Secondary glazing could be a brilliant solution for the old windows in your Chipping Sodbury home. One of the problems with older, wooden windows is that they can break up over time. Wind and rain can damage the timber, leading to gaps and cracks emerging. As a result, your windows become more fragile, and your home can become colder.
However, you might not want to replace them because of their charming, traditional style. But, with secondary glazing, you won’t have to. That’s because, rather than replace your window, secondary glazing is like a new window for your old one. It goes over your current window, acting as an additional layer of protection, preserving it for years to come!
Secondary glazing works by going over the top of your current windows in your Chipping Sodbury home. With another layer of glass, it effectively turns an old single-glazed window into a modern double-glazed one. Not only that, but the bigger gap between the panes makes secondary glazing more energy efficient than double glazing, as it puts more space between your home and the cold.
Also, your new window will feature durable frames that are-made-to-measure against your current ones. Because of this, they’ll protect the wood underneath fully, with no gaps for wind or water to get through. Your secondary glazing unit will be fully weatherproof, preserving the old window underneath.
Another benefit of secondary glazing is time. When you install a new window, you have to replace the old one. However, you won’t have to switch your old windows when you choose secondary glazing. You can fit this new window on top of your old one, meaning you’ll be able to save time during the installation and save on labour costs.
Finally, you could save money in the long run with secondary glazing. Because of the modern glazing in the design, you can make your old windows more energy efficient. That way, you can make your home warmer while using less energy, helping you cut the cost of your energy bills. Secondary glazing can stop you from spending money on repairing your old windows too!
When your old windows get more fragile, they make your home more vulnerable. However, if you want to stay secure, secondary glazing is the perfect choice for your Chipping Sodbury home. That’s because our units are robust and durable, protecting your old windows with new security hardware.
Your new unit will have all the modern benefits of new windows, including multi-point locking mechanisms and impact-resistant frames. Not only that, but the frames can protect the hardware from rust and wear, keeping you safe for years to come.
Older windows could lose as much as 10% of your home’s energy. But, with secondary glazing, you could gain it back and then some. That’s because, with more space between the glass panels, you can not only block cold air from outside but capture more of your home’s natural heat.
As a result, your new secondary glazing unit will make your home more energy efficient, meaning you don’t have to rely on your central heating to stay comfortable. Instead, you can spend less money on your energy bills and even decrease your carbon footprint!
With secondary glazing, you won’t have to switch out your home’s style. Instead, you can preserve it for decades to come. Your new secondary glazing unit will be a made-to-measure design, fitting precisely over your old windows. That way, you’ll get full protection for your old timber frames.
Additionally, the secondary glazing won’t stand out, meaning your home will still retain its classic charm when people look at it from the street. However, secondary glazing will transform the inside of your home, creating newfound warmth and comfort.
