How To Make Your Home More Energy Efficient This Winter?
Are you thinking of renovating your home this winter? At T&K Home Improvements, we understand that the cost-of-living crisis is having a massive impact on homeowners. With energy prices increasing dramatically, it has never been more important to save money this winter. That’s why, in this guide, we have come up with some helpful tips on how you can save money this winter.
Upgrade to Energy Efficient Windows and Doors
Speaking of double glazing, upgrading to energy-efficient windows and doors can make a big difference in reducing your energy bills. Traditional single-pane windows and poorly insulated doors can be a significant source of heat loss. By replacing them with double-glazed windows and well-insulated doors, you can minimise heat transfer and keep the cold air out.
At T&K Home Improvements, we offer A+ rated double-glazed products, including windows, doors, and conservatories, as standard. In addition to providing plenty of natural light, these products have a robust thermal barrier that helps retain heat in your home all year round. What’s more, we offer triple glazing for our products, which could reduce your energy bills significantly.
Insulate Your Conservatory Walls
One of the most effective ways to save on energy bills during the winter is to ensure your home is properly insulated. Did you know that around a third of uninsulated heat escapes through the walls? A poorly insulated home can result in heat loss and high energy bills.
By insulating your conservatory walls, roof, and windows, you can prevent heat from escaping and keep your living space warm without worrying about using too much energy. You can also consider our orangeries and extensions, which are designed to keep your home at a stable and comfortable temperature. As a result, you could stay warmer throughout the cold winter months.
Weatherproof Your Home
Draughts and leaks around windows, doors, and other areas of your home can let cold air in and warm air out. Weatherproofing your home could help tighten the gaps and cracks, stopping cold air from entering. This could be an ideal solution to reduce your energy bills and repair costs.
Consider Installing a Smart Meter
Additionally, you can help monitor your energy use by installing a Smart meter. This useful device could help you track how much energy you use and save money on your heating bills.
Install Self Cleaning Glass and Solar Panels
If your budget is set for more significant home renovation ideas, you can consider installing solar panels. These are the most common reusable sources of energy in the UK, and they could be the perfect way of reducing your energy costs and carbon footprint. This is ideal for the eco-conscious homeowner, as you can make your home more sustainable.
At T&K Home Improvements, we are firm believers in solar energy. Our solar glass can help you get your home fit for winter. Our Ultra glazing comes with many benefits, such as improved year-round comfort that can help reduce energy bills.
The glazing is available in three colours: Aqua, Blue, and Neutral. These designs help reflect heat in your home while retaining natural light. This creates a design that can increase warmth and comfort levels throughout the year.
