There is no question about the beauty of sash windows, however, if they are not looked after or repaired then they are notorious for letting draught through and becoming a drain on your heating bills. Thankfully you don’t need to grin and bear the chill, as it is more than possible to draught proof your sash windows. 

Why Draught Proofing Sash Windows Is Important

Original sash windows are made of wood, although wood has its benefits, it also has many downfalls. It is very susceptible to the weather and gets damp easily, or even begins to rot. In contract, in summer the heat can make it swell. All of this fluctuation can lead the wood to warp, meaning gaps will be created between the frames, allowing heat to escape and cold to enter. 

The obvious downfall of this is the cold breeze you will feel whilst sitting near your window. But on top of that it can also be a drain on your central heating, as the boiler will be working overtime to heat the property, whilst the hot air will be escaping through the cracks in your windows. Therefore to save on heating bills you should strongly consider a sash window draught proof fix up.
