Predictably, E.ON has announced a rise of 8.7 per cent for customers on a dual-fuel bill. This means that each of our big six suppliers have now raised their prices this winter, making the location of a cheaper energy tariff increasingly difficult for homeowners.
Expensive energy is unfortunately the way forward as prices are expected to reach further record highs in the coming years which makes the purchasing of energy efficient windows essential.
At the current time it is of crucial importance that your property utilises any energy produced by your boiler as efficiently as possible and only double glazing in Stockport, double glazing in Manchester or double glazing in Oldham can aid the cause due to its superb insulation. No trace of heat loss will become evident due to its ability to retain warmth and cut draughts out completely.
It performs so much more successfully than a single glazed window firstly because it comes with two panes of glass installed as opposed to one, and a frame purposely-built to provide strength, durability and toughness. None of the gradual wear and tear that occurs in a wooden window will happen when you get them replaced for a UPVC or aluminium-based window.
Their effectiveness at providing consistent temperature control will ensure that you never have to over rely on your heating system and as a consequence see the price of your energy bills rise to a cost that they need not reach. The less you turn on your heating the more beneficial it also is for the environment as it means less burning of fossil fuels which can be damaging when done to excess.
There may be some people who do not have the cash to get double glazing installed in every single room in their home but that does not mean you cannot still purchase it. Installing it solely in those rooms you use most regularly or want to be in guaranteed comfort will suffice. The savings that you attract as a result of installing those windows may then give you the funds necessary to double glaze the rest of the house.
However, to solely label double glazing as being purely useful for energy efficiency purposes would be doing it an injustice as it can also improve aesthetics, secure a property and transform the way in which people view your household.
Do not let expensive energy dictate whatever finances you have.
