FAQs - Windows

Let us help you with all of your window questions helping you find the perfect solution to your home.

How will I save energy if I replace my old windows?

All properties lose heat through their windows. But energy-efficient glazing keeps your home warmer and quieter as well as reducing your energy bills. That might mean double or triple-glazing, secondary glazing, or just heavier curtains.

According to the Energy Saving Trust*, replacing all single glazed windows in a typical semi-detached house with A-rated double glazing could save you between £85 and £110 a year on fuel bills.

To calculate how much you could save use the online energy calculator at www.decuninck.co.uk

I hear a lot about energy rated windows! What does 'A' Rated Windows mean?

Most people are familiar with the rainbow ‘energy label’ on white goods such as fridges and washing machines. These also apply to windows and doors.

A Window energy rating of A+10 or above is considered to be the best in class for energy efficiency. This equates to A+ with BFRC. So when choosing your windows, look for the energy rating label with A+.

Our Heritage 2800 double glazed windows achieve superb thermal performance with A+ energy ratings. We also offer triple glazed windows for the best in energy efficiency and comfort in the home.

What is double glazing and how does it work?

Put simply, triple glazing is 3 panes of glass instead of 1 or 2. The claim is that by having an extra pane, you will increase efficiency and reduce noise.
