2015 - Year of Double Glazing

I am often blown away by the fact that here in Canberra, we are still using single glazed aluminium windows and doors as standard inclusions.  One of the coldest climates in Canberra and we don't insulate our windows and doors. Yet we do insulate the walls right next to the openings.  Why do we do that I wonder?  Oh that's right we can shut our heavy drapes and put pelmets on every window.  We all like to live in a cave don't we?  Well for the price of heavy drapes and pelmets we can have lovely insulated windows and doors with double glazing.

There are a lot of ways that you can have a comfortable home and I am going to be doing a series of blogs that will give ideas and inspiration to new home owners and existing home owners.

It is about time, residents of Canberra, that we looked outside the square of how we always built homes and be a little bit innovative.  The outcome will be a comfy home that is cheap to run.  Stay tuned for the next blog.

In the meantime, if you pop into our shop at 17 Townsville Street Fyshwick, our friendly staff will give you on the spot inspiration.
