Looking for energy efficiencies in the home? Don't forget about blinds and shutters. 🪟✨ Windows are typically the weak point in the building facade and heat will always find its way to the colder surfaces. To maximise the effectiveness of the blinds, the smaller the gap between the sides of the blind and the window frame reveal, the better. Measure and fit tight to the window reveal to reduce heat loss. Read more about the energy saving properties of blinds and shutters ➡️ https://lnkd.in/er52_9F2 #BlindsMakeBetter

Is your loft insulation stuck in the past, leading to draughty rooms and soaring energy bills? Homes built before the 1980s often lack proper insulation, which is crucial for keeping heat in and cold out—impacting comfort and expenses. Wondering if it's time for an upgrade? Consider these signs: ➡️ Is your current insulation old, thin, or damaged? ➡️ Do you feel cold draughts coming from the ceiling? ➡️ Are your energy bills skyrocketing? Upgrading your loft insulation can have a transformative impact.

❄️ As winter approaches, quality insulation is key to staying cosy while cutting energy costs. Did you know up to 35% of heat escapes through walls, 25% through roofs, and 15% through floors in uninsulated homes? Solutions like internal wall insulation (IWI), loft storage insulation, room in roof insulation (RIR) and underfloor insulation (UFI) can make a huge difference. A whole-house approach to insulation maximises efficiency, and government-funded schemes may help with affordability. The benefits: ✅Lower energy bills. ✅Eco-friendly. ✅Enhanced comfort and reduced noise. Read our article and find out how insulation performs in winter and the positive impact it brings. https://lnkd.in/efFQfV_h #Insulation #RoomInRoof #UnderFloorInsulation #LoftStorageSolutions #InternalWallInsulation

SMALL INVESTMENT = BIG RETURN : In certain scenarios, the largest window in your home can inadvertently lead to excessive heat gain during the summer months. This not only overheats the foyer but also forces the air conditioning system to operate continuously in an attempt to regulate the temperature. The solution lies in upgrading to a Super Energy-Efficient window by Vinylmax + Plygem in partnership with ATLANTA SIDING AUTHORITY. With precise measurements and expert installation, your home's facade can regain its aesthetic appeal while effectively preventing the scorching summer heat from infiltrating your living space.

Curtains have an increased impact on the reduction of related heat gain or loss due to conduction because curtains have an insulating effect and, hence, lower the combined U-value. The combined U-value is also dependent on whether the curtains have loose or sealed edges, writes Dr Ashak Nathwani AM. Findings show that light coloured curtains hung loosely are responsible for: 💠 reduction of heat loss through windows in winter by 53 per cent 💠 heat gain through solar with curtains kept open in winter around 21 per cent 💠 reduction of heat gain through windows in summer by 63 per cent #energyefficiency #curtains #heatgain #heatreduction #insulation Read more: https://lnkd.in/e9JkGpcC

Understanding window performance is key to a comfortable home! The Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) measures how much heat a window allows in, while the U-value and R-value gauge insulation and heat loss. Lower SHGC means less heat enters, lower U-value means better insulation, and higher R-value means greater resistance to heat loss. Let Vinyl Design guide you to energy-efficient windows tailored to your needs! 👉 https://bit.ly/395wOTk
