Homeowners should choose the room they spend the most time in and replace the windows with cheap double glazing if they cannot afford to remodel the whole house.People who perhaps don't have enough money to install new windows in their whole house could start by getting cheap double glazing in their favourite room, according to an expert.James Strawbridge, an eco campaigner and TV presenter, said that people should consider which room they spend the most time in and look into installing cheap double glazing in that area, as this is a good way to start saving money on energy bills.Mr Strawbridge recommended that people also buy a good set of curtains to hang in front of windows to further insulate them"Nobody likes throwing money away, so it's a matter of trying to cut down on waste, which is the wasted heat," he said.Mr Strawbridge said that 17 per cent of people in country still have single glazed windows and are therefore allowing lots of energy to escape from their homes.The British Fenestration Rating Council has said that installing energy-efficient cheap double glazing can reduce carbon emissions by almost a fifth and save as much as £470 a year on energy bills.Posted by Liam Cass
