Browse Forums Windows & Doors 1 Apr 21, 2011 10:39 pm Hi, So I have the plans for my first home now, I currently have 3 large north facing windows, a couple of medium sized south facing windows. A few small west facing windows and a large and small east facing window. I'll try and post up a plan if this will help. Currently my home will be 6.1 star with no double glazing. So I'm wondering if I need to worry or should I, add any kind of low-e coating or double glaze any of the windows. And any idea of the cost involved? I'm on a very tight budget so adding double glazing seems to be out for now. Thanks, Gareth Re: Low-e coatings for Windows - Do / Should I have them? 2Apr 21, 2011 10:50 pm theanonyuser Hi, So I have the plans for my first home now, I currently have 3 large north facing windows, a couple of medium sized south facing windows.
