The Benefits of Double Glazed Windows Double-glazed windows allow less heat to escape, and trap it during winter months. They also limit the amount UV that enters the room and can cause damage to your furniture and artwork. Britelite offers a broad selection of low-cost triple and dual glazing doors, windows, and conservatories. The products it offers meet the stringent BSI Kitemark standards for security. Energy efficiency Double glazing that is energy efficient can enhance your home's appearance as well as reduce the cost of energy. It works by capturing pockets of warm air and keeping out cold drafts. This will decrease your cost of heating and your carbon footprint. The uPVC frames used by Eden Windows are made to be as durable and effective as they can. They've been made to provide an elegant appearance without sacrificing strength. Your new windows will be stylish for a long time, and will be easy to maintain. Traditional windows let in lots of heat loss, which can lead to higher energy costs. However, installing double-glazed windows in your Bromley home can stop this loss of heat and make your home more comfortable all year long. Double-glazed windows feature two panes, with an air space between them. The air space is filled with argon gas which helps to increase the insulation of the window. The two layers of glass keep thermal energy from escaping your home. Double-glazed windows also have insulation, which limits condensation that can damage furniture and carpets. Moreover, the double glazing creates a sound barrier, so you can enjoy peace and quiet in your home. It will also help you to keep cool during summer. Reduced condensation Many people are concerned that double-glazed windows be affected by condensation, but the reality is that they're more efficient in terms of energy consumption and are less susceptible to this problem. Internal condensation is only a problem if there is excessive humidity in the air or low temperatures in the room, and is best dealt with by improving ventilation and eliminating sources of moisture like houseplants and pet shedding. Condensation must also be cleaned up quickly as the lingering condensation on surfaces could cause rot and mould growth. In the case of double-glazed windows, condensation might appear on the exterior of the window panes, as they start to warm up in the early morning or when you turn the heating on. This is normal and will disappear as the glass warms up. It is important to remember that condensation can form not only on windows but also on frames, sills and even plaster reveal on uPVC or wood frames. If you notice condensation in the glass panes of your double-glazed window the seal will likely be damaged. It is possible to get this repaired, however sealing again can be expensive and doesn't fix the root of the problem. It is important to think about whether it is more efficient to replace the windows over the long run. However this is a choice that needs to be taken in concert with the window makers as it will depend on the expected life span of the windows. Improved sound insulation One of the best things about double glazing is that it's an excellent method of reducing noise outside your home. If you live near a busy airport, railway line or highway or when your neighbors are noisy, double glazing is a great solution to keep out the noise. This is because double-glazed windows have two panes of glass which are separated by a space that is filled with inert gas or air. The glass is thicker and therefore doesn't vibrate so much when sound hits it. The argon gas in between the panes has distinct properties than regular air, which means it can dampen the vibrations of the sound waves before they reach you. The result is a much more tranquil environment at home, which is perfect if you want to get an excellent night's rest or relax in a quiet living space. You can go further and select acoustic glasses designed to cut down on the noise levels. This type of double-glazing has an internal layer that's bonded to help in absorbing and reducing noise. It's more expensive than standard double glazed, but is worth the investment if you are looking to reduce noise within your home. This is not a soundproof solution. You'll still need to make use of other methods to block out outside noise for example sound insulation or a solid wall. Increased safety When it is installed double glazed windows can keep your home safe from burglars. Double-glazed windows are more secure than single panes. They are also more difficult to open from outside. Furthermore, they are also resistant to harsh weather conditions like snow, rain or even scorching heat. This makes them one of the best ways to ensure the safety of your family. The space between the two panes of glass creates an air layer, which acts as an insulation to minimize the loss of energy. This can help homeowners save money by preventing warm air from being lost during colder weather. This also reduces the need for artificial heating which could reduce the cost of electricity.
