The Benefits of Double Glazed Windows

Energy efficiency

Making the investment in energy efficient double glazing can enhance the appearance and feel your home as well as reduce energy costs. It works by capturing pockets of warm air while keeping cold drafts out. This allows you to use less heating and cooling, which results in lower energy bills and a decrease in carbon emissions.

The traditional windows are the main cause of energy bills. However, installing double glazing in your Bromley home can help prevent this loss of heat and make your home more comfortable all year round.

Double-glazed windows feature two panes, with an air space between them. The air gap between the two glass panes is filled with argon which helps increase the insulation. This means that thermal energy is not able to pass through the two layers of glass and escape your home as easily as it does with single glazing.

Double-glazed windows also have insulation which prevents condensation that can cause damage to furniture and carpets. Furthermore, the double glazing acts as a sound-proofing device which allows you to enjoy peace and quiet in your home. This can also stop you from overheating in the summer.

Reduced condensation

Many people are concerned that their double-glazed windows might be affected by condensation, but the truth is that they're more efficient in terms of energy consumption and are less susceptible to this issue. Condensation inside only occurs when there's too much humidity in the air or a low room temperature, and it's best treated by improving ventilation and eliminating moisture sources like pets and houseplants shed. Condensation must also be cleaned up quickly as the lingering condensation on surfaces could cause rot and mould growth.

Double-glazed windows might show condensation on the outside of the panes when they are heated up the next morning or turn on the heating. This is normal and the condensation will dissipate as the glass warms. It's important to note that condensation can form not only on windows but also on frames, sills and plaster reveal on wood or uPVC frames.

If your double-glazed windows have condensation between the panes, it is an indication that the seal is deteriorating. This can be fixed, but it's expensive and does not address the root of the issue. It is therefore worthwhile to consider whether replacing windows is a more economical option in the longer run. However this is a decision that must be made in collaboration with the window manufacturer since it will depend on their anticipated life-cycle.

Sound insulation has been improved.

One of the great things about double glazing is that it's a great option to minimize noise outside your home. If you live near a busy road, railway line or airport, or if your neighbours are particularly noisy, double glazing is a great way to keep the extra noise from entering your home.

This is because double glazed windows have two panes glass that are separated by a space that is filled by air or inert gas. The glass itself is thicker than a single pane, meaning that it won't be as prone to vibration when a sound hits it. The argon between the panes exhibits different properties that are different from air, and can dampen vibrations before they reach you.

This will create a quieter living space, ideal for a peaceful night's rest or a peaceful ambience. You can go a step further and select Acoustic glass that has been designed specifically to cut down on noise.

This type of double-glazing features an internal layer fixed to reduce noise and absorb it. This kind of double glazing is more expensive than standard double-glazing, but it's worth the investment to lower the sound levels in your home. It's important to note that it's not a soundproofing option and you'll have to block out external noise by taking other methods like sound insulation and a solid wall.
