Double Glazed Windows

What are the benefits of installing double-glazed windows?

Double-glazed windows have increased in popularity over the years, particularly in more contemporary and modern houses, and have become a staple in newly built homes and renovation projects. Double glazed windows, sometimes known as double glass windows, feature two glass panes separated by a spacer and sealed together to create an insulating air gap before being fit into the window frame. This double glazing of the windowpanes offers some excellent features and benefits that can enhance the quality of any home.

One of the most significant benefits of using double-glazed window units is their improved energy efficiency when compared to single-glazed windows. The insulating gap between the windowpanes helps reduce heat transfer, which contributes to lower U values. The U value of a window is important as it measures the amount of heat transfer, and a lower U value means better energy efficiency. Double-glazing contributes to keeping your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, helping to keep your energy bills lower. Many double-glazed windows also have a coating that protects against harmful UV rays.

All our double-glazed windows feature a highly durable uPVC frame. UPVC (unplasticised polyvinyl chloride) is a robust plastic that is exceptionally strong and long-lasting. This combined with the toughened or laminated glass often used in many modern double-glazed windows means a window designed to withstand impact and extreme weather conditions and will not corrode, rust or split. UPVC double-glazed windows are easy to install and require little-to-no maintenance – simple wipe down with a cloth when needed.

Double-glazing is also effective at reducing noise from the outside, so they’re a great choice for homes in busy neighbourhoods near main roads. The double-glazing in our windows acts as a barrier to external noise by reducing sound vibrations and creating a quieter, more peaceful indoor environment – ideal for home offices and children’s bedrooms where reduced noise is necessary.
