If you ask most homeowners where they believe the draughts that invade their home come from they will probably point towards their doors or the roof
. There has been a lot of research carried out into the heat lost through a home and the results are quite conclusive. The conclusions report that although heat is lost through all aspects of a home, namely the roof and walls, up to 28% is lost through windows which are old or lacking thermal efficiency standards.
Although, the outside air can pass into a home from almost all areas the most common cause of these problems stems from the windows. Old windows tend to lose their insulation properties after a while as they start to shrink and allow gaps to form. The British weather creates havoc for poor windows to keep their shape and stay tight, functional and therefore thermally efficient.
The finger of blame can also be pointed at windows when you suffer with high energy bills. To compensate for any heat that is passing through their windows and any cold air that is passing into the home, many homeowners will turn their heating up and leave it on for long periods of time. The need for turning up the heating and thus your energy bills is eradicated if you replace your double glazing in Doncaster.
