With soaring energy bills, extreme weather warnings and an increased drive to improve sustainability, it is more important than ever that our homes are as energy efficient as possible. This can be a particular problem for period properties, which are notoriously draughty. Thankfully there are multiple solutions: from draughtproofing and adding secondary glazing through to installing double glazing.
If you are lucky enough to still have your home’s original windows, you should make every effort to preserve them. There are companies, including The Sash Window Workshop, who will carry out draught sealing in order to make your original windows as energy efficient as possible.
