Window Insulation Kits- How Do They Work?
With energy bills set to rise by 5% from January 2024 after the regulator raised the price cap to an average of £1,928 a year for the typical gas and electricity bill, and temperatures steadily dropping, more and more people will be looking for ways to better insulate their homes & reduce heating spending. Both window companies and repair experts have commented on the effectiveness of these window insulation kits, especially when the price of them is so low! What’s better, is the ease in which these kits can be installed- no need to pay someone to come and apply it, all you need is yourself and a hair dryer!
How?
The plastic film works by creating a trap of air between the window and the film- this prevents both hot & cold unwanted air currents from entering into your home.
What can you use it on?
Most windows, including double-glazed windows! Although double-glazed windows provide better insulation than single-glazed, the window insulation kit still comes in handy for adding a layer of thermal insulation! The kit can also be used on both modern windows and sash (more traditional style) windows.
Energy Efficiency & Money-saving:
The savings are made due to gaps & cracks being sealed, meaning less warm air is lost through the window and increases the insulation in your home. This means you can reduce your heating use, lower your energy bills & find an increase in your savings.
Helps Reduce Condensation:
Constant, persistent condensation on and around windows could possibly lead to mould or mildew forming. Inhaling the mould/mildew can cause a number of health problems, from simple allergies to respiratory problems. Helping to prevent mould/mildew buildup, the kit prevents the unnecessary stress of dealing with a mould/mildew problem and also any potential damage to one's health.
