Worthy but Dull

Insulation has got to be the most boring part of the greening process. This is particularly so with double glazing, since it is expensive and involves destroying perfectly good old glass. We’ll know the overall cost of doing the main windows next week. But I have to agree that it’s important. The best figures I can find suggest that “up to 23% of heat lost from a home can be through poorly insulated window frames and single glazed panes. Double glazing replacement windows with integral draught-proofing can reduce this loss by half.”
