With uPVC windows having been around for so long, aluminium windows still remain a mystery to some. Let’s take a closer look at how these windows can help improve your home’s energy efficiency, insulation and reduce condensation.
Naturally insulating
Aluminium is a naturally insulating material which makes it ideal for windows. This means it keeps your warmth in year round and ensures your home is energy efficient. By retaining heat, you won’t need to rely on your heating as much. This will reduce your carbon footprint and lower your energy bills. By being extremely insulating, draughts won’t be a problem in your home. High levels of insulation will also ensure that unwanted sounds won’t disrupt your peaceful home.
Keep condensation to a minimum
As pointed out in our condensation guide, some condensation on your windows is actually a good thing as it shows that your windows aren’t letting draughts in. Opening them occasionally to let some fresh air circulate will clear it. Our aluminium windows are extremely weather and watertight so you should never notice any condensation in-between your glass.

A warm window as well as home
Our aluminium windows are thermally broken which means they aren’t cold to the touch as you might expect from metal windows. They will keep the cold at bay and won’t radiate any of the cold into your room.
Enjoy this insulation for years to come
Aluminium is resistant to corrosion and long lasting. This means that your new aluminium windows will offer exceptional performance for years to come. Extremely low maintenance and with our 10 year guarantee, these windows will keep performing at the highest level for years with little effort from you.
Great for your home as well as the environment
Aluminium is 100% recyclable. At the end of your window’s lifespan, it can be made into another window or something completely different. You don’t need to worry about it clogging up the landfill. Our suppliers follow strict recycling protocols and do their bit to reduce their energy consumption. Here at Albany Windows, we are committed to reducing our impact on the environment and to help boost your energy efficiency.
