It works by capturing pockets of warm air, and preventing cold drafts from entering. This allows you to use less heating and cooling, resulting in lower energy bills and a decrease in carbon emissions. Eden Windows uses uPVC frames that are as strong and efficient as they can be. They've been designed to create sleek lines without sacrificing strength. Your new windows will be stylish for many years to come and will be easy to maintain. The traditional windows are a major source of energy bills. However, installing double glazing in your Bromley home will stop this heat loss and improve the comfort of your home all year. A double-glazed window has two glass panes with an air gap between them. The air space between the two glass panes is filled with argon, which helps increase the insulation. The two layers of glass block thermal energy from escaping through your home. Double-glazed windows are also well-insulated which prevents condensation that can damage carpets and furniture. Double glazing can also act as a sound barrier, which allows you to have peace and tranquility at your home. This can also stop you from overheating during the summer. Reduced condensation Many people worry that double-glazed windows suffer from condensation, but the truth is that they're more efficient in terms of energy efficiency and less susceptible to this issue. Internal condensation is only a problem if there's too much humidity in the air or a low temperature in the room. It's best treated by improving ventilation and eliminating sources of moisture like pets and houseplants shed. Condensation must be eliminated whenever possible, since it can cause mold and rot if left on surfaces. In the case of double-glazed windows, condensation might appear on the exterior of the window panes when they get warmer in the morning or when you turn the heating on. This is normal and it will clear when the glass is heated. It is important to keep in mind that condensation can develop not only on windows but as well on frames, sills and plaster reveal on wood or uPVC frames. If you notice condensation in the glass panes of your double-glazed window the seal will likely be deteriorating. It is possible to have the issue fixed, but sealing again can be expensive and doesn't fix the root of the issue. Therefore, it is worth considering whether replacing the windows is a economical option in the longer run. However, this is a decision that must be made in consultation with the window manufacturers as it will depend on their anticipated life-cycle. Improved sound insulation Double glazing can be a wonderful way to minimize outside noise. If you live near a bustling highway, airport or railway station or If your neighbors are noisy, double glazing is a great option to block out noise. This is because double-glazed windows are made up of two panes of glass, separated by a space that is filled by air or inert gas. The glass itself is more dense than a single pane, so it won't be as prone to vibration when the sound hits it. The argon gas inside the panes has distinct properties from regular air, and so can dampen the vibrations of the sound waves before they hit you. The result is a much quieter environment in your home, which is ideal if you want to get the best sleep possible or have a relaxing living space. You can go one step further and opt for Acoustic glass that has been designed specifically to cut down on noise. This kind of double glazing has a bonded internal layer that helps absorb and dampen the noise. This kind of double glazing is more costly than standard double-glazing but it's a worthwhile investment to reduce noise levels at home. This is not a soundproofing solution. You'll need to use other measures to block out noise from outside like sound insulation or a solid wall. Safety improvements When it is put in place with double glazing, a double-glazed window can protect your home from burglars. As opposed to single pane windows double glazed ones are sealed tighter and harder to force open from the outside. They are also resistant to harsh weather conditions like snow, rain or scorching heat. They are the best method to ensure your family's security. The air between the two panes functions as thermal insulation, thus reducing energy loss. This can help homeowners save money by preventing the warm air from escape in colder temperatures. This also helps reduce the need for artificial heating, which can lower the cost of electricity.
