Energy Efficient Windows really make a difference!
Over 23% of heat lost from the home is lost through poorly insulated windows. And while one third of Britain’s housing stock still has only single glazed windows it means that, as a nation, we are throwing away some £1.5 billion every year, and pumping needles CO2 into the atmosphere. I have been arguing for a while now that the benefits of Energy Rated windows should be recognised by our Government, but that’s another story…
Thermal imaging technology was recently used by Lister Trade Frames, a competitor who needs applauding for creating images which clearly show the difference Energy Efficient windows really make!
The picture above shows the original single glazed bay window. The image below shows the difference in installing an A Rated uPVC double glazed window:
Photographs of the bay window clearly show the amount of heat being lost (recorded in white and red) before the installation. Afterwards, the picture has dramatically changed showing very little heat lost to the outside recorded by the cold blue in the picture.
