Benefits of Energy-Efficient Windows & Doors

Making the move to energy-efficient windows and doors for your Dorset home is one of the best decisions you can make – not only for your wallet but the environment as well. By using less energy to keep your home at the desired temperature, you can prevent your heating system from continuously running, this reducing your carbon footprint.

Save Money on Monthly Bills: With superior framing and insulation, comes great savings each month on your energy bills. By being able to keep your warm air in your home in the winter it means you won’t have to turn on your central heating as much. Lessening the dependency on your central heating system meaning that it could last longer.

 

Better Insulation: Energy-efficient windows and doors are excellent at keeping the weather outside when you want it that way. Tight seals prevent cold weather from the winter from squeezing its way in and raising your energy bills each month. They also block heat from the summer sun from getting into your home through the glass thanks to a special UV coating placed on the glass.

Environmentally Friendly: Most central heating systems require fossil fuels to keep them running, and with energy-efficient windows and doors, you can prevent the need to use them as much, especially in the harsher seasons.

Reduction in Maintenance: Since energy-efficient windows and doors keep condensation to a minimum, it does not get the chance to build up. You will also see less mould and mildew, which is excellent news for those suffering from allergies, asthma, and other respiratory problems.

Noise Reduction: Thanks to a strong seal on the doors and windows, paired with the type of glass used keeps unwanted noises from getting into your home. Keep those birds from bugging you in the morning and no longer worry about construction outside the house from letting you sleep. You can also turn up the volume on your surround sound because noise prevention works both ways!

Furniture and Rig Protection: There is a special coating placed on your energy-efficient windows which not only help keeps the heat out but blocks the UV rays. If your furniture or rugs see prolonged exposure, they can begin to fade in colour and even be damaged over time.
