The Benefits of Thermal Efficiency

At Direct Roofing Systems, we supply products to the trade to be installed in your customers’ residential or commercial space. We understand thermal efficiency is one of the most important things to consider when installing a new window or door. This article will go through some of the benefits, so read on to find out more.

Thermal performance is how well your customers’ commercial or residential property retains natural heat. If your customer gets a good thermal performance, it can benefit them in several ways. It is a critical factor between a freezing home in winter and a warmer space, which makes things more comfortable long term.

Let your customer know that one of the best ways of improving your home’s thermal efficiency is by installing double or triple glazing in your windows and doors. Double glazing is where two thick panels are fitted together with argon gas, trapping natural heat in your customers’ homes or residential properties. By keeping warm air inside, let your customers know they will save plenty of money on their energy bills and stay warm during winter.

Inform your customer that their commercial or residential property’s thermal performance is measured by U Values, which categorises a certain building on a numeric scale. For instance, our aluminium windows offer incredible energy efficiency because they are fitted with multiple internal chambers. This results in a strong thermal barrier and extremely low U Values of 0.9W m2K. We ensure that all our products are built to the highest standards.

Furthermore, we work closely with Sheerline’s Thermlock technology which is designed to keep homes and commercial spaces snug and warm. Let your customer know that all our windows offer a closed cell and insulated chamber, ensuring a robust thermal break that protects their property from the cold.

Thermal efficiency is a big benefit to your customer’s homes or residential properties because there are many ways to reduce their carbon footprint. This includes windows and doors with double and triple glazing, solar tiles, and even solar panels. What’s more, many new builds are installed with energy efficiency in mind, so you can inform your customer that it is an essential part of their home or residential property.

A thermally efficient building can significantly reduce your customer’s carbon footprint, which protects the environment.

Also, let your customer know that if their commercial building is naturally warmer, this will increase productivity. We believe that it is important to enjoy work, so if a building is thermally efficient, it will increase the overall well-being of workers because they will be working in a building with a comfortable temperature. Similarly, if your customers’ home is also thermally efficient, it will save plenty of energy and keep it warm and comfortable. This is especially true in cold winter months.

A warmer building will also protect its structure from tough weather conditions. Suppose your customers’ area is susceptible to violent winds or heavy rainfall. In that case, you can let your customer know that the buildings incorporate a weather seal to stop water from seeping in. If water does enter, severe damage can occur, such as rotting and mould, causing plenty of health problems. What’s more, a significantly warmer property can cause benefits if your customer is living with an elderly relative because they will feel less cold as a result. And it will reduce the impact of conditions such as arthritis and pneumonia.

Inform your customers that one way of increasing their energy efficiency is to include external wall insulation. This is where internal boards are installed by glueing them to the walls and insulating them with plasterboard. It will keep natural heat in your home while letting cold air outside, saving money on energy bills.

We hope you found this article helpful in understanding the benefits of energy efficiency. At Direct Roofing Systems, we believe your customer’s home or commercial property should be kept warmer because it will help make the planet greener and more sustainable.
