MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Your windows and doors will need a small amount of maintenance, cleaning UPVC with a damp cloth or soap and water solution is recommended, heavy abrasives and solvent based liquids are not recommended. Hardware should be oiled with a product like WD40 every 6 months
CONDENSATION
Water vapour is continually present in the atmosphere. In the home this is natural water content, increased by normal living activities that create steam, e.g. bathing, washing, boiling a kettle etc, plus breathing. Our homes have become more energy efficient, i.e. draft excluders, better rated windows and central heating, all this has cut down on the natural ventilation through the home, which in turn will increase condensation on cold surfaces. An effective way to reduce condensation is to maintain good ventilation
FENSA CERTIFICATE AND INSURANCE BACKED GUARANTEE
Fensa Certificate and Insurance Backed Guarantee will be issued by the relevant companies and posted direct to the home owner where applicable, and will be activated after payment in full. The certificates can take some time depending on the volume of their work.
Your Fensa certificate proves that you have the correct energy rated glass and specification. This is required when you sell the property, and is transferrable over a 10-year period whenever the house is sold, more details can be found on the website www.fensa.co.uk.
