Signs that you need to replace your windows
Still have single pane windows
If your home was built before 1970 and you still have the original windows, then you will probably still have single pane windows. All modern glazing whether we are talking uPVC windows or aluminium windows, they all come as double glazed or triple glazed windows. Single pane windows do not meet the building regulations for our modern properties as they are sub-standard, draughty and if fitted with putty could be unsafe.
Single glazing are extremely bad for reflecting UV rays from entering a property, which can seriously fade colours such as living room furniture. Modern double glazed windows are designed with low E glass which helps to reduce most of the UVB light which minimises heat loss whilst keeping a home cool during the summer months. To completely eliminate UVA rays then try laminated and tinted uPVC windows.
Windows are damaged, warped or even broken
