Energy loss through old windows
Older windows are often single glazed or seals that have been eroded from the weather. This means in the winter months where the heating is likely to go on, you will be using more energy to make up for the heat that is escaping through the outdated windows. Up to 25-30% of a homes heat can be lost through windows if they’re not energy efficient.
What makes Formula One Windows better?
Our windows are designed with energy efficiency at the forefront here is the breakdown:
A-rated energy efficiency: Our windows are the highest standard of manufacturing to reduce heat loss.
Double or triple glazing: With multiple layers of glass it will reduce the need for artificial heating and make it harder for heat to escape.
Insulated frames: PVCu and Aluminium options both with thermal breaks to stop cold bridging.
Tight seals and weatherproofing: Allows your homes temperature to remain consistent by preventing leaks and draughts.
All of these features work together to create a thermal barrier. Keeping you warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
