The glazing industry has recently developed its own window energy rating scheme and now N&P Windows have become one of the first companies in the UK to offer an energy rated window. Energy rated windows help retain more heat and therefore can cut expensive heating bills, as 10% of all energy lost in the home is through glazing.N&P can now offer two ‘C’ rated windows for both consumer and public sector applications with little increase in cost over a standard window.The two windows that meet the EST 'C' rated specifications are as follows:-ECO 55 - 62mm Sash/Slim Outer Frame (Rated C)
ECO 70 - 62mm Sash/70mm Outer Frame (Rated C)An easier way to choose high performance windows.A window’s energy performance has traditionally been stated in terms of its U-value (an indication of heat loss). However, manufacturers may quote the U-value of the frame, the sealed unit or the whole window so the performance of different products may not be readily comparable. Furthermore, heat losses may be offset by solar gains.A preferred measure of window performance has been developed by the British Fenestration Rating Council - the BFRC Rating. Taking into account heat losses and solar gains, the BFRC Rating is a single number indicating the window’s overall energy performance. To achieve a rating, a window installer must also have suitable quality management procedures in place to guarantee the performance of the installed product.The BFRC Rating system offers a simple route to ensuring the selection of high performance window.The Energy Saving Trust’s energy saving recommended scheme only endorses
windows in Band C and above. When replacing windows, it is best practice is to specify windows of Band C or above.The N&P 70mm window system conforms to this Band C specification and is the perfect energy efficient solution for builders, specifiers and architects.Contact N&P Windows today to find out more and do your bit for the environment.
