An insulated glass unit combines various glass panes into a single-window system. The main reason to use double glazed products is to improve insulation, reducing energy costs and provide more comfort in your home. 

The benefits of Double Glazed Windows / Doors

1

Ideal Energy Efficient

Double glazed windows and/or doors are an ideal energy efficient choice with the added benefit of minimising noise. The sealed air gap between the two panes acts as an added insulation layer.

2

Temperate Levels

This added thermal resistance reduces the amount of heat escaping in winter and keeps your home at a more comfortable temperature. Double glazing has the reverse effect in summer, preventing unwanted heat from coming into the house. This extra insulation lessens your reliance on artificial heaters and air conditioners and can ultimately reduce your energy costs.

3

Soundproofing
Sealed double glazing is effective for soundproofing reducing medium to high-frequency noise such as the human voice or road traffic noise.

FAQs

What is double glazing?

Double glazing involves an insulated glass unit that combines two panes of glass with a sealed air gap in between, acting as an insulation layer.

How does double glazing save on energy bills?

The thermal resistance reduces heat loss in winter and prevents unwanted heat from entering in summer, reducing reliance on air conditioning and heating.

Is double glazing effective for soundproofing?

Yes, the dual glass layers and sealed air gap significantly dampen medium to high-frequency external noises, such as traffic or flight path noise.

Can double glazing be retrofitted to existing windows?

In many cases, yes. We can evaluate your current window and door frames to see if retrofitting double-glazed units is possible.

Is double glazing suitable for Sydney’s climate?

Are double-glazed windows harder to break?

Yes, having two layers of glass makes double-glazed windows inherently stronger and more secure than single-pane windows.

Does double glazing stop condensation?

Yes, the insulated inner pane stays closer to room temperature, which drastically reduces the likelihood of condensation forming on the glass.

Can double glazing increase my property value?

Yes, modern buyers look for energy efficiency and acoustic privacy, making double glazing a high-ROI home improvement.

Is double glazing an eco-friendly choice?

By lowering your home’s energy consumption for heating and cooling, double glazing significantly reduces your carbon footprint.
