Stay Ahead of the Game with Part L-Compliant Windows and Doors from Alex Trade Frames
At Alex Trade Frames, we know that staying on top of the latest regulations is essential for installers, builders, and developers. With the 2025 updates to Part L of the UK Building Regulations just around the corner, ensuring your windows and doors meet the new energy efficiency standards is crucial. The good news? When you source your products from us, you can be confident that compliance is already covered.
Our windows and doors are fully compliant with the latest regulations, making it one less thing for you to worry about. This means you can focus on what matters most—running your business and delivering quality results for your clients.
What’s Changing with Part L?
The upcoming changes to Part L focus on reducing energy consumption, improving thermal performance, and cutting carbon emissions in homes. Here’s a breakdown of the key updates:
Stricter U-Values: Windows and doors will need to meet tighter U-value standards, offering better insulation to reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency.
Minimum Energy Ratings: All windows—whether replacement or new-build—must now achieve at least a ‘B’ rating for Window Energy Rating (WER), ensuring high thermal performance.
Improved Airtightness and Ventilation: Homes will need to become more airtight to reduce energy loss, but this will require mandatory background ventilation, such as trickle vents, to maintain indoor air quality.
For builders and developers, these updates mean new building projects need to meet stricter energy efficiency requirements. For installers, it’s about making sure the windows and doors you fit are compliant with these new regulations.
