Eco-friendly homes depend on double glazing by Westech by Certainteed

Homeowners are starting to realize that they save money with energy-efficient building techniques. This is because eco-friendly houses cost little or no more to build while delivering dramatic savings in energy costs.  But many families will be disappointed in their home¹s thermal performance unless they get every aspect right.  Even a slight gap in the overall insulation will undo any other good work - and traditional windows can be the greatest insulation gap of all.
With effective double-glazing your tightly insulated home will 'naturally' stay at a comfortable temperature all year round. Indeed, many determined energy-conscious homeowners live comfortably with neither heating in winter nor mechanical cooling in summer.  In a Onormal¹ house, with kids running in and out, you will need only occasional bursts of heating or cooling from low power appliances.
