Energy efficiency
26% Of Heat Lost Through Windows
A staggering 26% of all domestic heat loss escapes through windows.* Installing energy efficient windows can reduce the energy consumption of your home by as much as 50% compared to traditional windows and frames.
‘A’ Rated Energy Efficiency
Higman Windows are ‘A’ rated for maximum energy efficiency, the highest rating you can get! Most existing double glazed windows, even those installed in the last 10 years (when energy efficient windows were first introduced) will only be ‘E’ rated at best.
Research has shown that many homeowners assume that all double glazing is equally efficient. In fact there are huge differences in performance, and its the glass that makes the difference.**
Reduce Your Energy Bills
At Higman Windows we use ‘Planitherm’ a new generation of energy saving glass. Its advanced coating technology reflects heat back into the room rather than allowing it to escape through the window and at the same time allowing free heat and light from the sun to pass through the glass, warming the room and further contributing to energy efficiency and helping to reduce your energy bills.
