    Secondary glazing solutions from the experts

    Are you looking for a way to enhance your double glazing without disrupting the aesthetics and style of your home and windows? If you have sash windows that are paramount to the look of your home we offer discreet secondary glazing that can save on your energy bills and maintain the look of your home.

    Safe, secure and subtle

    Not only can our secondary glazing save you money, it can contribute to the security of your home. Along with these features, it can also help soundproof your home, so if you live next to a busy road, it could be the solution to those sleepless nights!

    Proven Energy Savings

    Did you know that up to 10% of heat is lost through your windows. Installing secondary glazing adds an extra barrier to prevent heat loss, helping you save money on your energy bills while making your home more comfortable. Discover the proven benefits of adding secondary glazing to older houses, with a focus on energy savings and reduced household bills.

    Additional benefits of Secondary Glazing include:

    1. Enhanced Thermal Insulation

    Secondary glazing is often fitted with a 150mm – 200mm cavity from the primary window, creating an insulating layer of air. This air-filled cavity is crucial for retaining energy, acting as a powerful insulator. With the right glass, you can achieve a remarkable reduction in heat loss by as much as 65 percent.

    2. Low-E Glass for Optimal Thermal Insulation

    For top-notch thermal insulation, low-E (low emissivity) glass is often the best choice. Low-E glazing is meticulously engineered to offer the following benefits:

    • Superior Single Glazing Insulation: Low-E glass provides the very best insulation for single glazing, making it an ideal choice for older homes.
    • Maximum Energy Conservation: By reflecting heat back into the room, low-E glass reduces heat loss through windows, resulting in significant energy savings.
    • Discreet Installation: Secondary glazing with low-E glass is discreet and doesn’t compromise your home’s aesthetics.
    • Environmentally Friendly: Low-E glass contributes to reducing your carbon footprint by conserving energy and reducing heating consumption.
    • Affordable Investment with Quick Returns: Studies suggest that each secondary glazing unit installed with low-E glass can save up to £75.00 per year, offering a swift return on your investment.

    3. Preservation of Heritage and Value

    Secondary glazing is the product of choice for traditional buildings, properties in conservation areas, and listed buildings. It allows you to maintain the appearance, character, integrity, and value of your home while enjoying modern energy-saving benefits.

    4. Real-World Results

    Thermal imaging comparisons can illustrate the impact of secondary glazing on heat retention. Homes with secondary glazing installed show less heat escaping through treated windows.

    5. Impressive U-Value Performance

    Test results reveal the remarkable difference in U-Values between timber windows and sealed secondary glazed units. A typical timber window has a U-Value of around 4.7 W/m²K, while a sealed secondary glazed unit can achieve a significantly lower U-Value of 0.97 W/m²K. This substantial improvement in thermal performance underscores the effectiveness of secondary glazing in conserving energy and reducing heat loss.
