Double Glazing Southwell

Double Glazing Southwell Nottinghamshire (NG25): Installing double glazing can help to improve security, reduce noise levels and raise the energy efficiency of your Southwell home. Double glazing describes the way a window is made using twin panes of glass with a gas layer, generally argon, trapped between them. Acting as insulation, this inert gas provides tremendous thermal and sound proofing qualities for any property.

If your home in Southwell already has older style double glazed windows installed, and you are experiencing issues like draughts or condensation, now would be a good time to get some new replacement double glazing to get your property back in shape.

If your Southwell home has single glazing, the switch to double glazing will see an immediate improvement in the warmth and insulation from outside sounds. Upgrading to double glazed windows may also help to raise the value of your home if you decide to sell.

DOUBLE GLAZED WINDOW STYLES AND MATERIALS

You should be able to find an experienced installer in the Southwell area who will be able to match the style of window of your choice, and that complements your home. From contemporary patio doors and casement windows to traditional sash windows for older houses, double glazed frames can be found in a wide range of materials, colours and sizes.

Hinged on one side, double glazed casement windows can be made to open inwards or outwards depending on the design. This permits easier cleaning and also gives plenty of airflow during the summer months. Casement windows can also come in a tilt and turn window for added security. Enabling them to open slightly, tilt and turn double glazed windows have an additional hinge. This adds extra security as they can be locked in position when partly open to allow for a cool breeze to flow into the room.

There are also options available for double glazed sash windows with a more traditional look to complement a period home in Southwell. These can be bought in both single hung and double hung versions, where either one or both panes can slide. Sash windows were not recognised for their energy efficiency during the past, but these days there's pretty much nothing between the thermal loss of casement and sash windows, as modern day double glazing models have reduced this problem.

An alternative might be a bay window, which looks wonderful and helps to bring a feeling of space to even the most modest of rooms. If you have an existing bay window it's possible to change it for a double glazed equivalent to keep the style. The amount of light that it allows into a room, is the good thing about a bay window, and it is the ideal place to install a window seat if you've got a sill that is sufficiently deep on the inside.

Through the use of uPVC materials, today's double glazed units can be made in pretty much any colour. You could also have timber frames for a traditional feel, or aluminium double glazing for a somewhat more modern effect. Easily coloured to suit your house, aluminium windows no longer have to be a bland, grey and dull as they were in the past.

This proves the standard of the glass and of the frame and the mark should be visible on the inside of the sealed glass panel and on the frame.
