Overcome the clichés and change your old frames!
Don't stick to clichés. The replacement of your old frames by new energy efficient aluminium frames will be... legendary!
In our everyday life we all use phrases that have become established as examples of the social wisdom of our people. Some of them are so interwoven with our common experience that they contain widely accepted views. In this article, with humour,
a subversive mood and respect to our oral history, we present you 10+1 phrases of proverbs and well-established sayings, which you may need to rethink and revisit when it comes to your home’s window and door frames
!
"The new one (frame) is nice, but the old one is different"
Not if your old one has started to lose its mechanical properties, creating problems in your daily life.
"More haste, less speed"
Are you aware of the frames with a low track (threshold)for easy access; With these it's hard to trip, no matter how much you hurry!
"At some point I might change frames. Better late than never."
But the longer you delay, the more energy-intensive your home becomes and you miss out on subsidy opportunities from schemes such as the "Exoikonomo" energy saving program.
"It was a good (frame), it didn't cause any trouble!"
Until it caused trouble and now your living room in winter looks like an Eskimo’s house. A proper igloo!
"I don't change my team"
Yes, but do you have to do it with your old frames? There's no room for fanatics!
"Beautiful things come when you least expect them"
Correct. But if you wait too long, some things break, like frames... Maybe you should do a little research to find one that meets your needs?
"And when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it"
Well said Coelho, but your "piggy bank" might have a different opinion.
"Honey, it's not what you think!"
Well, actually...it is! Replace your old frames with new ones with higher thermal insulation performance and give her the best surprise of her life!
"Show me your friends and I'll tell you who you are"
Friendship is a great thing. However, when it comes to windows and doors, it is better to listen to the experts. And then tell your friends!
"Knock on wood, lest any harm comes to us"
In our case, of course, it is better to "knock"... on aluminium, because with modern aluminium systems, you have peace of mind!
"Wisdom does come with age after all..."
If it's time to replace your old frames, it's never too late!
The next steps
Maybe, indeed, the time has come to part with your old frames. There are many excuses not to do it. However, the sooner you move on to replacing frames that have problems, the more money you save - new insulating frames are equivalent to less energy losses - and at the same time improve the daily living inside your home. Especially in a period of generalized energy crisis, with an indefinite horizon of normalization of the situation, to proceed to the purchase and installation of modern aluminium frames is an advantageous and efficient investment in the long term.
After all, as our wise people say... "Waste not, want not"!
