DOORS , WINDOWS & FITTINGS
installation of heat pumps , MVHR ( Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery ) and photovoltaic panels , will ensure we reach our goal .
Who will pay ? Over the last few decades we have strived as homeowners to improve our properties , especially by installing new windows and doors , I believe we will continue to improve our properties as part of our goal to have economic and comfortable places to live in .
Here at Aluprof UK we already have a range of very high insulation systems and we have new high performance products waiting in the wings . Our technical teams are well versed in offering assistance to architects to help detail and reduce thermal bridging on new and refurbished building envelopes . Traditionally , Aluprof UK offer commercial systems to the UK & Ireland markets , but we are now experiencing rapid growth in supplying the home improvement market .
The landscape for the ‘ home improvement ’ market will likely change in the future , replacement windows and doors rated at 0.8 W / m2 . K will be installed hand in hand with external or internal insulation to reach the future homes standard for walls of 0.15 W / m2 . K . Furthermore , these improvements will likely go hand in hand with MVHR installations meaning that we will not need trickle vents through windows together , possibly with less opening vents in windows . What seems certain is that over the next couple of decades the home improvement market will become very buoyant as these opportunities present themselves to a well established ‘ trade ’ supply chain .
