Your Guide To Triple Glazed Windows

As the cost of living increases and fuel prices rise, many of us are asking the same question: ‘How can we save money?’. Sure, turning the heating off and boiling the kettle less might help a little, but there are far more effective ways to reduce energy consumption.

Among the most effective means of improving your home’s energy efficiency is via the installation of triple glazing. This great invention is favoured for its heat retention and thermal efficiency, but that’s not all!

In the following blog, we’ll outline all you need to know about triple glazing. From benefits to construction, read on to discover more.



Design

Before we discuss the benefits and installation of triple glazing, it’s worth taking a look at its construction. After all, it’s always helpful to understand a potential investment.

As the name suggests, triple glazed windows utilise three panes of glass in order to retain heat, preserve energy and dampen sound. Low emissivity (Low E) glass is used for the two outer panes, whilst low iron glass is used for the central section. As is the case with standard double glazed windows, the panes are separated using low conductivity spacers while the cavities are filled with argon gas to minimise heat loss.

What’s more, triple glazing can be mounted in a range of different styles; from casements and tilting windows to french doors and conservatories.

Benefits

As you may have guessed, there are a multitude of benefits associated with the use of triple glazing; this style of window is able to retain heat during the colder months and keep your internal spaces cool through the summer.

Not only is triple glazing favoured by homeowners up and down the country thanks to its increased insulation performance and ability to reduce heat loss and cold drafts, but it also offers a multitude of other benefits.

Triple glazing acts as an excellent form of sound insulation, ideal for those looking to block out external noise. What’s more, it's incredibly durable construction means it is much harder to break, minimising the risk of burglary and increasing your home’s security.
