If you’ve read our blog on the lowdown on double glazed windows then you will have learnt that double glazing has many benefits. So, it’s kind of hard to not jump on the double glazing bandwagon, especially when you know that your home’s energy efficiency can be improved, which in turn will reduce your bills. Is double glazing worth it? We think so.
When the choice is single glazing or double glazing. it’s a no brainer really. By choosing to have double glazing installed, your house will become more energy efficient. How? Well, double glazing windows retain heat therefore your fuel bills will be a lot lower as you won’t feel the need to constantly crank up the heating!
According to the Energy Savings Trust, up to 18% of heat can be lost in an uninsulated home, causing more issues to arise, such as higher noise level from outside and condensation. Take a look here to find out how to reduce condensation.
If you’re going to spend money having new windows installed, you may as well go for the best. Single glazing has a bad reputation for poor insulation so there’s no point in wasting time looking at them. These windows require more energy to maintain a comfortable temperature therefore you’re throwing money down the drain (or out the window) unnecessarily.
Whilst you may think of it as an expensive home improvement now, you’re unlikely to have to splash out on new windows in your current home again. Unless you plan on staying in your home for 20 years. That’s right, double glazing typically lasts for around two decades, so you’ll definitely benefit from having them installed.
