Double glazing news - Energy efficiency gets political

Should they prove successful at the forthcoming General Election, the Green Party has pledged to introduce policies designed to make homes more energy efficient, but Britons could choose to take such action regardless of the election outcome by fitting new double glazing and composite doors.

In its manifesto, the party has outlines its plans to make £2 billion of funding per annum available to make properties energy self-sufficient, in addition to introducing a free home insulation programme which will aim to insulate fur million properties each year.

Double glazing can be a wise fixture to invest in as, according to the Energy Saving Trust, it can reduce the amount of heat lost through windows by 50 per cent.

Meanwhile, composite doors from Stockportdouble glazing supplier Force 8 could also be worth a look, as the external doors do not crack or warp to allow in cold draughts in the winter.

Commenting on the manifesto, Martyn Williams, parliamentary spokesperson for Friends of the Earth, said: "All parties know that the home is the area where it is actually quickest and cheapest at cutting emission, and also in many ways the most popular as you are making people's homes more comfortable."
