August 2009 - Timber Frame Kit Arrives!
















On 28th August the first delivery of the timber frame kit arrived from Inverurie! Here are some photos of the lorry (arrived early) waiting for the arrival of the crane to lift the panels into position, the arrival of the crane and lifting the panels off the lorry.

  2. During winter months you heat your house and during summer months you cool your house. In winter the hot air inside and in summer the hot air outside the house will try to transfer the energy it has to the less dense medium, i.e. the colder air. Thus, in winter you will lose heat and fuel as a result of this and in summer you will spend more electricity to cool your house. This means that you should seek for the lowest possible U values in your house while having any kind of construction, insulation etc. If we need to give figures for these, single layer glass windows have a typical U-value of 5.6 while double glazed windows have a typical U-value of 2.8.
