Energy Efficient Double Glazed Replacement Windows

Double glazed replacement windows are the ideal option to boost your home's energy efficiency. They can help keep your home cooler in the summer and warmer in winter months by decreasing the loss of heat.

They also help reduce outside noise which makes them a great option for homes close to airports or busy roads. Upvc windows are the most popular but there are many other alternatives that are available.

Energy efficiency

One of the main reasons homeowners choose to upgrade their windows is to ensure better insulation and energy efficiency. Single-glazed windows can contribute to drafts, leaks and even windy conditions in winter. Double glazed replacement windows eliminate these issues and provide optimal performance throughout the year.

This is done by either leaving the space between two panes to form an empty space, or by filling it with a dense gas like argon to form an airtight seal. This reduces heat loss by keeping the warm air inside and keeping the cold air outside, so you won't have to reach for the thermostat as often in winter.

This layer of insulation will also help keep the heat from the sun from entering your home, meaning you can enjoy cooler temperatures without needing to turn on the air conditioning system as often in summer. Double glazing can help reduce your energy bills in Australia.

Low E glass replacement windows

One of the best ways to increase energy efficiency is to install double glazed replacement double glazing windows windows with low-E glass. The "e" in low E stands for emissivity, which is a measure of the amount of heat that passes through your windows. The lower the emissivity, more insulation you will get. This is because the infrared rays and ultraviolet rays aren't absorbed by the outside into the interior. By limit the transmission of these rays, you can lower your heating and cooling costs.

A tiny layer of silver, zinc or indium tin oxide is added to your window pane's surface. This invisible layer provides the low E glass with its insulating properties. The coating is transparent, which means it doesn't alter the amount of visible sunlight that passes through your windows. The coating is reflective and causes infrared and ultraviolet rays to bounce back to the point they originated, instead of passing through your window. This helps maintain a constant temperature, but also provides you with natural bright light.

Unlike standard thermal films, which are typically placed on the outside of your drapes or windows, low E coatings won't impede visibility and allow you to enjoy your view without sacrificing insulation. The coating is applied to the inner surface of your window's glass and is an integral part of the insulated glass unit (IGU). When used in conjunction with warm-edge spacer bars as well as argon gas fill cavities, low E glass can have the U-value of 0.9.

The reduction in UV rays can also aid in reducing the fading of furniture, carpets and curtains. This can reduce the cost of replacing these items as well as the hassle of dealing with fade and discoloration.

The addition of low E glass to your double glazed replacement windows can significantly decrease the amount of sun and heat that can enter your home. This glass will require a greater initial investment than double glazed windows. However, you will save money on energy bills as well as wear and tear on your heating and cooling system.

Tilt and turn windows

Tilt and turn windows are more secure than regular double glazed windows. Five locking pins made of metal slide into the rails of frame when the handle is in the tilt position. This prevents leaks and provides outstanding forced entry resistance and outperforms all but the most secure casement windows available. This is especially crucial for high-rise structures where security is a top priority.

The advantages of tilt and turn windows are healthy airflow, a clear view and energy savings. They also have a classic aesthetic that can suit almost every style of building, from modern to traditional. These windows are more costly than casement windows, so be willing to pay for the additional cost.
