Energy Efficiency

It's your decisions that shape our future so by choosing energy efficient windows and doors you are taking a step in the right direction.

Up to 80% of energy loss through a window occurs at it's edge. 

We are all responsible for our environment and must now take steps to reduce our consumption of fossil fuels and the depletion of other natural resources.

How do you know if your double glazing is energy efficient?

The British Fenestration Rating Council (BFRC) has introduced a window energy rating scheme which grades windows A to G. Those products graded C or above are certified energy efficient and can apply for the Energy Saving Recommended tag. 

Up to 94% reduced heat loss

enviro-TX.N is an essential component of superior double glazing.  Its thermally efficient properties can help to reduce heat loss through windows.  While making a real contribution to the environment, this heat loss saving can help to reduce the heat consumption of your home which lowers carbon emissions and saves you money on your fuel bills.

Up to 70% reduced condensation

The tecatherm composite of TX.N warm edge spacer tube ensures that your enviro-TX.N sealed unit helps to reduce condensation int he window by up to 70%.  This reduction in moisture virtualy eliminates the chance of mould growth and potentially harmful bacteria.  This is an essential consideration for the increasing number of people who suffer from respiratory conditions such as asthma.

Up to 65% warmer at the edge

Double glased windows fitted with warm edge spacer tube have a warmer internal edge temperature of up to 65% which also helps to reduce the risk of condensation.

TX.N warm edge space tube is made from high performance engineering plastic with an integrated gas-tight diffusion barrier of stainless steel.  This bonds exceptionally well with all sealant types.  Its composition ensures that TX.N is structurally sound while keeping the glass at the edge of the window warm.

Its warm edge ensures that thermal energy provided by heating stays in the room and that the danger of condensation forming is minimised.  Therefore the window remains dry to ensure a healthy climate in the room.

By choosing A.A Plastics to install your windows, doors or conservatory you can be rest assured you will have the comfort of C+ energy rated products in your home.
