy bills in a three-bedroom house. You can save up to £1200 in 4 years and have a nice holiday you have always wanted.

Energy Efficient Windows Reduce Your Carbon Footprint

When you use less energy you will have a smaller carbon footprint – simple as that.
