Double Glazed Windows - How Do I Pick?

Apr 29th, 2009 Posted in home | no comment »

The question for most individuals looking to replace single glazed windows with double glazed units is why should I bother. On the face of it the answer is fairly apparent but when thinking of upgrading your your windows to double glazed units there is a lot you need to bear in mind. Some replace there windows because the elderly ones are rotting and others want to save a few pound on heating bills which have recently spiralled out of control. No matter what your reason is it’s a good idea to look at all the gains before spending our hard made cash.

One fundamental factor that needs to be taken into consideration when changing your windows is safety. A single glazed window when it breaks can be very dangerous. It shatters into many bits and shards some of them very long and extremely sharp. These pieces can be hurled many feet away from the break and can pose a serious hazard to anyone standing in the vicinity. The double glazed unit on the other hand is inherently much stronger and harder to break especially if they are fitted with safety glass.

A thief or burglar will have no difficulty in gaining access into your house if you only have single glazed units and frames. The old wooden frames are no real deterrent at all. The thief can easily either remove the entire frame or simply smash the single glazing to gain entry into your home. If you have great quality double glazed windows and frames fitted it’s much harder for the would be thief to gain entry. The double glazed units are almost impossible to break and the frame is much stronger meaning the thief will have to spend much more time in order to gain entry.

One of the worst things about single glazed units especially in cold climes is the fact they allow a lot of heat from the house to escape into the outside world. These days with energy costs as high as they are it’s like burning your hard made cash. Also large panes of single glazing are a cold spot in your house and are not very comfortable to sit by. Double glazed units can save you up to 40% of this lost heat. Standard double glazing is very efficient but if you pay just a little bit more you can add energy efficient glass which has a special coating to help reflect heat from a room back into the house.

When deciding whether double glazing your house is a great idea take the following into consideration. Unlike single glazing which is inserted into wooden frames double glazed units can be installed in many more different frame types. One of the most popular is PVCu which can now be manufactured in many different colors and is almost entirely maintenance free. The elderly problem of the frames fading has now been addressed and you can be sure they’ll look great for the lifetime of the windows. Timber frames can still be fitted if desired but they will need maintaining if you want to keep them looking great. Whichever double glazing you choose you can rest assured that they will enhance the look and increase the value of your home.
