ADVANTAGES
LOW MAINTENANCE UPVC windows are very easy to look after and maintain, you don’t have to sand, file, paint or stain them and they age well. Once you have had them expertly fitted, all you need to do is wipe over the frames with a damp cloth and some mild detergent if necessary to get out any stains.
ENERGY SAVING The snug and airtight fit of UPVC windows means they provide fantastic thermal insulation, creating a warm atmosphere and lowering both your heating bill and your carbon footprint. The profiles used to make the window frames offer insulation while the weather tight seals keep out any draughts and the glazing helps to reflect heat back into your room. |
