What are the best technologies used in manufacturing energy-efficient exterior doors?

The choice of energy-efficient exterior doors is becoming increasingly common among single-family homeowners. The right investment makes it possible to reduce heating bills and a big step towards ecological household management. Which energy-saving doors should you opt for and what should guide your choice?

Why is choosing an energy-efficient door so important these days?

Energy-efficient doors in the home have many benefits – economic, functional, health and environmental. Increasingly, we are encountering so-called “horror receipts”, which often take the form of cyclical household maintenance bills. The fees make homeowners and apartment owners dizzy, so it is worth looking for savings wherever you can. Energy-efficient exterior doors alone, although more expensive than regular doors, guarantee less energy consumption. The higher price should not influence the decision to buy them – a simulation of the bills will make this investment worthwhile.

What materials are used in energy-efficient doors?

The construction of energy-saving exterior doors is different from traditional front doors. When creating them, we use materials that perfectly insulate the interior from low temperatures. Thanks to them, less heat escapes from the house, and less cold air penetrates inside. This leads to lower heating bills and, if installed in the house, air conditioning. At StalProdukt Zamosc, we fill doors with polyurethane foam. Foam works well as a thermal insulator, and over the years has shown that its properties are much better than those of Styrofoam.

In addition to the economic issue, the construction of energy-efficient doors allows the interior to provide excellent acoustics. Due to their construction and insulating properties, they protect rooms from noise. This is important especially for city dwellers – the less sound goes inside the house, the greater the comfort of life, better rest and sleep, which translates into well-being and health.
