Choosing eco-friendly windows is a great start when looking to upgrade our homes. It will save you money while also doing your bit for the environment. Our guide on how to choose the best eco-friendly windows gives you all the information you need. We will help you make the right choice for your home and budget. We cover everything from the benefits of environmentally friendly windows to what happens to your old windows.

Types of Eco-friendly Windows

When it comes to improving the thermal efficiency of your home, different types of eco-friendly window frames and glass are a way of making a big difference. If your home currently has old timber frame windows or older uPVC windows, you are likely losing a lot of heat through these. If you have noticed cold spots and draughts in the house, you may need replacement windows.

Modern windows use the latest technology to ensure that your home stays warm and cosy. Aluminium windows and doors stop heat escaping your home thanks to the insulation and thermal regulation technology.

In a bid to offer the best eco-friendly windows the UK has to offer, we conducted extensive research into the market. Our team looked into all of the types of windows available and selected Smart’s Aluminium windows.

Are Aluminium Windows Environmentally Friendly?

Our team chose Smart’s due to the very latest thermal technology and superior design options available. A polyamide layer sits between the interior and exterior frames for excellent thermal performance. It creates a barrier between the warm air inside the house and the cold outside to help you regulate your home’s temperature.

The super-efficient design, advanced security features, and customisable options are superb with these windows and doors. They give you the best windows without compromising on the look or feel of your home. These features are why they are among the top eco-friendly windows UK homeowners love.

Our windows can also be enhanced with internal blinds to further increase thermal efficiency. Find out more in our guide on the benefits of integral blinds.
