Planet's A-Rated Windows

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. Choose the most energy efficient double

| 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 EnergiMAXTM 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 Planet South Lakes 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.
