Pros and Cons of Spring Window ReplacementPros and Cons of Spring Window Replacement



Double-glazing

As spring comes around once more, many people are considering freshening up their home by installing a brand-new set of windows in their property.

Maybe you have been planning all winter for the changes you want to make once the weather improves and it is finally time to get those shiny new windows you are after, or perhaps you are still deciding if this is an investment worth making.

Before you make any final decision there are both benefits and limitations to springtime window replacement that you should take into account.

Pros of Spring Window Installation

Spring is by far the most popular time to have new windows installed and our expert technicians are kept extremely busy all season installing top-of-the-range double and triple glazed uPVC windows for customers across Scotland.

Just some of the reasons spring is a great time to have new windows installed include:

Freshening up your home

A thorough spring clean is nice, but nothing will freshen up your home quite like a brand new set of shiny windows.

With fantastic curb appeal, loads of natural light, and a uPVC frame that can be customised to suit whatever style you are going for, your home will look and feel great, starting the spring season off in style.

Easy Installation

As the days grow longer and the clocks move forward, spring offers more daylight hours for window installation.

This means that professional window installers will have your new windows installed in no time at all.

The low humidity and usually mild temperatures of this time of year are also conducive to easy installation and there really is no better time for stress-free, seamless window installation.

Temperature Control

Inefficient windows are now only a nightmare during the winter, where single glazed and poorly installed windows will seriously compromise your insulation, leaking heat and leading to higher energy bills, but will also make keeping your home cool in summer a complete nightmare.

Rather than continuing to use fans, portable air conditioning units, or similar to attempt to cool your home down, which can be extremely costly in terms of electricity consumption, modern windows are excellent at preventing heat transfer, keeping your home nice and cool in the summer and keeping heat in your home for longer when temperatures drop.

This means that although the initial installation of double or triple-glazing is still a significant investment, reduced energy bills over the life-span of the windows will repay your expenditure several times over.

Air out your home

Over the winter where regularly airing your home is challenging due to the inclement weather and low temperatures, there will have been a build up of dust, pollutants, and allergens in your home.

This can result in health problems such as asthma attacks and allergic reactions if left untreated.

As part of a good spring clean to get rid of such pollutants, and keep your home safe and healthy, opening up your windows on a regular basis is a good idea.

This is difficult, however, if your windows are stuck shut or difficult to open fully.

We have a huge range of easy to operate windows that open in a number of ways, including:

  • Casement windows
  • Tilt and turn windows
  • French windows
  • Top-Hung windows

This selection means that whatever the location of your home, windows, we have an option that can easily be opened to allow fresh spring air to blow away the remnants of a damp musty winter.

Cons of spring window installation

Spring is the ideal time to install new windows in your home but as with any time of year, there are some seasonal issues to consider.

Weather

Whilst spring usually offers the perfect conditions for window installation, nothing is ever guaranteed (especially in Scotland).

Our technicians are able to install Double Glazing Edinburgh windows in almost all conditions or seasons, but if snow, torrential rain, or high winds do occur, your spring installation may take slightly longer than it would otherwise.

Availability

Spring is popular for a reason, and you are not the only one looking to take advantage of all the fantastic benefits previously mentioned.

At Advanced, this is our busiest time of year, as it is for almost all window contractors, and you should get in touch as early as possible to arrange an appointment.

6 Ways to protect your construction sites from theft6 Ways to protect your construction sites from theft



Building site security

Theft is a major problem on construction sites, with an estimated £800m lost every year from the UK industry alone in stolen materials, equipment, and tools.

To prevent your site from becoming part of this damning statistic in the future, here are 6 of the best is to boost your protection against thieves and vandals.

1. Lock away materials

Building materials are one of the most commonly targeted items on any construction site due to the costly nature of metals such as copper.

Every building project needs these materials on site but that doesn’t mean that they need to be out in the open for all to see when not in use.

Keeping target materials in a secure location such as sheds or storage trailers until such time that they are actively needed on site, is a good way to make it harder for thieves to access them and make your site a less attractive prospect.

Shipping containers are another low cost but highly effective storage method that you could use for this purpose.

2. Keep equipment and tools away from the perimeter

Just because storing equipment and tools on site overnight is a necessity, doesn’t mean that you need to advertise the fact that there are there

When construction work ends for the day, making sure that all equipment is moved out of sight away from the perimeter fence will make the challenge of stealing them much more intimidating for thieves.

If you can take equipment back to the main yard then great, but if not make sure that all vehicles have their keys removed and that they cannot be reached from outside the fence or easily slipped through the fence by a staff member.

3. Only use materials when necessary

One of the biggest flaws in Building Site Security that we see on a daily basis, is equipment and materials left lying around for days on end without being used.

This is a risk that just isn’t worth taking and taking simple steps like ensuring materials are only delivered the day before being used, as opposed to several days, and moving vehicles off site once their services are no longer required are easy but highly effective ways to limit your risk.

4. Ensure there is enough lighting on site

Criminals thrive in dark poorly lit areas, giving them plenty of cover to sneak around unnoticed on your property.

Make sure that your construction site is well lit at night-time to increase visibility and that you always park vehicles in central locations close to light sources.

If you are looking to save money, then motion detected lights may be a good idea as these will not run the entire night but only be activated when necessary.

5. Install Surveillance Cameras

Having CCTV on your site can hugely improve your defence against vandals, thieves, and trespassers.

CCTV footage can not only help the police to track down intruders and possibly retrieved stolen goods after an incident, but your security team will also be able to monitor the feeds live and respond to intrusions in real-time, often intercepting potential criminals before any harm is done.

You may think that construction sites are not best suited to CCTV installation, due to a lack of mains electricity and often difficult to navigate terrain, but thanks to modern technology, this is no longer a barrier.

You can now install eco mobile CCTV towers on your construction site that run on batteries or solar and can easily be put in place, moved, and removed, with minimal disturbance.

To maximise energy efficiency even further you could opt for a motion detector activated CCTV system that only turns on when virtual tripwires are triggered by activity on your site.

This will ensure that you never miss an important moment in any key areas without having to worry about your system running out of battery.

6. Keep detailed records

The best way to track the movement of people and equipment is to keep detailed records of activity on your site.

An inventory will help you to identify if anything has gone missing and ensure that you are not purchasing too many materials or supplies that will be left lying around the site.

You should also ask for regular patrol reports from your security personnel based on their observations around the site.

They will be able to use their extensive security experience to identify potential weaknesses in your security and make recommendations for how to resolve them.

Contact Prime Secure

Prime Secure have been providing bespoke security solutions to commercial customers across the UK for over 25 years.

We specialize in construction site security, using a proven combination of alarm systems, SIA licensed security guards, and mobile CCTV towers to create a powerful security system to help protect your site and staff.

Heat Pumps Vs Hybrid Heating systemsHeat Pumps Vs Hybrid Heating systems



hybrid heating

Air Source heat pumps are a fantastic renewable energy solution that can help you slash your energy bills, reduce your carbon emissions, and massively increase the energy efficiency of your home.

Many homes across Scotland can be powered entirely through air source heat pumps, but in some situations a hybrid system combines a heat pump with a traditional fossil fuel boiler to achieve maximum efficiency.

With so many energy options available it can be difficult to know exactly which heating system is best suited to your needs.

For this reason, Greener Energy Group has put together this simple guide to air source heat pumps and hybrid heat pumps to give you all the information you could need.

Air Source Heat Pumps  

Air source heat pumps are one of the most popular renewable heating systems available in the UK, using the natural heat found in the outside air and converting it into usable energy that can help fuel your home heating and hot water system.

An air source heat pump works in a similar manner to a refrigerator except in reverse.

First, the fan unit will blow outside air over pipers containing a liquid refrigerant, converting it into a gas which is then compressed to raise the temperature even higher.

This gas is then moved into a heat exchanger, warming the surrounding water or air that is then circulated throughout your home into radiators, underfloor heating, or into a water tank for future use.

Air Source Heat Pump Benefits

There are many benefits to installing an air source heat pump on your property.

These include:

Saving Money

Oil and gas prices have soared in recent months and finding an alternative renewable energy source has never made more financial sense.

Installing a heat pump either alone or as part of a hybrid system, you will significantly reduce your reliance on fossil fuels and protect yourself financially for the future.

Research suggests that a hybrid heat pump could save the average UK homeowner as much as 50% on their annual bills.

Government initiatives

By installing a renewable heat pump, you will qualify for several government grants and initiatives.

These include the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) that encourages people to move away from fossil fuels by offering quarterly payments for up to 7 years after the installation of renewable heating technology based upon the amount of energy you produce.

Reduce your carbon footprint

If you are considering a heat pump you are clearly conscious of reducing your carbon emissions and helping to save the planet.

Whilst air source heat pumps do require some amount of electricity to operate and are therefore not entirely emission free, but they are much more energy efficient, converting 1 unit of electric energy into 3 or 4 units of heat, making them a very impressive 300-400% efficient, compared to the 100% of electric systems and maximum 95% of gas combi boilers.

Hybrid Heating Systems

In Scotland, there are many older large buildings that cannot be further insulated and have extensive heat requirements that cannot be fulfilled fully by a heat pump alone.

In these situations, or because the location of your property is not optimal for maximum air pump performance, a hybrid heating system may be the perfect choice for you.

A hybrid heating system combines all the benefits of a hybrid heat pump with the efficiency of your existing fossil fuelled boiler to ensure you have stable and reliable heat all year round.

For the majority of the year, the heating and hot water for your home will be provided solely by your air source heat pump, with your boiler only kicking in to help when temperature drops during the winter months and demand is higher.

Which system is best?

If possible, it is always recommended that you power your homes heating system entirely using an air-source heat pump to maximise energy bill savings and help to save the environment simultaneously.

As mentioned, the hybrid heating Glasgow system was designed to allow those whose home is not yet suited to full renewable heating to still benefit from all the advantages of a heat pump without having to compromise their comfort.

If you are unsure about what heating system is most suitable for your home, or whether it is possible to install a heat pump on your property at all, take Greener Energy Group’s completely free HOME SUITABILITY SURVEY today or contact our expert team.

How can I use my hot tub more during the summer months?How can I use my hot tub more during the summer months?



Hot tubs

In the heat of summer, taking a dip in a hot tub may not seem that attractive, but they can actually be a fantastic asset to your outdoor space during the warmer months.

Many owners take advantage of the cooler temperatures of morning and evening to have a soak, a fantastic way to invigorate your body for the day ahead or soothe aching muscles after a hard shift at work.

Bubble Box are Scotland’s leading provider of Aquavia hot tub spas and with over 23 years of experience in the industry, we understand just how beneficial a tub can be during the summer.

We have put together this guide, offering advice on the best ways to enjoy your hot tub when temperatures rise, helping you maintain a relaxing and healthy environment at all times.

Social Hub

Summer means BBQs, drinks in the garden, and relaxing with friends long into the night, and a hot tub is the perfect addition to any social occasion.

Your friends and family will love coming round for a soak and are a fantastic centrepiece to your outdoor space.

At Bubble Box we offer spas equipped with an industry leading Bluetooth audio surround sound system, allowing you to enjoy music in the tub without the need for wires or additional speakers to be carried outside.

There is also a panel within the cabinet itself to operate the system and the speakers can be controlled directly via any phone or mobile device.

Bluetooth technology means that your hot tub can be the hub of the party, providing entertainment, comfort, and relaxation all night long.

Relaxation and Recuperation

As summer approaches it’s time to get back outside and do what we love most.

The popularity of hiking, golf, tennis, and other outdoor activities soars during the summer and there is nothing better for aching muscles than a nice relax in the hot tub after a long day of having fun.

Hot tubs Glasgow are proven to be extremely effective at releasing tension, easing sore muscles, and generally fuelling recuperation after exertion.

The buoyancy of the water also contributes to relieving stress and promoting relaxation within the joints and muscles.

At Bubble Box, our we offer a range of spas that can be equipped with a Relax Impact system, using massage nozzles to blow air bubbles onto your body when submerged.

These bubbles produce a relaxing, stimulating effect and are one of the very best methods of promoting muscle repair and recovery following a summer workout.

Cool Off

The name hot tub does not do much to promote their usability as a tool to cool off, but on a warm summers day, this is exactly what they offer.

By setting the temperature of your hot tub to below that of the average human body temperature 37.5°C you can hop in and enjoy the refreshing water at any time.

It is worth remembering that it is easy to get dehydrated in the summer when using a hot tub, so drinking plenty of water is another way to both cool down, and to protect your health.

Poorly insulated hot tubs have a tendency to overheat in the summer as their flimsy roofs act as a greenhouse, baking in the sun and warming the water underneath to uncomfortable temperatures.

In order to ensure that you are able to use your spa to cool off, you should check that you have purchases a hot tub cover that offers sufficient thickness and quality.

At Bubble Bath, our Energy Saving Cover offers unrivalled insulation, preventing the heat from the sun from penetrating to the water beneath.

At 130mm thick at its maximum, a cover like this allows you to always have your spa at the perfect temperature whatever time of year, saving you money in the winter, and ensuring a nice cool refreshing dip during the summer.

Is it expensive to run a hot tub?Is it expensive to run a hot tub?



hot-tub

Hot tubs are a wonderful addition to any home, providing a luxury touch to your outdoor space and a fantastic hub for social gatherings or a chilled out evening alone. But how much do they cost?

At Bubble Box Glasgow, a leading supplier of bespoke hot tubs in the Glasgow Area, one of the first questions new customers ask our expert team is how much they should expect to pay in terms of ongoing running costs.

Luckily for them, where you purchase a high quality hot tub system, such as the luxury Eco Spas designed by our partners Aquavia Spa, the answer is pleasantly surprising.

The main ongoing costs of owning a hot tub are:

1. Electricity costs

There are a number of factors that determine just how much electricity your hot tub will use and the impact on your energy bills that will have.

These include:

Type of Hot Tub

Some spa types are incredibly expensive to run with inflatable hot tubs costing as much as £4 per day to run during the summer and even more when temperatures drop.

On the other hand, if you purchase a well-insulated premium hot tub from a respected installer hot tubs can be energy efficient and have a limited noticeable effect on energy use in your home.

Aquavia Eco Spa’s can be combined with an Energy Saving cover that uses many layers of polyurethane foam to maximise heat retention and by opting for this option you can expect to save use around 67% less energy than standard tubs.

The most energy efficient hot tubs on the market will only cost around 75p per day.

How you use your hot tub

Like any electrical appliance the more often you use your hot tub, and the duration of each session, the more you will pay.

It is recommended, to avoid health concerns such as heat stroke, that you only use your hot tub for up to 15 minutes at any one time at temperatures lower than 40°C and if you abide by these guidelines, you will significantly reduce the running costs.

2. Maintenance and repairs

So, running a hot tub doesn’t have to be a major financial commitment in terms of electricity use, but what about servicing and repairs if something goes wrong?

A hot tub service will usually cost around £150, and costs can be limited by using a respected local supplier to avoid paying additional call out fees to cover travel times.

For the best hot tubs and maintenance in the Glasgow area look no further than Bubble Box.

All Aquavia Spa products supplied and installed by Bubble Box come with unique warranties that help to give you peace of mind that if anything does go wrong you won’t have to break the bank paying for replacements or repairs.

Aquavia Spas come with the following warranties as standard:

  • 15 years on hot tub structure
  • 10 years on acrylic coverings
  • 2 years on components.

The Aquavia factory in Barcelona holds a range of quality certificates including ISO 9001 (Quality assurance) and CE markings (proving compliance with EU standards).

Aquavia can confidently offer these extended warranties due to the quality of their products making product faults extremely rare in the first place.

3. Ensuring Water Quality

In order to keep the quality of the water in your hot tub you may need to purchase a number of filters and water purifying chemicals that can add to the ongoing expenditure.

Bubble Box hot tubs, however, come equipped with Clean Water Technology that introduces ozone in the water through the internal filtration system.

This process helps to neutralise any debris found in the water including soap, body oil, and inorganic matter.

This system itself requires no observation and once activated will do its job and turn itself off again once finished.

Some of our spas are also equipped with Ultraviolet Treatment that uses UV technology to eliminate any bacteria in the water.

This system keeps your hot tubs water clean and fresh, breaks down combined chlorine, prevents mould growth, and reduces the need for chemical cleaning products by up to 80%.

This shows that by opting for a high quality hot tub system that includes in-built water cleaning products you can reduce the amount you need to spend on water purification to almost zero.

Contact Bubble Box Hot Tubs Glasgow

For information on any of our energy efficient range of industry leading hot tub spa systems contact us today on 01505 850 325 or fill out our contact form and one of our expert team will be delighted to help.

7 Reasons to Hire a Professional Carpet Cleaner7 Reasons to Hire a Professional Carpet Cleaner



Carpet-Cleaning

Your carpet is a vital part of your home, creating a warm and cosy environment for you and your family to enjoy all year long.

It is also, however, the furnishing that experiences the most wear and tear of any soft furnishing with heavy traffic in living areas attracting to dirt and debris that simply cannot be removed using conventional cleaning methods such as vacuuming.

To keep your carpet looking fresh and new, and to remove all deep lying allergens from the fibres, you should have your carpet professionally cleaned at least once or twice a year.

These are 7 of the biggest advantages of hiring a professional cleaning company such as Acorn Carpet Cleaning to help maintain the carpets in your home.

1. Eliminate Stains

Its every homeowner’s worse nightmare, you’ve finally decided on the perfect carpet to suit your home, only for a spillage or stain to leave it damaged beyond repair.

Coffee, wine, pet urine, mud, and ink are all causes of stains that are difficult to remove and can leave ugly marks if mistreated.

Professional carpet cleaners will use a hot steam treatment technique to eliminate stains or, where this is impossible as the stain is embedded, minimise its visibility.

2. Create a healthy living space

Dust and allergens that gather in the fibres of your carpet cannot be completely removed through vacuuming and other DIY cleaning methods.

These lead to bacteria growth that can result in health problems such as asthma attacks, allergic reactions, coughs, sneezing, and migraines.

Professional carpet cleaning companies use cleaning equipment that applies high temperature water to the very roots of your carpet fibres, eliminating allergens and leaving the entire carpet completely sanitised.

This will help improve the air quality within your home and generally make your living space a more comfortable place to be.

3. Remove Mould

Mould developing on your carpet is another side effect of DIY cleaning attempts that can cause a range of health problems.

If the liquid from your home carpet steamer or cleaning products does not dry properly, you may be left with damp patches on your carpet that promote mould growth.

Signs of mould growth include discolouration and unpleasant smells and its presence can lead to dermatitis, eczema, and various other allergic reactions.

4. Reduce high traffic signs

Carpeted areas that experience high levels of footfall, such as hallways, and landings, will wear faster than the rest of your carpet, due to the dirt that is traipsed through them.

Although preventing carpet deterioration completely is impossible, professional carpet cleaners will be able to get rid of the dirt itself, which can cause the carpet to become darker, and ensure that the difference between these areas and the rest of your home is much less apparent.

5. Freshen up your home

With all these reasons that carpets require ongoing maintenance, why bother at all? Well, carpets are a fantastic furnishing addition for any home, providing the finishing touch to your living space.

Just as a new carpet can completely revolutionise the look of your home, so to can a professional carpet clean.

If your carpet is looking tired and you are considering shelling out hundreds for a replacement a deep clean could have your carpet fibres looking as good as new and give your home the fresh look you’re after.

6. Remove cleaning residue

Sometimes despite their product description, home cleaning products can actually leave a sticky residue behind after being used.

If steamers or the products you use to treat your carpet are old, they may be faulty or damaged and leave some cleaning solution behind after use.

This can result in stains and damp patches that may attract mould, bad odours, or pest insects.

Professional carpet cleaning equipment is not only designed to make sure that no residue is left behind, but their hot water extraction method will also remove any existing grime that has been left by previous cleaning attempts.

7. Remove Odours

There are many things that can cause your carpets to develop a nasty smell that can make your living place a less than pleasant place to be.

These include:

  • Coffee
  • Pet Urine
  • Food Waste
  • Any other spillages

The deep cleaning method, used by professional carpet cleaning companies, is often the only way to completely eliminate these odours and allow you to enjoy your comfy carpet once more.
