Draft Proof

 

If your room feels cold or draughty, it's likely due to air freely flowing in through gaps in your windows and doors. While you can take some practical steps to mitigate this, such as purchasing heavy curtains to trap air and insulate your home, significant gaps may let in more than just air—they can also allow water, insects, and waste your heating or cooling energy.

Draughts, caused by cold air entering or warm air escaping your home, lead to higher heating bills. Installing double glazed windows and double glazed doors can reduce these draughts, making your home more comfortable and minimizing temperature fluctuations. Our energy efficient windows, manufactured in Sydney, provide a practical solution.

By installing UPVC double glazed windows, you can achieve significant savings in electricity that will pay for your windows in 6-7 years, while reducing your CO2 emissions by about 100-150kg per year. For energy efficiency indicators, look for the U-value or R-value. U-value measures the overall heat transfer coefficient, indicating how well the window or door conducts heat; a lower U-value means better insulation.

Our windows have a U-value of 1.8, performing three times better than typical aluminium framed windows with values of 5.4-5.6. Given that windows can contribute to 15-40% energy loss in a building, installing the most energy efficient windows should be a priority for any homeowner.

Consider this: would you purchase an air conditioner that operates at only 85% or 60% capacity? If your windows and doors are draughty, that's essentially what you're doing. No matter your climate, lowering energy costs is smart. Let us show you how you can improve your home, save money, and benefit the environment with our high-quality double glazed windows and doors.
