Stop Press: Amendments to Approved Document L of the Building Regulations for England and Wales are due to come into force on 1 October 2010. The proposed amendments mean that ALL replacement windows of all types will need a BFRC (British Fenestration Rating Council) Window Energy rating of 'C' or above in England and Wales.
More: On the 13 January 2010, the Energy Saving Trust announced their intention to change the requirements for their accreditation of windows from a 'C' rating to a stricter 'B' rating. From 1st August 2010, all manufacturers of glazing will begin product re-registration with the Scheme. This process will take two months and from 1st October 2010, only products meeting the new criteria will be endorsed by the scheme.
