Double Glazing Costs Verses Double Glazing Benefits
When looking at Double Glazing either installing new or replacing early less efficient double glazing, you will need to look at costs verses benefits, now let’s take this one step at a time.
The Benefits
There are many benefits of Double Glazing including Draught reduction, draught elimination, sound insulation, heat retention, cool air retention, and at the top end of the scale A Rated Double glazing actually helps to heat your home in winter months and cool your home in summer months. How does this work? Sounds pretty unbelievable don’t you think!
Well it works by letting in more of the suns energy than it allows to escape, free energy really in the winter, and yes this type of Double Glazing will help to heat your home, and it will save a huge amount on your energy bill.
How does it cool? Well in the summer months the special coating on this glass combined with argon or krypton gas between the panes reflects heat from the glass keeping your home cool.
Look at it this way, Double Glazing is rated in a very similar way to fridges and freezers, in that it is rated from A to E, A being the best that helps to heat and cool your home and E being the most inefficient at heat retention.
It was most common in 2009/10 to fit either B rated or C rated Double Glazing, which is a good indication of other people’s Double Glazing Cost Verses Benefits Analysis.
Double Glazing Costs Verses Benefits, Think Again Because Times Are Changing!
Fuel and energy costs are spiralling and with unrest in many oil and gas producing countries, things look like they may well get a lot worse, before they get better, governments throughout the world have overspent, and many countries have had to introduce austerity measures which include tax and stealth tax increases which DIRECTLY EFFECT the cost of energy and fuel.
Therefore you may now on re examination agree that A Rated Double Glazing Cost will repay its investment cost quite quickly, especially if the forecast that things will get a lot worse before they get any better is correct.
As an expert in this field with over thirty years experience I would strongly suggest that it is now clear that if you are having double glazing replaced, that the Double Glazing costs verses benefits comparison shows A rated Double Glazing to be the most economic choice for 2011 and future years, if you can afford it then fit the best first time, you will see energy bills reduced quite significantly from the first few months after installation.
Double Glazing must be installed the highest standards, this is because double glazed windows will be expensive to repair, therefore the importance of finding skilled highly experienced double glazing experts is of great importance.
Who should I chose to fit my double glazing?
The next obvious question would be who should supply and install my double glazing? Well this isn’t the easiest question to answer big corporate companies such as Anglian and Everest supply and fit great products, but they have huge overheads, think about it carefully.
Big Companies Have The Following:-
- Big Overheads with property, employees, and logistics.
- Sales teams and cold call teams – these all cost money and add to their costs exponentially.
- Employed fitters often changing on a monthly basis, are these experienced experts in their field? Now I’m sure they go through a training programme, but in my experience I have seen many poor quality fitting jobs by major companies, schoolboy errors that no double glazing fitter should ever make.
- Haulage costs as the big boy’s factories are often many miles from the job, again this is paid for by the customer.
So where does this bring us? Well as you may have guessed I have a small family business that specializes in double glazing installation and double glazing repairs.
You will be forgiven for thinking that I would say this, but bear me out for another sentence, a small local business such as ours has many benefits, firstly we have been doing the same thing Double Glazing for 32 years, we are home based so our overheads are low, we use local manufacturing, no transport costs.
Our Double Glazing Suppliers make the same specification products as the big companies do, they have to as due to carbon footprint control the whole energy conservation industry is now closely monitored and regulated, if my supplier manufactures A Rated double glazed windows, they have to have exactly the same rating as those by big companies such as Everest.
Now I cannot suggest that some of our suppliers supply the big boys, but I guess if they are busy then they will have to have other manufacturers produce their product, think Nike and Adidas for example, it is fairly common knowledge that their trainers come out of the same far eastern factories, just different production runs for different products, but the same factory and machinery.
Nike and Adidas simply book production time at far eastern factories, does this effect quality? Well Nike and Adidas would say no it does not; therefore it must be safe to think that perhaps the same scenario exists in the production of Double Glazing products.
So to summarise this is my suggestion to you.
Double Glazing Costs vary for a reason that you now know, it would make economic sense to fit high quality A Rated Double Glazing using an established experienced “Local Business” that has specialized in fitting Double Glazing for many years, look for a proven track record from an expert, if you are faced with double glazing sales people who spend hours in your home trying to sell you double glazing, I bet they will phone their manager for a “Special One Off Price” for today only.
This is known in marketing circles as a scarcity tactic, trust me firstly show them the door as quickly as you can because if you do decide to buy from them, I promise you that the price will still be available, and if you chose to tell them you will take their offer at 10% less than their “Special One Off Price” then they will still do the deal, they need you and you do not necessarily need them!
