Reduce Heat Loss, Noise And Condensation

Many people will be looking to insulate their homes during the winter as it is widely

known that insulating a home is a great start to cutting down on the amount of heat lost.

Getting your walls insulated is very important as around 33% of heat is lost through the walls. Failing to have your walls insulated means that you will be using your heating system more regularly which in turn will increase your monthly energy bills as well as increasing the amounts of CO2 you emit. When you find a fitter to come and insulate your walls it is a good idea to get double glazing installed at the same time.

Getting insulation and double glazing done at the same time will be more cost effective for homeowners as the fitter and builders will be able to them both during the same job. Double glazing is a very effective product to have as you will not only reduce the heat loss in your home but also the noise and condensation. Reducing noise levels can be particularly useful as the festive period go into overdrive with Christmas and New Years Eve getting closer.

Condensation is a problem at this time of year as the weather gets colder. Condensation has an effect on any wallpaper you may have near the window and can damage it so double glazing can help here too. Of course, the big advantage of having double glazing is that you can keep your house warmer for longer without using your heating system too long. It also helps lower the CO2 emissions from your house so you can do your bit for the environment as well as saving some money.

Lowering your CO2 emissions will come in handy if a government proposal goes through stating that each household has a limit on the amount of CO2 emissions and fossil fuels they use. If this limit is reached then you will have to buy more credits. At the same time if you do not use all your credits then you will be able to recoup some money from it. This proposal is aimed to ensure Britain hits its 2020 emissions targets.

By installing some high quality yet cheap uPVC windows you will see your energy bills tumble and any opportunity to save money should be taken advantage of right now.
