A Dramatic Photograph of a Young Woman Hanging From a Window in Bromley, Kent A young woman hangs perilously from a third-story hotel window as her friends desperately try to pull her away. The dramatic photo was captured in Bromley, Kent. Contrary to traditional windows, which let heat escape and let in drafts, replacement UPVC windows are extremely durable and help maintain a comfortable temperature throughout the year, which can cut your energy costs. Aesthetics The aesthetically pleasing windows we supply and install throughout Bromley can enhance the look of your home as they are designed to work with modern, brand new or traditional homes. The windows are available in many shades and finishes. www.repairmywindowsanddoors.co.uk can be tailored to match the aesthetic of your home. They also come in different grained finishes that give them a premium look. The REHAU heritage vertical slider is an aluminium window system that replicates the authentic wood styling details and slim lines of traditional sash windows. It features a deep bottom bar to replicate the original vertical mortice-and-tenon joinery, as well as different sash designs and glazing beading. Energy efficiency Energy efficient windows block infrared, heat and UV rays while allowing in natural light. This allows homeowners to significantly reduce their heating and cooling costs while increasing the value of their house. The best windows that are energy efficient have an R-value that is high, a low U-factor, and a low solar heat gain coefficient. The higher these ratings are, the better efficient a window's insulation is. The frame material can also affect energy efficiency. Vinyl frames are more likely to leak air than wood frames since they expand and contract more. Fiberglass and clad-wood frame material provide superior insulation and have a low amount of expansion and contraction. Multiple-pane windows are able to better insulate than single-paned alternatives. This is due to the fact that they have dead air that is trapped between two glass panes. The inert gases such as Krypton and argon that are that are found in these triple-pane or double-pane windows create an additional layer of insulation, reducing the movement of cold and hot as well as preventing radiative transfer and cutting down on the cost of energy. Energy efficient windows are also fitted with a special coating that stops the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun from escaping through the glass and into the home. This protects carpets, furniture and rugs from becoming faded. While these benefits sound great but the real savings are from a decrease in heating and cooling costs which could pay for the windows within 2 to 10 years. This is why it's crucial to speak with a expert such as a Marvin window expert when selecting new windows. Security Security is a major consideration when installing windows, and many uPVC windows are constructed to meet this requirement. They feature robust, rugged bars made from heavy iron or steel to ensure that your property is safe from intrusions. They are available in a variety of sizes and shapes which makes them easy to integrate into your home's design without having to compromise on style. Other window security features are multi-point locks and shoot bolts. These locking mechanisms prevent the sash from being shifted when it's closed and pin it to the mainframe for enhanced security.
