Are you throwing money away on wasted energy every year? Our latest uPVC casement windows are ‘A’ rated under the Windows Energy Rating scheme. That means they reduce annual net energy loss to ZERO, making them the most eco-friendly around.

Over recent years our society is becoming increasingly aware of environmental issues, such as global warming, and the responsibilities we have to help save our planet.

By choosing the right PVC windows for your home you can significantly reduce your carbon footprint and save yourself money on energy bills.

Choose the most energy efficient double glazed windows available on the market!

The government has introduced the Window Energy Ratings scheme. By using the same ratings system that items such as fridges and washing machines have been using for years, it is now possible to rate a window from any given installer.

The finished window combination is independently tested, and awarded a rating from A to G. Those achieving a C-rating or above are allowed to display the Energy Saving Recommended blue label, demonstrating they have been designed, manufactured and tested to provide a good level of overall thermal efficiency.

So, if C-rated is energy efficient, how much better does an A-rated window perform?

Well, its simple really. An A-rated uPVC window will not lose any heat whatsoever from your home. None. Zero. It’s a little more complex than that, but the principle really is true.

By installing Conservatory Outlet’s latest energy saving A-Rated windows you will be helping improve the overall performance of your home which will not only reduce your heating bills and CO2 emissions but it could improve the value of your property and speed up any future sale.

Just how much difference can the sealed unit make?
Energy ratings don’t just now apply to fridges, boilers and windows – they apply to your entire home. When you come to sell your house, you will need a Homebuyers Information Pack, or HIP for short. As well as your heating type and things such as loft insulation, the windows in your home contribute hugely to the overall rating. Fit A-rated windows and you’re well on your way to an A-rated home.

Because the glass area is much bigger than the frame area, thermal improvements in the glass unit itself go a very long way to help make windows efficient. So much so, the choice of sealed units is by far the biggest factor in how much energy is lost, or saved, through your windows. In fact, by fitting the most efficient sealed units, you can reduce your carbon footprint by as much as 2 Tonnes of CO2 every year.

Our new window is designed with this in mind. Manufactured from a combination of the very latest materials and glass types, ThermaglassMAX constantly works to retain heat within your home.

Nothing new there you might think. But did you realize that through a combination of glass types and the heating effect of the sun, ThermaglassMAX south facing windows are so efficient they can even contribute to heating your home.

Windows that heat your house? Now there’s a novel idea.
