Everyone likes to do their ‘bit’ for the environment. Whilst recycling and using the car less are great methods of reducing our ‘carbon footprints’, they aren’t always done. Here are a few ways you can make your home ‘greener’ and do your bit for the planet.
Change your bulbs
Energy-saving bulbs are no longer the unattractive cousin of standard. With plenty of energy-saving bulbs to choose from for living rooms or conservatories in Somerset, swapping your old-style bulbs for the latter is a great way to reduce your impact on the planet.
Double glazing in Somerset
Installing Notaro Windows’ double glazing in Somerset is a great first step towards a ‘green’ home. Whether you have uPVC, Georgian or sash windows in Somerset, installing double glazing saves over £100 pound per year in energy bills and reduces a home’s annual CO2 emissions by 740kg.
Thick curtains
Thick curtains are a great way to make the most of your double glazing in Somerset. These act as another insulator to your home and, whilst decreasing outside noise, reduce the need for central heating.
Replace your Somerset doors
Whether your home has bi-fold doors, French doors or a uPVC front door, if they are old it’s possible they are letting in a draught. Ensure your doors remain as insulating as possible by replacing them with Notaro Windows’ range of Somerset doors.
