Double or Triple Glazing
Double or triple glazing is known within the industry to upgrade your home as well as proving you with better quality long-term performance and at the same time provide savings. Installing new windows across different rooms will help manage the temperature of your home. The issue with single-glazed windows is that they are known for their considerable heat loss. With some research suggesting as many as 80% of UK homes are now either double or triple glazed, if you are part of the 20%, maybe it is time to upgrade.
During the cold and breezy winter, double or triple glazing will help store heat and prevent it from escaping while during the hot and humid summer, it will help cool down the whole property. This will help you cut down on your energy bills making a significant financial difference. Double or triple glazing can also help in reduce noise levels from outside, making the house a quieter and more peaceful place to live. With the various benefits that comes with double or triple glazing, it is certainly a no-brainer.
Solar Panels
With solar panels becoming more popular for homeowners, maybe the time has come to jump on the bandwagon. Despite the expensive nature of installing solar panels onto your home, they can be a worthwhile investment with regards to improving and adding value to your home. But look carefully into how long it will take you to recoup your investment. According to The Eco Experts, homebuyers are more likely to spend extra on a house that has solar panels installed, as they can benefit from lower bills. One of the most important advantages of these panels is the access to a renewable energy source. With solar energy expected to become a key part of the future, alongside other renewable energy sources, perhaps it is time to get environmentally friendly.
Underfloor Heating
Compared to the traditional radiators found in the majority of homes, an underfloor heating system will spread heat across your home more evenly. Systems come in two main forms, electric and water, with both providing more consistent warmth to your home. An electric system heats wiring underneath the floor to develop heat, whereas a water-based system runs hot water within the pipes to create heat. Therefore, whether you are looking to warm up your kitchen or snuggle down in your living room, installing an underfloor heating system will provide a smarter and cleaner way to heat up your home.
These five features could revolutionise your property and transform it into a haven that you will never want to leave!
