Double Glazing Stevenston

Stevenston Double Glazed Windows & Doors

Double Glazing Stevenston Scotland (KA20): You can boost security, reduce noise and enhance your home's energy efficiency through the installation of double glazing. These windows are produced using a double layer of glass with a gas layer, commonly argon, trapped between them, hence the expression 'double glazing'. Because it acts like an insulating material, this gas provides a home with effective sound proofing and thermal qualities.

If you've already got older style double glazing in your property in Stevenston but are experiencing issues, such as draughts or condensation between the panels, it may be time to consider swapping your windows.

Double Glazing Stevenston Scotland (KA20)

Condensation is caused by a hole developing in the seal around the glass and permitting warm air from inside the house to enter the gap between the glass panes. As the colder outside glass pane makes contact with the warm air, moisture droplets form as condensation. If this is happening fairly often the time may have come to replace your current windows.

The switch to double glazed windows will see an immediate improvement in the warmth and insulation from outside sounds, if your home in Stevenston currently has windows with single glazing. You may also raise you home's value (when you elect to sell), by making the upgrade to double glazing.

Hinged on one side, double glazing casement windows can open inwards or outwards depending on their design. This means that they're easier to clean, and offer the possibility of adequate airflow during the summer season. For extra security, casement windows can also come in a tilt and turn window. Allowing them to be opened a small amount, tilt and turn double glazed windows have a supplementary hinge. Increased security results, because to allow a fresh breeze to flow into the room, they can be locked in place when partly open.

For that classic look to suit a period home in Stevenston, there are double glazing sash windows on the market. These can be double hung, where both of the sashes can be slid open, or single hung, where just one sash is moveable.
