About this deal

The classic herringbone stitch pattern and sleek grey colouring ensure a fit with any style of decor; perfect for the home and office alike. Insulating your French doors will help you keep all the heat inside your home, but this can affect the condensation that forms on them.

There are lovely designs available in a range of patterns – so this method can add cosy charm to your interior decor. After the frustrating meeting it was time for a hot cup of tea and some reflection on what had happened. This simple,everyday item stops warm air from central heating escaping from a room and is best used in the winter months when icy air sneaks through gaps under the doors.Perfect for external doors, this weatherbar provides an effective draught-proofing solution while adding a touch of elegance with its oak finish. It might sound obvious, but shutting the internal doors between your external door and living spaces will do wonders in helping to keep spaces warm. Our product range is suitable for every type of domestic, commercial or industrial building, including bespoke requirements. By adjustments using an allen key you can compensate for a slightly skewed door but if the door or frame are skewed or under/over size by more than a couple of mm then one of them would need to be remade to avoid having a gap. There’s a reason why front doors were traditionally in closed-off hallways and back doors in utility spaces.

The gunk under the sill is material that has been blown there by the wind; there are probably a few spiders lurking there too. Assuming there are 180 days when the solar thermal is not going to help much then using 150 litres of hot water per day and heating the water by 40°C gives an annual requirement for gas to heat water of a generous 1,260 kWh. He tells me that the SAP assessment was done on the house design rather than the actual build so does not take into account any differences between “as designed” and “as built” in it’s calculations. There was an acknowledgement that the MVHR air distribution boxes did in fact need insulating; apparently the housebuilder’s contractor had been misled by the manufacturer.I ask for his help and suggest his team use some assessment tools such as thermal imaging and air leakage testing to get a handle on the problem. Draught excluders come in a variety of forms, each tailored to different door types and homeowner preference. The soft and cosy cover is designed in a beautiful carved diamond pattern to not only provides practical insulation but also to add a touch of style to compliment any decor. If the draught is between the two doors, however, your options will be extremely limited – short of stuffing a layer of felt or rubber in between the doors during the winter, or hanging a plastic sheet over the entire door, there’s little you can do. There was no alternative suggestion for the problem from the housebuilder, but it was agreed that slabs would be removed from the patio outside to allow viewing access to the underside of the level access door sill.

The reduced cold air ingress lowers the necessity for heating systems to overwork, consequently saving on energy bills.

Stormguard Rainwater Systems offers a fully comprehensive range of extruded, pressed and cast aluminium rainwater systems. Then it dawned on me that a number of different professions do have the problem of trying to view difficult to access areas: be it in engineering or building inspection. We had actually used 6,246 kWh of gas in a little under 11 months with the coldest 40 days of the winter to go.

Designed to combat chilly nights, this draught excluder stands as both a practical guardian against the cold and a statement piece that complements your interior decor flawlessly. To add to my misery when I visit my mum to take pictures of her 1970s Aluminium sliding patio doors I get temperatures similar to my state of the art triple glazed doors. If your doors are leaking a lot of heat, you’ll end up using more heat trying to keep the inside of your house warm.

The pictures of the French doors in the kitchen told a similar story to the lounge with a cold area around the door threshold. For this reason, a soft pillow draught excluder is probably a better method for internal doors rather than your front door. If this happens there is no need to be concerned, but you can take a look at our guide on how to prevent condensation for tips on how to tackle it. In my mind there was certainly a possibility that the perimeter insulation was missing in Area A which was easiest to see and that thermal bridging was the issue. If there is a gap under the door then you can fit a brush seal or hinged flap at the bottom of the door,’ says Jill McLintock, Head of Product Marketing at Everest.
