Changes In Your Home To Help You Save On Rising Energy Bills…

If you’re looking to make changes in your home to help you save on rising energy bills, why not think about stylish shutters from ShutterMan?

These days more than ever, we’re all looking to do anything we can when it comes to heating costs. Rapidly rising energy rates have become a huge concern for many homes, so now could be the time to think about energy efficient window shutters or blinds, to help reduce the financial impact.

Choosing a better insulated window covering is a key part of the process to make your home as insulated as possible. Double glazing, loft and wall insulation, are already a key part of homes in Uckfield, but choosing to invest in a new window treatment can make your property even more energy efficient.

It has been noted by the UK government that window shutters can act as an energy saving technology, helping to reduce the level of heat loss through one of four main ways:


• Conduction – Directly losing heat through the window itself
• Convection – The window’s cold surface cools the air circling round the room
• Radiation or re-radiation – The cold glass absorbs the heat from the air in the room
• Air leakage –Loss of warmth through gaps around the window frame or glazing

Energy Efficient Shutters For Your Home

Windows are one of the main places for homes to lose heat and choosing the correct window covering can provide much needed insulation. Adding a layer to your windows is important throughout the day, which is why a versatile solution like shutters is also an energy saving one.

Energy Efficient Shutters


With climate change a significant factor in our modern world, the seasons are no longer so clearly defined. As a result, knowing how to improve the energy efficiency of our homes is now a major consideration.

That means getting a grip on the natural resources – so alongside solar panels, bio-fuels and other eco-conscious home improvements, just switching what you’ve got in your windows could also have a big impact on your life.

Warmer spring and autumn months mean longer days, more varied weather patterns and when using modern technology such as thermal imaging cameras, we can see the importance of this activity even more. If you’re looking for an energy efficient solution, you don’t need to sacrifice your sense of style!
