Better Doors and Windows for a Better World

Better Doors and Windows for a Better World

Here at Ecostar, we like to rave about all the different styles and types of uPVC doors and windows we can provide. But appearances are not the only reason that double-glazed doors and windows have gained popularity – they are also great at reducing energy emissions and improving the sustainability of buildings!

These windows are made of two panes of glass with a gap between them, which is filled with an insulating gas. The insulating gas helps to minimize the amount of heat that escapes through the windows, making them more energy-efficient than single-glazed windows.

Sustainable Double Glazing

One of the main ways that double-glazed windows are sustainable is by reducing the energy required to heat and cool buildings. The insulating gas in these windows helps to reduce the amount of heat that escapes, which means that less energy is required to heat the building in winter. In the summer, the windows prevent heat from entering the building, which means that less energy is required to cool it.

Double-glazed windows also help to reduce carbon emissions associated with heating and cooling buildings. By reducing the amount of energy required to heat and cool a building, the use of double-glazed windows reduces the amount of fossil fuels required to generate electricity or heat. This, in turn, leads to a reduction in carbon emissions from power plants, which contributes to a more sustainable future for our planet.

Helping The Planet

In addition to their energy-saving benefits, double-glazed windows can also contribute to a more sustainable building design. uPVC is an extremely sustainable material; when it reaches its end, it can be shredded and compressed into pellets and then extruded into uPVC and reused. This process can be repeated up to 10 times, so our windows and doors could have centuries of practical use!

While double-glazed helps our planet, it can also help improve the indoor environment for you too. Our windows can also help to reduce noise pollution and keep your home peaceful and quiet. The two panes of glass, along with the insulating gas, create a barrier that reduces the amount of noise that enters a building from the outside. This can help to create a more comfortable living or working environment, which in turn can lead to improved productivity and well-being.
