We always ask for the energy report to make sure we comply. The energy report specified 40% thermally broken aluminium windows & doors with low-E double glazing, 30% non-broken windows with low-E double glazing, and the remainder single glazed. Not an unusual specification, but expensive and a scatter gun approach designed to achieve the figures rather than comfort or cost effectiveness. I had the energy rater re-rate the project using our windows in double glazed throughout - cost $120. Outcome a massive saving in cost, a better overall performance and 100% comfort... If your energy report is similar, contact EcoEco and we will make a huge difference...

I know for a fact he has been in the industry a long time, yet here he was discussing double glazed units with me, telling me that there was a vacuum between the two glass panels. Seriously.
