12/04/2010 - Energy Efficient Windows.
Energy efficient windows can reduce the carbon footprint of a typical
home by 10%!
The government has bombarded the
Industry with new initiatives and directives
all aimed to reduce carbon footprints.
A significant issue unique to windows is that
U-values are no longer the critical factor.
As windows allow the inward transmission of
energy, the energy rating is a key factor.
Windows allow the inward transmission of
energy via solar gain.
By utilising Planitherm Total +, argon gas & low iron glass within our sealed unit configuration, the U-value remains at a low 1.4Wm2K but increases solar gain to a massive 78%. (A)
B for FREE : All glazed windows supplied by us are rated B at no extra cost.
A rated windows are easy to order, just tick the box to have low iron glass added.
Remember our A or B ratings are for white & ALL foiled options.
To make life even easier you can use our FREE online costing system to prepare customer quotations, allowing you to upload your logo & customise your frame specifications.
