Does your current windows suffer from direct sunlight? Currently you may have noticed that your furniture, flooring and/or belongings are affected by the sunlight. The powerful UV rays of the sun can fade delicate fabrics or materials causing potentially high replacement cost or earlier wear and
tear on the affected items. Double Glazing reduces the amount of UV radiation that gets into the home, thus drastically reducing these affects. The insulation provided by double glazing also can stop materials expanding and contracting due to the lower fluctuations in internal temperatures. You can also take this a step further by considering glazing that is specifically designed to block UV as well. Something to consider if you have expensive furniture, that is difficult to replace.
In winter when you have the heating on do you notice in the morning moisture on your windows? Sometimes even leading to mould throughout the winter months? These droplets appear because the windows are cooler than the air inside the property. This leads to moisture on glazing. With double glazing the internal pane temperature is closer to the temperature inside the home hereby avoiding condensation. If condensation is a consideration for you and your home also be sure to specify you require your double glazing to be argon filled. This also stops condensation happening between the panes of glass as well.
