The Benefits of Double Glazed Windows As opposed to single-glazed windows double-glazed windows allow little heat to escape, and they trap it in winter. They also limit the amount of UV rays that pass through, preventing damage on your furniture and artwork. Britelite offers a wide range of low-cost triple and double glazing windows, doors, and conservatories. Its products meet the rigorous BSI Kitemark standards for security. Energy efficiency Investing in energy efficient double glazing can improve the appearance and feel of your home, and also reduce energy costs. It works by capturing pockets of warm air and blocking cold drafts. This will lower your carbon footprint and heating costs. The uPVC frames used by Eden Windows are made to be as strong and durable as possible. They are made to provide sleek lines without sacrificing strength. Your new windows will look great for a long time, and will be easy to maintain. Traditional windows let in lots of heat loss, which leads to higher energy bills. However, installing double-glazed windows in your Bromley home can stop this heat loss and improve the comfort of your home all year long. bromley door company -glazed windows have two panes and an air space between them. The air space between the two panes of glass is filled with argon which increases the insulation. As a result, thermal energy is not able to pass through the two layers of glass and escape your home as easily as it would with single glazing. Double-glazed windows are also insulated, which limits condensation that could damage carpets and furniture. Additionally, double glazing creates a sound barrier, so you can enjoy peace and quiet at your home. It also helps to avoid overheating in the summer. Reduced condensation Double-glazed windows are less likely to suffer from condensation. They're also more energy efficient. Internal condensation happens when there is too little moisture in the space or if it is too cold. It can be avoided by improving ventilation and removing water sources such as houseplants and pet hair. Condensation also needs to be cleaned up quickly as the lingering condensation on surfaces could cause rot and mould growth. Double-glazed windows can display condensation on the outside panes when they warm up the next morning or switch on the heating. This is normal and it will clear as the glass warms. But, it's important to keep in mind that condensation doesn't just form on windows but can also form on frames, sills and the plaster exposed by uPVC, wood or aluminium frames. If your double-glazed windows show condensation between the panes of glass, this is an indication that the seal has worn away. It is possible to get the issue fixed, but sealing the windows again can be costly and does not address the root cause of the issue. It is worth considering whether it is more economical to replace the windows in the long term. This is a decision that should be made after consulting with the window manufacturer, as it will depend upon their lifespan. Improved sound insulation Double glazing is an excellent way to minimize outside noise. If you live near a busy highway, railway line or airport or if your neighbors are particularly noisy, double glazing is a great method to keep the noise out. Double-glazed windows are composed of two panes that are separated by an inert gas or air. The glass is more solid and therefore doesn't vibrate so much when sound hits it. The argon gas inside the panes has distinct characteristics than regular air and therefore can dampen vibrations of the sound waves before they reach you. This results in a quieter home, which is great for those who want an excellent night's rest or enjoy a peaceful living space. You can go a step further and pick acoustic glass that are designed to reduce the amount of noise. This type of double-glazing features an internal layer fixed to reduce noise and absorb it. This type of double-glazing is more expensive than regular double-glazing, however it's worth the cost to lower the sound levels in your home. It's important that you realize that it's not a soundproofing option and you'll have to block out external noise with other methods like sound insulation and a solid wall. Increased safety When it is installed double glazed windows will protect your home from burglars. Contrary to single pane windows double glazed ones are sealed tighter and harder to force open from the outside. They are also more resistant to extreme weather conditions like snow, rain, or hot temperatures. This makes them one of the best methods to ensure the security of your family. The space between the two glass panes creates an air space which acts as thermal insulation, reducing the loss of energy. This saves homeowners money on their energy costs by keeping the warmth inside during colder weather and stops the warm air from venting. This also reduces the need for artificial heat which could lower the cost of electricity. We offer a range of different options for glazing, from standard energy efficiency to the industry-leading Comfort Glass, which features an innovative laminate layer and a Low-E coating to stop 56% more heat from your home than traditional double glazing. The glass you choose to use will depend on the specific requirements of your Bromley or Croydon home. For example the Comfort Plus glass option is ideal for rooms that are susceptible to overheating since it blocks the sun from shining in and causing the furniture from being damaged. We also offer a variety of secondary glazing treatments that can be added to frames already in place to enhance their performance. There are tinted or toned glasses which can reduce the amount of sunlight that is reflected through them, as well as reflective coatings that can reflect more heat back into the room.
