Are there really any benefits of double glazing? Speedy Glass Derby Ltd are providers of top quality
double glazing in Derby, and explain why replacing your windows is so important.

There’s no doubt that energy is lost through the windows in your home. If you have single paned
windows, you will notice this more, than homes with double glazing.

There are many benefits of double glazing. Most importantly, double glazed windows are more
energy efficient. Double glazed windows insulate your home much better than single glazing
windows, which means less time with your heating on, so you can save money on heating bills as
well as reducing your carbon footprint. You could save around £170 a year on your energy bills just
by replacing your windows.

If you really want to have a positive impact on the environment, then you can look at different
materials for your window frames. Wooden frames often have a lower environmental impact, but
require more maintenance. UPVC window frames are often the most commonly used frames as they
last a long time.

If you really want to make the most of your windows in the colder months, try heavier and darker
curtains, as heavier materials and colours help stop heat escaping, they will reduce heat loss and
help cut draughts in your rooms.
