slide 1: Important Things to Consider While Getting Windows
Glazing Options Installed
Windows can let in sunlight and fresh air and they can also keep out draughts when the
weather gets cool. Windows also contribute to the security of your house. Giving your house
a makeover by replacing existing glazing with modern glazing can have several benefits.
There are a few things to keep in mind when you opt for new windows glazing.
Security
Security is important and it is a good idea to look for suppliers accredited with BSI capable
of offering A++ or A+++ rated window frames and force resistant glass for windows glazing
options.
slide 2: Energy efficiency
Utility bills are rising by the day and windows can be a source of energy losses. If your
existing windows have single glazing then it is advisable to go in for double glazing that can
save about £100 each year. Double glazing keeps warmth inside and the cold outside and
works the reverse way in summer. In each case the energy consumption level goes down
directly contributing to reduced utility bills besides comfort. For areas that experience severe
winters a triple glazing is recommended for windows.
Peace and quiet
Double glazing also contributes to less noise transmission because it has acoustic insulation
properties yet another reason to opt for this type of glazing.
If the glass glazing is important so is the material of the glass. One can have plain glass or ask
for laminated safety glass or tempered/toughened glass that provides higher levels of safety
and security.
In any case when one considers retrofits and if you opt for double glazing you could choose
double glazing for windows with integral blinds. This type of glazing is becoming quite
popular due to the fact that the blinds are inside the glazing and can be lowered or raised by
slide 3: magnetic means and that they do not need frequent cleaning. There is no need for external
blinds and their inconvenience.
Glazing is just one part of the entire assembly. The frames and sections in which glazing is
enclosed and the precision with which they are crafted also contribute significantly to looks
as well as performance. uPVC and aluminium are popular choices because they are available
in a variety of profiles and can be precision cut and fitted to close tolerances. uPVC does
have better inherent insulating properties compared to aluminium. What is important when
considering widow glazing options is the reputation of the supplier for quality and precision
in manufacturing the retrofit unit. The installation also plays an important part in looks and
performance. Suppliers and installers who are members of regulatory bodies can be trusted to
provide the right guidance. Always look for guarantees when you consider installing new
glazing for windows.
Why just limit yourself to windows glazing Even doors can benefit by double glazing and
internal blinds especially patio doors whether they are the sliding type or the bi-fold type. It
is an investment that pays back for itself by way of energy savings and enhanced aesthetics.
