/24-7PressRelease/ - December 13, 2007 - Almost half of the UK's CO2 emissions come from the energy we use every day - at home and when we travel. Reducing this type of energy consumption saves money and environment at the same time. Installing double glazing windows (http://www.doubleglazingonline.com) and doors is one of the simplest ways to save upto half of the heating bills. This also makes a nice contribution to the environment.
The double glazed windows and doors increase homes' energy efficiency and by doing so keep them warm, save money for the owner and add value to the properties. Research shows that buyers are willing to pay up to 10,000 more for an environmentally friendly house - and that 70% consider energy efficiency to be important when buying a home.
The Home Information Pack for houses that are being bought and sold includes a compulsory and independently assessed Energy Performance Certificate. These certificates are commissioned by the seller (or their agent) from an accredited list of Energy Assessors, who visit the property and collect all relevant data, including the date of construction and location of the house and relevant fittings, such as heating systems, insulation and double glazing, before issuing the certificate.
Safestyle UK (http://www.doubleglazingonline.com), the country's largest double glazing windows and upvc doors retailer, offer highly energy efficient products coupled with free professional fitting and 10-year transferable guarantee. John Ross, Chief Executive of the Style Group, explained: "The Government is now putting pressure on all areas of life to be pro-active in its interest and efforts to preserve the environment. As a result new home information packs have become the norm and every home will have energy ratings together with an energy performance certificate. This will be of obvious importance when it comes to buying and selling any property."
Double Glazing online (http://www.doubleglazingonline.com) offers extensive information about benefits of double glazing windows, glazed uPVC doors, French doors and sliding Patio doors. The glossary and Frequently Asked Questions sections help the reader with answers to the most pressing questions and guides them to the right product that can save money through energy conservation.
