We are continually developing our product to extend and expand our energy ratings range. Consquently, with the technological developments that take place we are continually researching the best route to deliver the most thermally efficient, quality product at a reasonable price. Due to this we have been able to increase the energy efficiency of our standard C and A rated casement windows to an energy rating of B and A+ respectively, at no extra cost to you.
We have a range of 8 window and door products which carry energy rating certificates from the BFRC. This includes and is not limited to our new A+ rated flush sash window, A rated bi-fold and patio doors, along with A rated vertical sliders. These certificates are in addition to the standard A rated casement window which has now been improved to an A+ rated casement window.
COMFORTABLE HOMES, COMFORTABLE BILLS
Windows play a vital role in conserving energy since 20% of the heat escaping from the average home is lost through windows*. Choosing the right combination of glazing and window frame is essential to improve the energy efficiency of your home, reduce the cost of energy bills and more importantly create a comfortable living environment for you and your family.
Our windows are made thermally efficient as standard to meet building regulations and beyond, to suit any budget. As part of our product range we feature an advanced multi-chambered window system for both the frame and the opening sash which helps prevent heat loss and enhances thermal efficiency. This means that we can manufacture windows that meet the highest energy efficiency ratings. Our standard casement window has recently been improved from a C rated casement window to an energy rating of B and a uvalue of 1.5, at no extra cost and from there our ratings get better.
With a range of energy rating certificates across our windows and doors, our products are able to greatly improve the energy efficiency of your home and reduce your energy bills. Our standard A rated casement window has now upgraded to an A+ rated with the option to increase it further to an A++ at an additional cost. We also now manufacture A rated vertical sliders along with A rated bi-fold and patio doors.
Cutting carbon dioxide emissions has been a top priority for both the Government and homeowners, to protect our environment and our wallets. Due to this, building regulations were updated in 2010 to improve the efficiency of both replacement and new build windows installed as standard. It changed again for new build properties as recently as 2013, in a move towards zero carbon.
