Clean Air Program - what parameters must be met by windows to receive funding

Nowadays, when concern for the environment is becoming increasingly important, government programs supporting green initiatives are extremely important. One such program, which has gained popularity and interest, is the program “Clean Air”. Although some time has passed since its introduction, many questions still arise within it. Who can benefit from the subsidy? What elements can be replaced with Clean Air? Does Clean Air also include window replacement? What parameters do windows have to meet in order to receive funding?

What is the Clean Air Program?

The Clean Air Programme is an initiative that aims to improve the energy efficiency of buildings and reduce emissions of pollutants into the atmosphere. This is one of the key programs that aim to improve air quality. For this purpose, the possibility of receiving subsidies for the modernization of heating systems and thermal modernization of buildings has been introduced.

‍

Who is the Clean Air Program aimed at?

First of all, the Clean Air program is aimed at owners and co-owners of single-family homes. Owners or co-owners of separate premises in a single-family building can also benefit from co-financing. However, the premises must have a separate land register.

Window parameters in Clean Air

The Clean Air program enables the replacement of building elements that affect its energy efficiency. One of the elements that have the greatest impact on it is the windows. In order to receive funding from the program, we must remember that the selected window joinery meets the appropriate parameters. The main factor that we need to pay attention to is the heat transfer coefficient (read more about it HERE)

Which windows to choose to receive funding from Clean Air?

Replacing windows with more energy-efficient models is one of the key elements of thermal modernization supported by the Clean Air program. Its main premise is to retain as much heat as possible inside the building. That is why we must pay special attention to the previously mentioned  heat transfer coefficient (Uw). It informs us about the level of thermal insulation of a given window structure. To be more precise, the heat transfer coefficient shows how much heat energy escapes for 1m² partitions (in this case windows).

When applying for funding from the Clean Air program for the replacement of window joinery, please note that the heat transmittance of the window must not exceed 0.9W/ (m²K).

Co-financing under the Clean Air programme is an important support for people who want to invest in improving the energy efficiency of their homes. Choosing the right windows, meeting certain parameters, is a key step in the process of thermomodernization, which can benefit both the environment and the household budget. In our product range we find both aluminum and PVC profiles (Veka SL 76 and 82, Aluplast Neo, Decco Econoline), which meet the thermal requirements for the Clean Air program. So let's remember about environmental responsibility and choose solutions that support the goals of sustainable development.
