Double Glazing Blogger: Message To Heritage Organisations

Message To Heritage Organisations

The lastest biased crap to come out of the Heritage organisations prompted me to e-mail English Heritage with my thoughts and frustrations. Here is the e-mail I sent them (sent to the Yorkshire branch):

"To Whom It May Concern

Hello,

My name is Jason, or Double Glazing Blogger! I work in the PVCu industry and as you will be well aware there is a certain 'rivalry' between the PVCu and timber window industries. Over the last year or two the PVCu sector has been working hard to educate others and dispel certain myths about the PVCu industry and the material in general.

During this period, organisations like yourselves have published articles and written about the negative effects of PVCu in the home. Every time an article like this has been circulated, the world of PVCu comes back to explain what has been written is wrong. We continually ask the timber lobby and Heritage organisations to look at the hard facts and science in order for them to understand that PVCu as a window/door material is an ideal alternative. Yet, time after time prejudiced and biased articles keep being produced based on out-dated rumour and reputation, based on an ignorant view of past installations, never on fact.

The latest outburst from Heritage organisations was from SPAB and IHBC in the GGP Magazine. Both claiming that the proposed windows scrappage scheme would do immense damage to historical buildings and windows, and cause windows to be replaced needlessly. Again what they were saying was not based on fact or proof, but on self-opinion and bias. This is what prompted me to write this e-mail. You can see my opinions on my blog: www.doubleglazingblogger.blogspot.com

I would be glad to know your views on these matters. As an industry we are frustrated at all the bad press PVCu has had, and is continuing to have. So unjustified articles from yourselves and the one mentioned above is wholly unfair. If you have any reply to this, please e-mail back to this address or at my blog above.

I am not setting myself up as a spokesman for the industry, but as a person who has taken it upon himself to confront unfair and unjust causes.

Regards
Jason/Double Glazing Blogger"

Personally I was fed up with the utter rubbish that was being written about the PVCu window industry. Organisations like these refuse to look at the hard facts and science which would surely open their minds to the possibility that PVCu could actually do some good. I've invited them to respond to me either by e-mail or on here. I would like them to put forward an answer in reply to the e-mail, however, I'm not going to pin all my hope on it.

Hopefully many of you will support the action I've taken to confront English Heritage and other similar organisations.

Thanks for the support. Still haven't received an e-mail back in reply. I wonder if it ever got passed on to a person with significant decision making duties. Probably not!
