• They can heat a room quietly and at a rapid pace.  
• Heat pumps circulate heat via the room, which means the filter removes dust, mold spores and other air pollutants whilst heating or cooling.

Why choose Ecobobs quote service for New or Retrofit Windows & Doors

Changing your windows & doors in your home, or retrofitting fitting double glazing into your existing frames, can be a big job. Ecobob will put you in touch with the professionals who will recommend the best options available and will  advise on your requirements, supply the products and will install upon your request.

Why upgrade to double or triple glazing?

Planning a new build (hopefylly an eco home or green home) or upgrading your existing home then you will be considering the benefits of double or triple glazing if you don't already have it.

Modern materials and desing offer a wide range of benefits, toghether with adding value to your property. Some of the reasons why double glazing is a great idea:

• Living in close proximity to your neighbours, road, airports, or other noise pollution? Double glazing is a great solution for noise insulation and will reduce the amount of outside noise that penetrates your home. 

• High quality modern frames are thermally broken (if aluminium) and will not allow condensation or cold briding. uPVC and timber are already great at preventing this.

• Double glazing eliminates or at the very least vastly reduces condensation. (We had to constantly mop our sills and trhough away our mould covered curtains before retroftting our timber windows - no signs of condentation to date!).

• Old, single glazing can weaken over time and when broken creates dangeruos shards. Why wait for an accident? Upgrade to modern glazing to gain all its benefits.

• If you want a more energy-efficient home then double/triple glazing is the way forward. Reduce/prevent air escaping through old windows, letting the heat out and cold in. Create a more efficient heating system and more stable internal environment. Increased thermal insulation can save you a considerable amount on your energy bills over the course of a year.

• An absolute must for your new eco home project!
