DOUBLE GLAZING AND THE GREEN DEAL LF Windows Blog Vince Jan 30 2017 The air between double glazed windows acts as an insulator and, therefore, keeps more heat in the house than single pane windows. This means homeowners have to use less heat to keep their houses warm. As a result, double glazing is classed as an energy saving installation and will qualify for the Green Deal. Anyone who wants to have windows installed under the deal will be visited by a Green Deal assessor who will produce a report to judge whether the property could save money with double glazing. In the event it does, which is almost certain for properties with single pane windows, the GDA can then arrange for the installation of the windows by a qualified company and will also arrange the funding. Whilst the Green Deal has yet to be officially launched, it does promise to help those who cannot afford pay for energy efficient devices upfront. The Green Deal will not only satisfy the government's desire for Britain's homes to become more environmentally friendly, but will also boost the economy by creating more jobs. Of course, only time will tell how successful the Green Deal will be, but at this moment is does truly look to be the real deal.
