Beat the Late Winter Chill: How Thermal Break Technology Saves You Money

The latter stages of winter often highlight cold spots and draughts around windows. Older or poorly insulated frames allow heat to escape, which becomes noticeable as cold outside air infiltrates your home.

Window performance plays a pivotal role in keeping your home warm and limiting energy use. Many homeowners focus on glazing but overlook the level of insulation offered by their frames, which can allow more heat to escape than expected through old, deteriorating systems.

Thermal break technology significantly improves window efficiency, which is where Endurance Aluminium steps in. Our thermally broken frames help our systems achieve impressive thermal performance while maintaining the modern designs homeowners crave. Add in our InsuLock technology, and we provide valuable added comfort and energy savings in your home.

The Science of Thermal Breaks

Naturally, heat moves from warm interiors to cold exteriors. This heat transfer contributes to indoor spaces losing warmth during colder months.

Metal frames conduct heat quickly, and in old-fashioned aluminium systems, heat would easily escape. This gave aluminium a name for being poor thermally in the past.

Endurance Aluminium solves this problem with our thermal break technology. A thermal break interrupts the heat transfer through the frame – insulating barriers separate the inner and outer frame sections to interrupt this transfer.

This reduces heat loss and improves the window’s overall thermal efficiency. It also reduces cold spots and the risk of condensation, while supporting improved energy ratings. With improved performance comes decreased heating demand.

Endurance’s InsuLock Technology

Our InsuLock technology is built into our aluminium frames. It provides an advanced insulation barrier within the frame’s profile, reducing conductive heat loss through the metal.

It supports the high performance of all our window systems, helping to keep warmth inside your home (something particularly important in winter). It contributes to the overall energy efficiency of your property and makes your home more comfortable to live in.

InsuLock allows our windows to maintain their striking contemporary aesthetics while delivering the modern performance UK homes expect. All our products are engineered for long-term performance and are suitable for both contemporary and traditional homes.
