Our selection of replacement windows is suitable because this could help cut down your energy bills and make your living space more comfortable. In this article, we will explain how double and triple glazing can help improve your home’s energy efficiency. Read on to learn more.
Why Should You Choose Our Energy Efficient Replacement Windows
Choosing our energy efficient replacement windows can significantly impact your energy savings. Our made-to-measure replacement windows can also ensure your home is warmer and more soundproof.
Our replacement windows come with double or triple glazing as standard, which are two or more panes of glass in a single sealed unit. What’s more, there are other ways you can improve your energy efficiency, such as using insulated curtains.
Upgrading to our replacement windows could help give your Northampton home plenty of benefits, such as a comfortable living space and fewer draughts and cold spots. What’s more, they can help reduce condensation build up inside the windows.
Benefits of Double Glazed Replacement Windows
If your windows are single-glazed, upgrading to our double-glazed replacement windows could be a cost-effective and eco-friendly choice. The two thick panes of glass excel at heat retention, keeping your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. What’s more, our double-glazed replacement windows and doors could offer more natural light to your property.
Benefits of Triple Glazed Replacement Windows
Our triple-glazed replacement windows offer an extra pane of glass, which could help increase your security levels as they will be harder to break. What’s more, our triple glazing offers lower U values, which could result in an energy-efficient and warmer home.
What Types of Glass Are Suitable For Replacement Windows
The most suitable type of glass for our energy efficient replacement windows is low emissivity glass. What sets this glass apart is that it comes with a thin metal oxide coating, which helps reflect heat back in your home. By letting in light from the outside, this can still contribute to a warmer and brighter living space.
To increase energy efficiency further, you can also take advantage of warm edge spacer bars. This is a key component in our aluminium and uPVC replacement windows, which helps insulate the edges of a glazing unit. This can reduce your carbon footprint, ensuring it is suitable for the environment.
Which Glazing Deals With Condensation Better?
Triple glazing could help deal with condensation better. The extra pane of glass helps reduce the temperature inside and outside your home. As a result, your replacement windows won’t suffer from condensation as much, which could lead to less mould on the frames.
If you find that your double-glazed replacement windows in your Northamptonshire home are misty, switching to triple-glazed windows could help solve your problems. However, if the windows are performing well, our double-glazed replacement windows could be a cost-effective choice.
Which Glazing Is More Energy Efficient
Both our double and triple glazed replacement windows are very energy efficient. However, triple glazing windows have a lower U value, which measures how much heat is lost through your replacement windows. However, double glazing could hit the sweet spot in Northampton and the surrounding areas, particularly in mild temperatures.
Is Triple Glazing Worth the Extra Cost?
When choosing a window to upgrade, you might wonder if triple glazing is worth the extra cost. This could depend on your location and how cold it gets. Double glazing could be suitable for areas with a milder temperature.
What’s more, even though triple glazing might cost more, it could help reduce your energy bills in the long term. At T&K Home Improvements, we install a bespoke range of double or triple glazed replacement windows. These include casement windows, flush sash windows, and tilt and turn windows. As a result this could help save on energy bills.
