News that many of our major energy suppliers will be cutting their prices will come as a welcome relief to many, but does it go far enough? The price cuts that have been announced over the past couple of weeks pale in comparison to the price rises of 2011. Research conducted by uSwitch has found that the cuts will pull just 136,500 out of the of the fuel poverty trap.
This is clear evidence that the price cuts don’t go far enough and they are never likely to as the cost of household fuel is expected to escalate over the coming years. This means that if people want to do something about the increasing cost of energy and want to avoid the perils of fuel poverty then they are going to have to take the initiative and do something about it themselves.
This means making long-term investments into products…

2011 has seen the cost of energy rocket in price like never before. According to uSwitch.com, some people have experienced a 21% increase in the cost of energy over the past 12 months and things are only expected to get worse for those who have yet to make their Yorkshire home energy efficient.

No-one wants to live in a cold household but that will be the case for many over the coming months as figures collated by Consumer Focus show that a quarter of households in England alone are facing fuel poverty this winter. With over 25% of heat lost from the home through windows that offer poor insulating qualities, it is not hard to see where the majority of responsibility lies.
Conservatory, Window and Door Outlet has long been aware of the problem of old and inefficient windows which is why we have long recommended that people invest in double glazing in Leeds and double glazing in Yorkshire as a whole. UPVC windows are much more reliable when it comes to keeping you and your home warm at an affordable cost.
Expensive energy bills will no longer be an issue when…
Figures obtained by Customer Focus have shown that the number of households who are finding themselves in debt due to energy bills has now reached 1.5 million. This is an incredibly sad state of affairs and things are only expected to get worse as further energy price rises are expected across the board in the New Year.
However, there will be a large group of homeowners who have to give very little thought to energy prices and they will be amongst those who already have double glazing in Leeds, double glazing in Huddersfield and double glazing in Yorkshire as a whole. This is because a double glazed window gives you the luxury of being able to use your heating far less than you would with a traditional window.
Anyone who doesn’t need to use their heating as often…
Because of the fragile state of the housing market it has never been as important to ensure that your home is always looking its best. This particularly applies to those looking to sell their property once the market begins to make some sort of recovery. But maintaining traditional windows can be a real headache as the frames often lose their appeal and the glass performs poorly as far insulation is concerned.
All of this can be solved from the moment you install a fresh set of UPVC windows in your home as they need none of the care and attention that you have to put into looking after old windows. This is because the UPVC frame included with each of our windows is weather-resistant and therefore not liable to rotting, fading or warping. Rain, sleet or snow our windows can be relied upon to last the course…
Millions of Brits are expected to go without heating for large parts of the winter due to the ever increasing cost of energy, this includes pensioners and those with young families. It is entirely the responsibility of the homeowner to make sure that they take necessary measures to keep warm and believe it or not a set of patio doors could be just what you’re looking for.
Patio doors promise a high level of insulation and will trap a huge amount of heat each time you turn on your boiler. The frame and glazing used in a patio door are both energy efficient which means that they are well equipped to prevent heat from escaping from the home unnecessarily. Very few windows can store as much heat as a glazed patio door.
As an added bonus, a patio door will provide a perfect link between your home, patio and garden…
Forecasters are already predicting that this winter will be as bad, if not worse, than the winter of last year when temperatures dropped to record levels. This is bad news for everyone, but especially anyone who lives in a home which still only has single glazed windows installed.
Old windows are a common cause of draughts and condensation first thing in the morning and are the chief reason why certain homes feel so cold throughout the day. Around 25% of warm air is lost through a poorly-insulated window, meaning that they are also what’s responsible for those high energy bills you receive in the post every month.
Now is the time to get your windows changed before the cold snap begins to bite. Double glazing in Leeds, double glazing in Yorkshire and double glazing in Huddersfield will bring…
