This inert gas acts as an insulating material and delivers tremendous sound proofing and thermal qualities for any home or property in Yateley.

The time may have come to look at updating your windows, if you have already got older double glazing in your property in Yateley but are dealing with problems, like draughts or condensation between the glass panes.

Double Glazing Yateley Hampshire (GU46)

Condensation develops when small gaps appear in the sealed unit, and warm air from inside the home finds its way into the space between the glass panes. As the warmer air comes into contact with the cooler outside glass pane, moisture is formed, with condensation being the result. If this is happening frequently, particularly during the winter months, you can either have the sealed unit replaced, or get brand new double glazed windows.

Changing to double glazed units will result in an immediate improvement in the warmth and insulation from outside noises, if your house in Yateley currently has windows with single glazing. The upgrade to double glazed windows can also help to improve the value of your home if you opt to sell.

DOUBLE GLAZED WINDOW MATERIALS AND STYLES

To obtain double glazed windows that match your choice and complement your home, you can use a competent double glazing fitter in the Yateley area.

Having hinges on one side, double glazed casement windows can open inwards or outwards depending on their design. This provides ample airflow in the warmer summer months and permits easier cleaning. For more security, casement windows can also come in a tilt and turn window. The addition of an extra hinge enables tilt and turn double glazed windows to open to a limited degree. Improved security is the result, because to allow a cool breeze to enter the room, they can be locked in place when partially open.

Double glazed sash windows with a more tradition appearance can be purchased to complement older and period homes in Yateley. These can be single hung, where just one pane is moveable, or double hung, where both of the panes can be slid 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 glazing models, and with regards to thermal losses, there's very little between sash and casement windows these days.

Bay windows look fabulous and can bring a feeling of space to a room. If you have an existing bay window it's possible to swap it for an equivalent double glazed frame to keep the style. The benefit of a bay window is the quantity of light it allows into a room, and if you have a deep sill on the interior side, it's a great place to install a window seat.

Today's double glazing units can be manufactured in virtually any colour through the use of uPVC materials. It's also possible to have wooden frames for a traditional look, or aluminium double glazing for a somewhat more modern feel. Easily coloured to blend in with your house, aluminium windows no longer have to be a dull, bland and grey like they were in the 70's and 80's.

All modern double glazing that is installed in homes in Yateley should display the CE approval mark. This mark is proof of the standard of both the glass and the frame, and should be plainly visible on the frame and on the inside of the sealed glass panel. All doors and windows manufactured in Britain and the EU, must display the CE logo. If CE approved materials are not used by your double glazing specialist in Yateley, they could be using cheaper components and made using less stringent specifications. While they may be adequate for certain uses, it's better to insist on only using double glazing that comes with CE approval and is backed by a warranty.

Once you have selected your preferred double glazing firm in Yateley and have agreed on a price for the windows and doors, they'll be custom made in your desired style and colour. This process could take from several days to a few weeks depending on your frame type, the opening options, the amount of windows you require and the design of window. The time frame for installation can then be arranged and should include any need for planning permission applications if required.

It's possible that you might require planning permission if your property is in a conservation area, has a restrictive covenant, is a listed building or is in an area such as the boundaries of a National Park.

Included in this time frame, is removing the old window frame and squaring up the opening for the new window unit to sit in. A normal property in Yateley can be completed over a couple of days with the minimum of disruption to you.

The Benefits of Double Glazing in Yateley

Double glazing can improve the energy efficiency of your home by keeping the warm air inside and preventing cold from entering. Studies have shown that up to 50% of heat is lost through doors and windows. The insulating properties of double glazing can reduce this loss by up to 81%. This means that your home will stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, and you can reduce your energy bill accordingly. Additionally, double glazing can help to reduce noise pollution, as thicker windows will reduce noise from busy roads, airports, and other sources.

Another benefit of double glazing is that it can reduce your winter heating bill by up to 50%. This is due to the fact that double-glazed windows prevent heat from escaping through windows, which decreases the need for heating. This helps reduce your household's carbon footprint, which is good news for the environment. Furthermore, double-glazed windows are more attractive to buyers and increase the value of your property.

Condensation is a serious problem in a home. Excess moisture that accumulates on windows and doors can lead to mould and rot, affecting the house's value as well as the health of its occupants. When condensation gets worse, it can also damage the foundations of your home. To solve this problem, you should invest in double glazing for your home.

Another benefit of double glazing is that it is more difficult to break or force open from the outside. This increases the safety level of your home and discourages burglars from breaking in. Moreover, double-glazed windows also reduce the effects of excessive heat on furnishings. Since your furnishings are better protected, your home will have a higher selling price.

Installing Cat Flaps in Double Glazing

If a cat is a part of your household, you might have considered installing a cat flap in your double glazing. This can be a brilliant way to give your cat the freedom to enter and leave the house as they please, without you having to continually open and close the door.

It's important to note that installing a cat flap in double glazing isn't a do-it-yourself task, and should be carried out by a specialist. Specialist equipment and tools are essential for this complex procedure. If you lack experience in this type of work, it is advisable to hire a professional cat flap fitter.

How to install a cat flap in double glazing:

When choosing a cat flap, it is important to consider the size of your cat and the features you need. There are a variety of cat flaps available on the market, so you can pick one that is the best fit for your needs. For example, you may want a cat flap with a microchip reader or a lock.

Once you've selected a cat flap, a specialist cat flap installer should be contacted. They will visit your home to assess the situation and measure the space for the cat flap. They can also advise you on the best style of cat flap for your needs, taking into account your specific requirements.

The cat flap installer will then order a new double-glazed unit with a hole cut out for the cat flap. This will make sure that the cat flap is installed correctly and that the integrity of the double glazing unit is not compromised.

The cat flap installer will return to your home in Yateley to install the new double glazing unit once it has been delivered. This involves removing the old double-glazed unit and installing the new one. The cat flap installer then installs the cat flap in the hole cut into the double-glazed unit, ensuring proper installation and maintaining the unit's integrity.

The flap installer will test the cat flap to ensure its proper functioning and demonstrate its settings and usage, providing you with the knowledge and confidence to operate the flap independently. (47902 - Cat Flaps in Double Glazing)
