Extreme UPVC Windows in Tenbury Wells and Composite Stable Doors
Enhancing the energy efficiency with Extreme UPVC Windows in Tenbury Wells
After opening their spring energy bills, Mr and Mrs Wilkins faced a stark reality: despite a mild winter, their heating costs were soaring due to global energy market volatility. Realising their old, draughty windows were leaking heat and driving up utility expenses, they decided to take control of the energy efficiency in their home.
By upgrading to energy-efficient double glazing with advanced coated glass, paired with tailored architectural features, they transformed both the thermal performance and practical functionality of their red-brick Tenbury Wells home.
The Challenge
- Escalating Energy Costs: Mounting utility bills driven by global energy price pressures, made worse by inefficient building insulation.
- Thermal Inefficiency: Ageing, draughty window frames allowing heat to escape rapidly during colder months.
- Functional Requirements: Finding replacement fixtures that improved insulation without sacrificing character, pet safety, or convenience during summer entertaining.
Key Features & Design Choices
Following a meeting with one of the 5 Star designers, Mr and Mrs Wilkins chose 5 Star’s Extreme high-performance A+ rated double glazing with coated glass that reflects solar heat back inside. The precision-fitted frames eliminate draughts to maintain a consistent temperature and cut heating costs. The exterior is enhanced by their selection of Anthracite Grey frames which offer a striking contrast against the warm tones of the traditional red-brick facade. The composite stable door allows independent top-sash operation for fresh air while keeping the lower section securely locked to protect their dogs and young children. Completing the installation, the kitchen French casement window utilises a floating mullion design. This allows both sashes to swing wide open without a central post for an unobstructed view and maximum airflow. This great feature acts as a direct pass-through for food, drinks and ketchup between the kitchen and patio during barbecue season.
Results & Outlook
- Reduced Energy Reliance: The new high-spec glazing creates a tight thermal envelope, shielding the household from volatile energy price spikes.
- Enhanced Lifestyle: The addition of the stable door and French casement window seamlessly connects internal living areas with the garden.
- Long-Term Savings: Mr and Mrs Wilkins enter the coming winter season with lower expected heating demand and long-term peace of mind.
