Windows & Doors
Throw open your windows and doors and fragrance your home with fresh air.
Whether uPVC or timber and whatever the style, beautifully made and expertly fitted windows and doors play a vital role in defining the character and security of our homes.
Choose from either uPVC, timber aluminum or composite doors, all available in a wide range of design and colour options and finishes.
Energy Efficiency
Replacing your windows with energy efficient windows can save money and reduce your carbon footprint. If windows are poorly selected they can become a major source of heat loss in the winter, which increases the carbon footprint of the property and increases heating costs.
The British Fenestration Rating Council Limited (BFRC) window rating system has been developed to address this problem and allows you to compare the energy efficiency of different products. Windows are currently rated from A to G, with A being the most energy efficient. All Eclipse windows have been tested and comply with the BFRC Window Energy Ratings A to D, when the correct double glazed unit is incorporated into the frame. Legislation to be introduced in 2010 will specify that all replacement windows need to be rated A to C.
So here is how it works:
Energy efficient windows allow optimal amounts of the sun's energy to pass through the glass into the room allowing you to benefit from solar heat gain. At the same time, the advanced glass coating on the inside reflects the heat inside back into the room rather than allowing it to escape. Both these features reduce or eliminate the need for additional heating.
Energy ratings can be increased by incorporating a combination of argon filled glass units, warm edge spacer bar (the bar which holds the two panes of glass apart) and foam filled frames to your new windows.
