Try looking at your house and see what are the things that you could consider as a feature of a energy friendly home. Hopefully there are many things that will fall into that category. Well, if not you will need to do some Home improvements to your house. Let me introduce one features that you can do for your home that is the Double glazing windows.
What is double glazing? It is the glazing process in which a window is formed by two panes of glass with a space between the panes. The space between the glass is usually several millimeters thick.
What makes double glazing energy friendly? Well, in a double glazing window, the air is trapped between the panes of glass and forms a layer of insulation. Around 60% of heat loss in the home occurs through standard, single pane windows. Double glazing substantially stops heat loss. The cost of the double glazing will pay for itself very quickly in the money you save from heating bills. Once the double glazing has been installed, your heating costs should decrease by around 10 to 12%. As well as saving on heating bills, double glazing is very good at cutting down on noise pollution and internal condensation.
