A double glazed window comprises two panes of glass with an air gap between them. The air gap between the two panes of glass is filled with argon, which improves the insulation. The two layers of glass prevent thermal energy from escaping your home.

Double-glazed windows are also well-insulated which prevents the possibility of condensation damaging furniture and carpets. Double glazing also serves as a noise barrier, making it possible to enjoy peace and quiet at your home. It will also help you to avoid overheating in summer.

Reduced condensation

Double-glazed windows are less likely to suffer from condensation. They are also more energy efficient. Internal condensation only occurs if there is too much moisture in the air or low temperatures in the room, and is best dealt with by improving ventilation and eliminating moisture sources such as houseplants and pet shed. Condensation must be eliminated as soon as it is possible since it can lead to mould and rot if left on surfaces.

Double-glazed windows can display condensation on the outside of the panes as they warm up next morning or when you turn on the heating. This is normal and it will clear when the glass is heated. However, it's important to remember that condensation does not only gather on windows - it can also accumulate on the sills, frames and the plaster the surface of aluminum, uPVC or wood frames.

If the windows of your double-glazed home have condensation between the panes of glass, this is an indication that the seal has become damaged. This can be fixed, however it's costly and doesn't address the cause of the issue. It is important to think about whether it is more efficient to replace the windows in the longer term. However this is a decision which should be taken in collaboration with the window manufacturer as it will depend on the expected lifespan of the windows.

Sound insulation has been improved.

Double glazing is a great way to minimize outside noise. If you live near a bustling road, railway line, or airport, or if your neighbours are particularly noisy, double glazing is a good way to keep the noise out.

Double-glazed windows are made up of two panes separated by an inert gas or air. The glass is thicker and thus doesn't sway as much when sound hits it. The argon gas in between the panes also has different properties from regular air, and can therefore dampen the vibrations of the sound waves before they reach your ears.

This will create a quieter living space, ideal to rest your head at night or a serene ambience. You can go one step further and choose acoustic glasses which are designed to minimize the noise levels.

Double-glazing with this type has an internal layer bonded to help reduce noise and absorb it. This kind of double glazing is more expensive than standard double-glazing, however it's worth the cost to reduce noise levels at home. It's not a soundproof solution. It is still necessary to use other measures to block out noise from outside for example sound insulation or a solid wall.

The safety of the public is improved

Installing a double-glazed window can protect your home from burglars. As opposed to single pane windows double-glazed windows are sealed more securely and are less difficult to force open from the outside. Additionally, they are also resistant to extreme weather conditions, such as snow, rain or hot temperatures. They are the best method to ensure your family's safety.

The air between the two panes acts as thermal insulation, thus reducing energy loss. This saves homeowners money on their energy costs by keeping the warmth in when it is colder and stops the warm air from escape. This also reduces the need for artificial heating which could save money on electricity bills.
