Energy Alternatives for Listed Buildings
Many a disgruntled homeowner has made the decision to install double glazed windows for energy efficiency only to find that their building is listed and they are unable to obtain planning permission.
Fortunately for these homeowners there are some alternatives. Specifically secondary double glazing for listed buildings is one way of enjoying the same efficiency of double glazed windows without the necessity for planning permission or costly renovation. This alternative involves installing a second window pane inside of your existing windows, which sounds more complicated than it truly is. Using secondary double glazing kits can make this upgrade a DIY project that can be completed over the weekend.
