Take Back Control of Your Energy Costs
Upgrade Your Windows with T&K Home Improvements
As we approach the colder months, homeowners are concerned about rising energy costs, the looming impact of recent changes to the UK’s energy price cap and the Winter Fuel Allowance. While these factors are beyond individual control, there are steps you can take to protect your home and reduce your energy bills. One of the most effective actions you can take is upgrading to double glazed windows, and T&K Home Improvements is here to help you do just that.
Explaining the Energy Price Cap Change
From 1 October to 31 December 2024, the energy price cap set by Ofgem will see a slight reduction, bringing it down to £1,923 for an average household on a typical default tariff. However, while this may seem like good news, energy prices remain volatile, and as we’ve seen in previous years, they are subject to change. No matter how much the price cap fluctuates, energy bills can still spike during the winter when heating is essential.
At the same time, the Winter Fuel Allowance – a lifeline for pensioners to help with energy bills – has been reduced for 2024. According to government updates, fewer households will be eligible for the Winter Fuel Payment, and the total amount available has been scaled back. This leaves many people facing increased financial pressure just as the colder months hit.
Control What You Can: Upgrade to Double Glazing
While you can’t control energy prices or government policies, you can control how much energy your home consumes. Upgrading to double glazed windows is one of the best investments you can make to improve your home’s energy efficiency. By installing modern, high-performance windows, you could save hundreds of pounds on your energy bills each year.
Double glazing works by creating an insulating barrier between the inside of your home and the outside environment. This prevents heat from escaping during the winter and reduces the need to rely on expensive heating systems. According to the Energy Saving Trust, upgrading your windows can cut heat loss by up to 30%, resulting in significant energy savings.
