Categories: Windows

uPVC windows are becoming a more popular choice for people who own period properties. Preserving the original appearance of a window is important – because heritage homes must blend in with their local surroundings.

Approving uPVC Windows in a Conservation Area: A Case Study

Bristol

Local authorities monitor and approve requests to fit uPVC windows in conservation sites, where like-for-like replacements are normally mandatory. Until recently, timber was regarded as the best material for the job.

Getting planning permission to use uPVC windows for refurbishment or repair projects is easier than it used to be. Advancements in window design mean that uPVC is approved for use in conservation sites by local councils more often.

The Evolution Storm 2, exclusive to Panoramic, has been demonstrated to the planning authorities in Bristol and has been deemed a suitable replacement for timber windows in a conservation area. The unique storm window retains the elegant slim proportions of traditional hardwood windows. The timber style jointing system combined with an unparalleled attention to detail make it difficult to believe it isn’t wood.

As a result they have been approved for use in many sensitive conservation areas throughout the UK.

Furthermore the window range are ‘A’ rated for energy performance and the use of the latest generation of modern materials means minimal maintenance, enhanced security and lower costs compared to timber windows.
