Improve heat retention
A significant amount of warmth can be lost through your windows, which is why it’s so important to make sure that you’ve got good glazing. Made from three layers of glass with an inert gas between panes, our triple glazing is incredibly energy efficient, offering 20% more heat conservation than normal double glazing. A U-value refers to the thermal performance of a window – the lower the number, the less heat is lost. Double glazing ranges from around 3.7 – 1.2, however triple glazing is less than 1, offering incredible performance.
Added security
Triple glazing is significantly harder to smash. The extra layer of glass means that they’re heavier than standard double glazing, so the frames and hinges are stronger. As it’s installed as a sealed unit, it’s also a lot more difficult to try and lever from the outside too, making your home or business much more secure.
Reduce condensation in your property
Condensation forms when air collides with a cold surface. Moisture build up can cause issues with damp and mould, however triple glazing can help to take care of it. As there’s an extra layer between the inside and outside panes, the inner surface isn’t as cold, meaning moisture doesn’t form so you won’t have to worry about condensation on your windows.
Noise reduction
The extra layer of glazing can reduce noise levels, making your property much quieter. Combined with the added heat retention and extra security, triple glazing is a fantastic feature to highlight when it comes to selling.
