In this Cherkassy is no exception, for example, the area of the Center - is, basically, panel houses of various series and 5 floors. Such houses constitute the main part of the city's housing stock. A considerable part belongs to the private sector. At the time of the construction of such houses on energy efficiency and energy saving, no one thought. Kommunalka was affordable. But now everything has changed. Tariffs have grown and everyone is trying to save, no one else wants to heat the street. The first step to solving this problem is the installation of energy-saving windows.
A warm window in Cherkassy will provide an increase in the temperature in the room, in the cold season, by 3-5 degrees without additional heating costs, simply keeping the heat inside and not releasing it to the outside. This is especially true for residents of the "D" District, Khimposelka, where many private houses and people try to save gas during the heating season. In summer, on the contrary, the summer heat will remain outside the windows, which will protect the room from heating and will save on air conditioning. It is most effective to combine this solution with external sun protection:
- awnings
- external shutters
- shutters.

The design can withstand the use of simple tools, a short scrap and a hand drill for 20 minutes. It's not about inexpensive windows in Cherkassy, as a special package will increase the cost of the finished product. If necessary, you can additionally install grills or protective shutters.
