5 bed Beaconsfield Pilkington K Glass home up for sale

Author: Hazlemere Windows  |  Leave a Comment >>

It is not everyday that such a spacious and practical well positioned low maintenance five bedroom detached Seeleys home comes onto the market, two minutes from Beaconsfield Train Station by car (or 8 minutes walk!) that has a decent energy performance certificate, having had the cavity wall insulation and loft insulation professionally fitted on 1st February 2011.

However, what massively helps cut the costs of energy bills at the property is the high quality replacement aluminium double glazing that Hazlemere Window Company fitted back in April 1994. All the double glazed aluminium windows and doors have Pilkington K Glass, which helps retain the heat generated by the gas fired central heating system. The 17 year old white powder coated aluminium frames even to this day…

Author: Martin  |  Leave a Comment >>

I’ve been working with a company called Pageworks (based in Wolverhampton), over the last few months developing a totally brand new image gallery for Hazlemere Window Company. The company have invested in this rather “flashy” user friendly photo gallery to enable visitors to the Hazlemere Group website to see large high quality product images.

The new galleries contain over a 1,000 installation shots including aluminium and UPVC double glazed windows, doors and conservatories fitted by Hazlemere Windows throughout the UK, primarily throughout it’s core retail trading area of Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire, Hampshire, Surrey, Bedfordshire, West London and Middlesex. Each image on each gallery can be enlarged to full screen size, enabling potential customers to see the many different types of home improvement products,…

Pilkington energiKare can reduce heat loss by up to 90%

Author: Martin  |  Leave a Comment >>

According to an article on the Greenbuild News Website entitled “Energy efficiency grows in importance“, research from glass manufacturer Pilkington has found that 76% of homebuyers believe energy efficiency is a key consideration when deciding whether or not to buy a property. But according to the article only 27% of these would actually know how to judge a home’s energy efficiency.

Greenbuild News states that “Architect and TV presenter George Clarke is working with Pilkington to highlight the benefits of energy-efficient glazing, which can mean significantly lower energy bills. Replacing single with double glazing can save over £400 a year in fuel, while insulating your pipework and loft could save householders a further £150 a year.”

Pilkington’s Julia Berkin said: “It’s reassuring that energy…

Double glazing cuts Beaconsfield resident’s lorry noise

Author: Hazlemere Windows  |  Leave a Comment >>

Pensioner Bernard Turner, of North Drive, Beaconsfield has written to Buckinghamshire County Council on a number of occasions about the dirt and pollution caused by the many waste lorries which pass his house, just off the A40, on the way to junction three of the M40.

Veolia Environmental Services have applied to Bucks County Council to increase the lorry movements up to 710 a day in and out of the Springfield Farm landfill site in Broad Lane, Beaconsfield, on 50 days of the year. Beaconsfield Town Council have strongly objected on the basis that lorries will be passing through the town every 40 seconds during an eight hour day.

Self cleaning glass, fact or fiction?

Author: Hazlemere Windows  |  Leave a Comment >>

Self-cleaning was once described as “an impossible dream”, but apparently now thanks to an intensive research and development programme by the World’s leading glass manufacturer, Pilkington self-cleaning glass is neither fiction or an old wives tale (well so Pilkington “claim”!). Yes it can even deal with bird droppings!

Pilkington Activ, the World’s first self-cleaning glass has a unique dual action that harnesses the forces of nature to keep the glass free from organic dirt, providing a surface that requires less cleaning, whilst also at the same time delivering clearer, better-looking windows.

The secret of Pilkington Activ is a special coating that reacts with ultra-violet (UV) rays from natural daylight (which works even on overcast days and during the night) to break down and disintegrate organic dirt.…
