When temperatures plummet across the UK, one of the first things homeowners notice is just how quickly heat loss in homes becomes a problem. Most households respond by turning the thermostat up and hoping the boiler keeps pace. But during a cold snap, the real problem in many homes isn’t how powerful the heating system is – it’s how quickly heat escapes.
Older or poorly performing windows are one of the biggest culprits of window heat loss, and during a cold spell, they can make it much harder to keep your home warm. When the mercury drops below zero, old or single-glazed windows can quietly send your energy bills soaring.
