Unlike traditional windows that let heat escape or let in draughts through the year, replacement UPVC Windows are incredibly durable. They also aid in maintaining a comfortable climate throughout the year, and reduce your energy bills.
Aesthetics
Our Bromley windows are designed to fit in with modern, new-build or traditional homes. The windows are available with a variety of colours and finishes. They can be customised to fit the style of your home. They also come in different grained finishes that give them a premium appearance.
The REHAU Heritage vertical slider is a high-end aluminium window system that replicates the slim lines and authentic timber styling details of traditional sash windows. It features a deep bottom bar to replicate the original vertical mortice-and-tenon joinery and different sash designs and glazing beading.
Energy efficiency
Energy efficient windows let in natural light while preventing unwanted heat UV and infrared radiation. This helps homeowners cut their cooling and heating bills substantially while boosting the value of their home's resale.
The best energy-efficient windows have an extremely low U-factor, an impressive R value, and a low solar gain coefficient. The higher these ratings are, the more efficient a window's insulation is. The material used for the frame also affects the efficiency of energy. Wood frames expand and contract more than vinyl and cause air leakage, while frames made of fiberglass and clad wood offer superior insulation properties and have a low amount of expansion and contraction.
Multiple-paned windows are more insulating than single-paned ones. This is due to the fact that they have dead air encased between two panes of glass. The inert gases like the krypton and argon found in these triple-pane and double-pane windows act as an additional layer of insulation, reducing the flow of hot and cold, stopping radiant transfer and reducing the cost of energy.
Energy efficient windows are also fitted with a special coating that blocks the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun from passing through the glass to the home. This protects furniture, carpets and rugs from fading or deteriorating. While these benefits sound fantastic but the real savings are from a decrease in cooling and heating costs which will be paid for in 2 to 10 years. This is why it's crucial to consult a professional like a Marvin window expert before deciding on new windows.
Security
Security is a huge consideration when you install windows. Many uPVC window options are made to meet this requirement. They are made of tough, durable bars crafted from thick steel or iron to ensure that your property is secure from unwanted intrusions. RepairMyWindowsAndDoors are available in a variety of sizes and shapes and are easy to integrate into your home's design without making any compromises on aesthetics.
Other window security features include shoot bolts, multi-point locks and rails for meeting. These locking mechanisms prevent the sash's movement when it is closed, and fix it to the mainframe for added security.
