The Best Energy Performance


Ecostar Features & How You Benefit

An energy efficiency Star Rating is a measure of how much energy escapes from your home over the course of a year. It also measures how much artificial heating and cooling energy will be required to keep the inside temperature within a ‘comfortable range.’

Compared to other materials in a building, ordinary single glazed windows are poor insulators and let a lot of radiant heat from the sun into your home. Therefore, the selection of windows can have a significant impact on the Star Rating. Ecostar Double Glazed UPVC European quality windows significantly exceed the official 6-Star Energy Rating standard.

Your Ecostar Windows & Doors have very low U-Values too. Ecostar Windows have a U-Value of 1.4W/m2k with Ecostar Doors at 1.8W/m2k, which are the lowest currently available in the market.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE THE VALUE OF YOUR HOME?

TURN YOUR HOME INTO A 6-STAR ENERGY RATED HOME WITH ECOSTAR

For sheer thermal efficiency, superb looks and excellent performance, nothing beats Ecostar double glazed UPVC Windows and Doors. They are virtually maintenance free and will last far longer than wood or aluminium.

Wood will rot, split, crack and its colours fade, whereas UPVC will withstand rain, wind, sun, UV, ice and snow and will continue to look good without regular maintenance. Timber framed windows are naturally susceptible to rotting over time and regular, expensive maintenance is essential.

Aluminium windows have poor sound and energy insulation properties and fade with regular exposure to the sun.

Unlike UPVC, aluminium and timber windows and doors are not thermally efficient. Nothing beats UPVC for energy efficiency, which is why UPVC windows account for more than 80% of installations into private homes.

The Benefits Of Ecostar UPVC Over Aluminium And Wood

We do live in increasingly noisy communities, and not only in the major towns and cities, but across all of Victoria.

Traffic noise from cars & motorbikes, buses and trucks, trains and trams, dogs barking and noisy neighbours can be intrusive and irritating. For many people, the simple pleasure of a quiet evening at home no longer exists.

The majority of intrusive noise enters a building through the windows & doors. With Ecostar Double Glazing, it is possible to reduce external noise by up to 80% - now wouldn’t that make for a quieter life!

So Much Choice…

Casement & Awning Windows are very popular with Victorian homeowners as they allow full control over the level of ventilation you may require. You can take advantage of the unique Ecostar drop hinge, or safely lock on the night vent position, or use a Restrictor too.

All Ecostar customers receive a free upgrade to “Grade A Energy Rated Windows”, the highest official energy saving rating, and Ecostar Windows and Doors hold a host of official Australian and European Quality Accreditations and Kitemarks.

And for added peace of mind, Ecostar UPVC windows all come with the highest official security ratings, with Secured by Design, the Police-preferred high security specification. In addition, there are several British Standard Kitemarks for security, and a multitude of high security features as standard.

Our house now looks fantastic. People walk through the house and cannot believe how much warmer the house

has become. The 80% noise reduction has blown me awayV Soares, Northcote (Source: Leader Newspaper)
