Update Your Property with Replacement Triple Glazed Windows
Did you know that 20-25% of heat is lost through windows? Imagine having a home improvement solution that could make your home more comfortable, reduce your heating bills and reduce the carbon output through your home. Well… triple glazing does exactly that!
Triple glazed windows contain three separate panes of glass that sit within a sealed frame. A pocket of air or an inert gas like argon is inserted within each pane, working as an insulator for noise and heat. Having a third pane of glass creates another airlock which dramatically improves the overall energy performance by up to 50%.
Energy efficiency can be modified by many factors such as:
– The type of air within the panes
– Coating on the glass
– Frame material and construction
– Fitting of the frame and seals
– The spacer bar system
– Gap between the panes
– Number of panes
– Thickness of the glass
Depending on any bespoke changes and specific requirements to modify the overall design, your home will truly benefit from triple glazed windows – no matter what type of property you own.
Is Triple Glazing Better than Double Glazing?
U-values measure heat loss through a material and measure how effective a building’s thermal efficiency is. In other words, it enables us to see how effective they are at preventing heat from transmitting from the inside to the outside of a property.
The lower the U-value, the better. Around 30 years ago in the UK, walls in newer properties were required to have a U-value of 0.6W/(m2K) or better – whereas now, regulations state that properties are required to have U-values of 0.18 or below, which is a huge 300% improvement. Although for windows, new build properties must have window U-values of 2.0 or lower and triple glazed windows (depending on the correct brand) can have U-values less than 0.8W/(m2K)!
These incredible measurements of 0.8 mean that triple glazed windows will lose less than half of the heat of double glazed products. With significantly better thermal performance, you can be confident that you will be getting your money’s worth.
