Double Glazing Bearsted

Bearsted Double Glazed Windows & Doors

Double Glazing Bearsted Kent (ME14): You can increase your home's energy efficiency, reduce noise and boost security through the installation of double glazing. These windows are manufactured using 2 panes of glass with a gas layer, typically argon, trapped between them, thus the term 'double glazing'. Because it behaves like an insulating material, this gas provides a property with impressive thermal and sound proofing qualities.

If your home in Bearsted already has older double glazed windows installed, and you're faced with problems like draughts or condensation between the panes, it might be a good idea to now get new replacement double glazing to get your premises back in shape.

Double Glazing Bearsted Kent (ME14)

Condensation is caused by a hole developing in the sealed unit and enabling warmer air from inside the home to get into the gap between the window panes. Moisture forms as the warmer air makes contact with the cooler outside glass pane, with the result that you have a condensation problem. It's time to change your current windows, if this is happening frequently.

If your Bearsted home has windows with single glazing, changing to double glazed windows will see immediate improvements in the warmth and soundproofing. You may also increase the value of your home (should you choose to sell), by making the upgrade to double glazed windows.

Double glazed casement windows are hinged on one side and can open inwards or outwards. This gives a good amount of airflow in the summertime and allows for easier cleaning. They're also available in a tilt and turn set up which adds an extra degree of security where necessary. Tilt and turn double glazed windows have a supplementary hinge to be able to open slightly. This adds more security as they can be locked securely in position when partially open to allow for a cool breeze to enter the room.

To suit an older or period property in Bearsted, there are also available options for double glazed sash windows with a traditional look. These can be double hung, where both sashes can be opened, or single hung, where just one sash slides. Sash windows were not recognised for their energy efficiency in past times, but these days there is very little between the thermal loss of casement and sash windows, as modern double glazing models have alleviated this problem.

An alternative may be a bay window, which will look fantastic and help to bring a sense of space to even the most modest of rooms. If your property in Bearsted has already got bay windows, you could replace them with equivalent double glazed frames. The huge amount of light that it lets into a room, is the main benefit of a bay window, and it makes for a perfect place to have a window seat installed if you have a deep sill on the inside.

With the use of uPVC materials, modern double glazing frames can be made in pretty much any colour. For a classic look you could also have wooden frames, or for a more contemporary feel even opt for aluminium frames. Easily coloured to complement your house, aluminium units no longer have to be a grey, bland and dull like they used to be.

All double glazing installed today should come with a CE approval mark. This CE mark should be visible on the inside of the sealed glass unit and on the frame, and is proof of the standard of both the frame and the glass. The CE logo is a requirement for all doors and windows made in the British Isles and within Europe. If your Bearsted double glazing company doesn't use CE approved components they could perhaps be manufactured using less rigorous standards of production and low quality materials. It's always better to insist that the company only uses double glazing that comes with CE approval and is backed by a guarantee.

The Benefits of Double Glazed Windows in Bearsted

Double glazing has a number of benefits for homeowners. For one thing, it can help to reduce energy consumption. It also can help to reduce noise from outside the home. It is estimated that double glazing can reduce noise in your home by as much as 60%. This is a big benefit, especially if you live in a noisy neighbourhood.

In addition, double-glazed windows are very good at controlling temperature, making them ideal for both summers and winters. Double glazing also traps cold air, which means that you can use less air conditioning in the summer and lower your air conditioning bills. Choosing windows with an A-rated energy-efficient label can reduce your annual energy bills by around £250.

Another great benefit of double glazing is that it helps a home retain warmth from the sun. This will reduce your heating and air conditioning costs in the winter and keep your home cooler during summer. This will help you save on your energy bill, as well as save on your carbon footprint. So if you are looking for a better way to reduce energy costs, installing double glazing is a smart move.

Double glazing can also increase the value of your home. Many homebuyers look for properties that don't require extensive renovation. It can also reduce noise levels, which are important to homeowners who want to sell their home.
