7 ways to stay cool in your home

| 20.07.21

wooden two storey house on sunny day

Winter may well be coming, but summer is here! As the mercury rises we look at some simple ways you can stay cool and comfortable at home this summer.

1. Get the air flowing

On a warm and stuffy day, a breeze can be a lifeline. Luckily it’s one of the simplest things to create – simply open some windows or doors! Whether you have casements, tilt and turn or sash windows, French doors or wide-opening bifolds – even cracking these open a tiny bit can make a difference. If you’re worried about security at night, window locks can keep windows secure while allowing you to benefit from a cooling breeze.

For added effectiveness, strategically open windows or doors on opposite sides of your home. This should set up a corridor of airflow, getting the air moving and provide some cooling relief. It will also provide a healthy dose of ventilation for your home, helping to vent airborne pollutants and moisture, and bringing in clean, fresh air.

2. Throw some shade

Retreating to the shade is a perfect way to stay cool in your home. Using conservatory, door and window blinds and shutters during the warmer months can help keep your living spaces comfortable.

While the evenings may be nice and cool, if your home has spent the day warming up in the sun it can be tough coming home to a virtual greenhouse each night.

During the warmest hours, you can achieve more effective temperature control with blinds and shutters so come the end of the day, you can relax and enjoy the long summer evenings in comfort.

3. Can’t stand the heat? Cook something different…

When the temperature soars outside, anything you can do to keep it cool inside helps. The kitchen is a good place to start, and the oven and stovetop in particular are common culprits. Nothing beats the warmth and aromas emanating from an oven on a winter’s day… in summer however, this can make the kitchen and adjacent living spaces uncomfortably warm.

Where possible, look to limit how much you use heat producing appliances like the oven on warmer days. If you have a barbecue outside this is the perfect time to make the most of it – open up those patio doors and fire it up in the fresh air – or prepare cooler meals and ones that require less prolonged warming.

4. Open those trickle vents

Opening windows and doors is a good way to actively and rapidly ventilate your home. However don’t forget the benefits of passive ventilation – like that provided by trickle ventilators.

This kind of background ventilation can provide a home with a secure and constant source of ventilation even when windows are locked in a closed position.

5. Install energy efficient light bulbs

Light bulbs give off heat as well as light, so switching to ones that radiate less of the former can make a difference. Energy efficient bulbs such as fluorescent and LED light bulbs generate significantly less heat than incandescent bulbs. If your house has more than a few of the latter, changing to eco-friendly bulbs could be a good idea.

Doing so could even save you money in the long term. According to Energy Saving Trust, by replacing all bulbs in your home with LED alternatives you could save around £35 a year on electricity bills.

6. Retrofit window film

Rooms with a high proportion of glazing – such as conservatories and orangeries – can be susceptible to overheating in summer. If this is a problem for you, you may want to consider window film as a potential solution.

Specialised solar control window film can help to dramatically decrease heat transfer across windows, keeping rooms cooler and reducing glare from the sun. This can increase comfort and can also be beneficial for furniture positioned next to windows or doors, which is often at risk of fading over time from exposure to UV radiation.

7. Is it time to upgrade your windows?

If your home is overheating this summer, one of the reasons could be that your windows aren’t providing enough thermal insulation.

Normally when we think about energy efficient glazing such as double or triple glazed windows, we think about its ability to keep warmth inside a home and the cold out. Yet the same insulating properties that make this possible also help to reduce the impact of hot outside temperatures by keeping warm air out and the air inside a home cool.

Upgrading the windows in your home can lead to better thermal insulation, as well as reduced noise pollution and a more comfortable living environment. It can also help to lower your overall energy usage and fuel bills.

Talk to a local GGF Member company about how upgrading your windows could help improve the comfort of your home.

Positive Outlook for the Conservatory Sector

COVID 19, Meetings, News | 19.06.20

Recently in the trade press, there have been some interesting statistics and comments indicating that 2020 could be a very good year for conservatory sales.

Purplex Marketing (a GGF Member) recently released research results that show online searches for home improvement are at new levels, with key words such as patio doors and conservatory displaying significant increases.

On the research findings Andrew Scott, Managing Director of Purplex commented, “Homeowners may be gaining a new appreciation of their home after lockdown and that combined with a spell of good weather is likely to have seen interest levels rise. However, it’s important to note that search traffic is not the same as intent to buy, but the market is certainly experiencing impressive volumes of sales leads.”

The GGF has also conducted some online analysis and can reveal the following insights:

  • Average Google searches using keywords for information about Conservatories is 216,670 per month in the month of May, the figures jumped to 276, 720 searches. An increase of 28%. 
  • MyGlazing.com conservatories’ page has also jumped 70% in a month with approx. 100 unique page views per day.

Source: Google Analytics

The figures are very encouraging especially following the GGF launching its Consumer Guide to Conservatories earlier this year. The Guide is available on MyGlazing.com and GGF.org.uk and it’s free to download for all to use.

With the COVID-19 pandemic, there is an obvious advantage for consumers getting a home improvement that doesn’t mean workers coming into the home. The GGF Safe Guides for Homeowners and for Installers are also helping companies operate in the home improvement sector since the restrictions were eased earlier this month.

Phil Goult who is Head of Conservatory Development (Sales) at Anglian Home Improvements and also Chairman of the GGF Conservatory Association commented, “We have noticed a spike in the interest and I think that the recent lockdown, people working from home and having to stay indoors has perhaps made them consider more home improvements. It’s early days but encouraging signs and we will have to see if the interest materializes into sales and installations.”

So is it the year of the conservatory? The end of the year will give us the full story but in the meantime, with the fine weather, the need for more home space with more people working from home and with many homeowners having cash in their pockets after months of lockdown and low consumer spending, the signs for the Conservatory sector are positive for the rest of 2020.

GGF Conservatory Association

The GGF’s Conservatory Association and Window and Door Group is meeting via Video Conference on Thursday 25th June starting at 10.00am.

If you would like to attend this video-meeting please contact technical@ggf.org.uk.

Edgetech to unveil innovation and digital evolution at FIT 2019

Members News | 08.04.19

Warm-edge experts Edgetech are set to launch a brand-new product at FIT Show 2019.

From the 21st-23rd May, the respected firm will be showcasing the new offering, alongside a range of other cutting-edge innovations, to thousands of visitors from right across UK fenestration.

For the past two years the Edgetech team have been focused on their three-tier strategy of innovation, operational excellence and customers at the centre – and the FIT Show 2019 serves as the perfect platform for the company to share the results so far.

Edgetech’s stand will form part of VISIT Glass, the new show-within-a-show entirely dedicated to glass manufacturing, processing and installation.

There, visitors will be able to see live demonstrations of Edgetech’s best-in-class spacer products, its intuitive new online ordering system and further digital enhancements to its market-leading technical service offering.

Edgetech’s Commercial Projects Manager Joe Erb will also be flying in from the US to give a daily seminar.

With a quarter of a century of fenestration sector expertise under his belt, Joe is chairman of America’s Insulating Glass Certification Council, and one of Edgetech’s most experienced and longest-serving employees.

Today, he takes the lead in growing Edgetech’s presence in the commercial and architectural markets – and his FIT Show presentation will focus on changing trends in the architectural sector, including the rising importance of shaped units, sustainability, and automated manufacturing.

He’ll also touch on the dramatic rise of traditionally commercial products in the residential sector, like bifold and patio doors.

What’s more, on the Tuesday night, Edgetech will mark the 30th anniversary of its flagship Super Spacer with a party at its stand – celebrating both the market leadership that first led the company to launch the world’s first foam warm edge spacer, and the continuing commitment to evolution that sees it poised to release another game-changing innovation in 2019.

“We always look forward to the FIT Show, but this one is shaping up to be particularly special,” comments Edgetech Managing Director Chris Alderson.

“We’ll be taking the opportunity to celebrate Super Spacer’s astounding success over three decades with friends throughout the industry. We’ll be introducing customers to our new e-commerce system. And, after a lot of intensive research and development behind the scenes, we’ll be unveiling our cutting-edge new spacer product.

“I’m also delighted that Joe Erb, one of Edgetech’s most senior and long-serving employees, will be making the journey to share his wisdom with us!

“We are looking forward to celebrating our history while bringing our customers the future of IG technology – please join us on stand C24.”

KJM Group Ltd

| 18.09.17

KJM was formed in 1982, taking its name from the three founding directors Ken Hammant, John Creasey and Mick Burrell.

Originally manufacturing our own windows on West Portway Industrial Estate in Andover, the company concentrated on uPVC windows as we were unable to manufacture anything else. In these early years, KJM won some substantial commercial contracts – the most notable being from Winchester City Council for whom we manufactured and installed hundreds of windows. Many streets in Winchester still have KJM windows to this day.

Over time the economics of manufacturing on a relatively small scale proved not to be cost effective and, with many new materials becoming available, and customer trends requiring a more diverse range of products, we ceased manufacturing in 1996. This move enabled KJM to offer a much larger product portfolio. Today we can offer a huge range of windows, doors and conservatories in uPVC, aluminium and hardwood. KJM’s largest supplier manufactures from their base in Wellingborough (near Northampton) and produce high quality windows to the company’s own specification. They are a quality supplier and have won many awards for their products and services.

We, understand the principle that people may require a quotation to find out a cost and not be bullied in to making a purchase. None of KJM’s sales team is commission based.

Customer service is paramount to KJM as we rely on most of our business coming through recommendation. No one can promise that every job will run absolutely perfectly – even the best has the odd hitch on rare occasions, but we can assure you that we strive for complete customer satisfaction.

The consequence of our efforts is that more than 80% of our work comes through recommendation or existing customers returning to us again

GGF Aluminium Group – A Resounding Success and an Early Win!

News, Politics | 27.05.22

After some delay due to the pandemic, the GGF Aluminium Group finally held its inaugural meeting on the 21st April at Solihull Moors FC.

From the welcoming breakfast baps right through to the post-meeting buffet, all attendees declared it a success. Chairperson, Jon Palethorpe of A Plus Aluminium, got things off to a great start firstly welcoming Russell Yates of Alufold Direct onto the team as Vice Chair and then proceeding to go through the orders of business.

GGF Technical Officer Kevin Jones was pleased to inform the Group that following discussion with the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC), the hoped for amendment to Approved Document L, i.e. the addition of calculations from BS EN 14351 for non-standard doors, had been accepted as an omission by DLUHC and the document would be amended accordingly in the coming weeks. An early win for the Aluminium Group!

A video report from GGF Head of Government Advocacy & Stakeholder Relations, Chris Beedel, gave attendees an update on all ongoing discussions with Government, LABC and future projects. This was followed by a video report from GGF Head of Sales & Marketing Tom Butler, who reported on current and future promotional plans for the Group and the GGF in general, including our presence at the FIT Show in early May.

From early in the meeting, the contribution from attendees was positive and healthy with future plans for the Group actively discussed including participation in other GGF Committees and Groups. To that end Dale Peglar was appointed as the Group’s representative on the Standards Committee and volunteers were requested for the Home Improvement Technical Group.

Following the meeting Jon Palethorpe said “I’m delighted that we have had such a positive start to the GGF Aluminium Group, the attendance and feedback from the inaugural meeting has been excellent and I very much look forward to helping build a strong vibrant Group that represents the interests and promotes the use of aluminium for members who design, produce and manufacture & install aluminium systems. The amendment to AD L is a fantastic example of what can be achieved when GGF & members work together.”
