Money Tight? Try Timber Windows From Mitchell Glass

The rising cost of energy bills has tightened the purse strings of many people. Having less cash to spend is the last thing you need when you have a young family. But you only need to look towards your current windows to decipher the reason why your energy bills may have reached a level where you have to sacrifice on other things to pay for them.A huge quantity of heat leaks through ageing windows as they become less capable of insulating a home. The frames weaken and the glass just doesn’t have what it takes to reflect warm air back into the home. When this stage is reached you know that the time has arrived when you need to get your windows replaced and the sooner the better!
The most common type of window nowadays is the UPVC window, but there are other alternatives such as aluminium windows and timber windows. Both possess a variety of different benefits, but both share the ability to keep energy bills under control as they are extremely effective at storing any warm air generated by a traditional boiler.
Aluminium windows are extremely tough and strong so therefore have the durability required to see off any type of weather. Timber windows strength lies in the fact that they are environmentally-friendly and give off the most aesthetically-pleasing natural finish. So don’t just limit your choice to UPVC as timber and aluminium can do just as good a job.
Of course there is a cost involved with getting a new set of windows fitted and installed but you need to view them as being a long-term investment. The money they save you will make it worth it.
