Have Double Glazing Installed by Oxford Specialists

We’ve all seen the adverts and heard the sales pitches, but there must be a reason why an overwhelming percentage of UK homes have long since invested in double glazing. In many ways, the increase in the popularity of double glazing has followed the growing trend toward central heating in modern homes. According to the Office for National Statistics, in 1971, only 30% of British homes had a central heating system, whereas in 2001 this had reached 90%. It’s more than likely safe to say that double glazing has experienced a similar growth. Here at Radley we’ve been operating since the 1980’s, which means that we’ve been instrumental in providing countless homes with double glazing Oxford and the surrounding provinces.

So why should you have double glazing in your home?

As the statistics above demonstrate, there’s every chance that you already have double glazing in your home, so why should you be interested in what we here at Radley have to offer? Well, we aim to provide windows which offer heat saving which is over and above the norm in our industry. According to the Energy Savings Trust, 18% of heat lost in a house exits via the windows, yet here at Radley we create WHS Halo’s Eclipse line of UPVC windows, which can reduce this figure by a staggering 10%.

Of course, this won’t solve your astronomical heating bill overnight, but with time and in conjunction with other low cost methods of insulation, you can ease the financial strain of keeping warm each year.

The sound proofing advantages of double glazing are often overlooked, but with many homes being built on busy roads, and with traffic numbers increasing almost weekly, the value of reduced outside noise can only increase as time goes on.

If you already have double glazing Oxford then take a moment to inspect your window frames. If these are faded, warped or damaged in any way, then the benefit of the double glazing installed within them is probably being squandered, and will be until they’re replaced.
