BFRC Proven Compliance
Find Out How BFRC Ratings Can Help You
BFRC Proven Compliance
The British Fenestration Rating Council (BFRC) offers the UK’s most trusted energy performance rating system for windows. When choosing or installing windows, it’s crucial to have more than just company claims; you need impartial proof that your windows will perform as promised.
Why Choose a BFRC-Approved Installer?
- Audited by BFRC: This ensures compliance and quality.
- Genuine BFRC-Rated Products: Installers use windows and doors that meet British Fenestration Rating Council standards.
- Correct Materials: They use the right glass and spacer bars as tested.
- Energy Savings: This helps reduce your energy bills.
- Environmental Impact: You’ll lower your carbon emissions.
- Comfort: Improve the comfort of your home.
The BFRC system verifies all components to ensure that the final product meets energy-efficient standards. With this certification, you can be confident that the product’s performance matches the manufacturer’s claims. Key aspects include:
- Heat loss through the frame material.
- Surface coatings on the glass to reflect or trap energy.
- Air leakage between the moving parts of the window.
- Solar gain throughout the year.
- Values for thermal efficiency and solar gain.
Why Insist on BFRC Energy-Rated Windows?
When selecting energy-efficient windows, it’s essential to check for BFRC’s Proven Compliance products. They allow you to make an informed decision about energy performance ratings, ranging from minimum standards to triple glazing A++. Furthermore, our windows feature the rainbow rating label, which verifies their performance. Additionally, our insulation tape ensures no draughts or unsightly mastic lines around the window perimeter.
BFRC Certificate – Why Are Energy Ratings Important?
The BFRC ‘rainbow’ label guarantees that your windows will perform as expected. It provides a clear comparison of different window products, enabling you to choose the best option for your home. Since the label displays technical details about the window’s performance, you can quickly assess its heat conservation capabilities.
