If you've already got older double glazed windows in your home in Peterhead but are living with issues, such as draughts or condensation between the panels, it might be time to consider upgrading your windows.

Double Glazing Peterhead Scotland (AB42)

When small gaps develop in the seal around the glass, warm air from inside the property can enter the gap between the panes and causes condensation. Moisture forms as the warmer air comes into contact with the cooler exterior pane of glass, with the result that you've got a condensation issue. If this is happening on a regular basis it is time to change your existing windows.

If your Peterhead home currently has windows with single glazing, upgrading to double glazed windows will see immediate improvements in the warmth and insulation from outside sounds. You could also increase the value of your home (should you decide to sell), by making the upgrade to double glazed windows.

Enabling them to be opened slightly, tilt and turn windows have an additional hinge. Enhanced security results, because to let a fresh breeze to flow into the room, they can be locked firmly into position when only partially open.

The sash windows of the past were renowned for their poor standard of energy efficiency, but this problem has for the most part been alleviated with modern double glazed designs, and when it comes to thermal losses, there's very little difference between sash and casement windows these days.
