Why Energy Efficient Windows Still Matter After Winter

Now that the heating’s off and the days are getting longer, you might think you can forget about energy efficiency — but don’t be too quick.

At Purely Glazing, we know that energy-efficient windows do more than just keep the cold out. With secondary glazing, your home stays comfortable, protected, and cost-efficient all year round — even when the sun’s shining.

1. Keep the Cool In

Secondary glazing helps retain warmth in winter — but it also works in reverse. By reducing heat transfer through your windows, it helps keep your home cooler in the summer months too. No more hot, stuffy rooms when the sun is out!

2. Protect Your Interiors

UV rays from sunlight can fade fabrics, damage artwork and discolour furniture. Secondary glazing can significantly reduce UV penetration, helping you protect what’s inside without sacrificing natural light.

3. Enjoy a Quieter Summer

Warmer weather often means louder evenings — BBQs, garden parties, or kids playing outside. Thankfully, secondary glazing provides excellent sound insulation, helping you unwind in peace no matter what’s going on outside.

4. Better Security While You’re Away

Planning a summer holiday? Secondary glazing adds an extra physical barrier to your windows, making it harder for intruders to break in — and giving you greater peace of mind while you’re away.

5. Plan Ahead for Winter

Don’t wait until it’s cold to start thinking about insulation. Spring and summer are the perfect time to upgrade your windows — no draughts during installation, no rain delays, and your home will be winter-ready in advance.

Energy Efficiency All Year Long

Secondary glazing isn’t just a winter upgrade — it’s a year-round improvement for your comfort, security and energy bills. Whether it’s traffic noise, UV protection or thermal performance, you’ll feel the difference every season.
