Kidderminster Double Glazed Windows & Doors

Double Glazing Kidderminster Worcestershire (DY10): Double glazing can reduce noise levels, improve security and enhance your home's energy efficiency. Double glazing refers to the method of making the window using two panes of glass with a gas layer, commonly argon, between them. Because it behaves like an insulating material, this gas provides a property or home with impressive sound proofing and thermal qualities.

If your house in Kidderminster is already fitted with older style double glazed windows, and you're having problems such as draughts or condensation between the panes, now would be a great time to get some new replacement double glazing to get your premises up-to-date.

Double Glazing Kidderminster Worcestershire (DY10)

Condensation is caused by a small hole appearing in the sealed unit and allowing heated air from inside the house to enter the space between the panes. As the warm air comes into contact with the colder external pane of glass, moisture forms, with condensation being the result. It may be time to change your existing windows, if this is happening fairly often.

If your Kidderminster property has single glazed windows, upgrading to double glazing will see immediate improvements in the warmth and insulation from outside noises. You may also enhance you home's value (when you decide to sell), by making the upgrade to double glazing.

Hinged on one side, double glazing casement windows can be made to open outwards or inwards depending on the design. This provides plenty of airflow in the warmer summer months and permits easier cleaning. They're also available in a tilt and turn design which adds an extra degree of security where needed. Tilt and turn windows have an extra hinge to be able to open slightly. Increased security is the result, because to allow a fresh breeze to flow into the room, they can be locked securely into position when only partly open.

To complement a period house in Kidderminster, there are also options available for double glazed sash windows with a traditional look. There are double hung versions where both panes can be moved, and single hung models where only one pane can be slid open. Sash windows weren't renowned for their energy efficiency during the past, but today there's virtually nothing between the thermal loss of sash and casement windows, as modern day double glazed designs have reduced this problem.

Bay windows look fabulous and can bring a sense of space to a room. If your Kidderminster home has a bay window already, replacing it with a double glazed equivalent should not be too difficult. Bay windows bring plenty of style and character to a property, but the main advantage is the amount of light that they allow to flood into a room. A further benefit is having the opportunity to put in a useful window seat, if the sill is deep enough on the inside of the window.

Modern double glazing frames can be manufactured in virtually any colour you desire through the use of uPVC materials. For a more modern feel you could opt for aluminium frames, or for the classic look - wooden frames units. Easily coloured to complement your home, aluminium frames no longer have to be a dull, grey and bland as they were in the past.

You must be able to spot the CE mark displayed on any modern double glazing that is installed in Kidderminster homes. This proves the quality of the glass and the frame and the mark should be visible on the inside of the sealed glass panel and on the frame. The CE logo is a necessity for all doors and windows made in the British Isles and the EU. If CE approved materials aren't used by your Kidderminster double glazing company, they might be using substandard components and making their windows using less stringent standards. Even though these poorer quality frames may be okay in some situations, it is recommended that you insist upon guaranteed products that have CE approval for your home in Kidderminster.
