Retrofit Double Glazing

By retrofitting aluminum joinery with double glazing, you can significantly improve energy efficiency, reduce heat loss, enhance sound insulation, and increase the overall comfort of your home or building. It's a great way to make your windows and doors more thermally efficient without having to replace the entire joinery.

Please note that these values are approximate and can vary depending on the specific window design and manufacturer. However, the numbers provided give a general idea of the thermal performance improvements achieved with each type of window.

Thermally broken aluminium joinery is a type of window or door frame that is designed to reduce heat transfer and improve insulation compared to normal aluminium joinery.

In normal aluminium joinery, the frame is made entirely of aluminium, which is a good conductor of heat. This means that heat can easily pass through the frame, causing heat loss or gain and reducing the overall energy efficiency of the window or door.

However, in thermally broken aluminium joinery, a thermal barrier is introduced into the frame. This barrier is typically made of a low-conductivity material, such as polyurethane or rubber, which acts as a barrier to prevent heat from easily passing through the frame. It creates a separation between the inside and outside parts of the frame, reducing heat transfer.

The positive thermal effects of thermally broken aluminium joinery include:

1. Improved insulation: The thermal barrier reduces the transfer of heat through the frame, helping to keep the indoor temperature stable and reducing energy loss.

2. Enhanced energy efficiency: By reducing heat loss or gain, thermally broken aluminium joinery helps to reduce the need for heating or cooling, resulting in lower energy bills.

3. Increased comfort: The improved insulation provided by thermally broken aluminium joinery helps to create a more comfortable indoor environment by reducing drafts and cold spots near windows and doors.

4. Condensation control: By reducing the temperature difference between the indoor and outdoor surfaces of the frame, thermally broken aluminium joinery can help minimize condensation buildup on the inside surfaces of windows and doors.

Overall, thermally broken aluminium joinery offers superior thermal performance compared to normal aluminium joinery, making it a popular choice for energy-efficient and comfortable homes.

Splashbacks

We use Low Iron Glass has a clear appearance and offers more transparency than regular clear glass, which sometimes has a slight green tint. The crystal-clear appearance of Low Iron Glass allows for true colour display and greater clarity.

If you need cut-outs in your splashback to fit around your kitchen's powerpoints, we can accommodate that.

Double glazing offers several benefits compared to single glazing. Firstly, it provides better insulation for your home by trapping a layer of air between two glass panes. This helps to reduce heat loss during colder months and keeps your home warmer. In the same way, it also helps to keep your home cooler during hot summer days by minimizing heat transfer.

Now, let's talk about the positive effects of argon gas and low-e glass in double glazing. Argon gas is often used to fill the space between the glass panes in double glazing. It is a non-toxic, odorless gas that acts as an additional insulating barrier. Argon gas is denser than air, reducing heat transfer through convection and enhancing the overall insulation of the window.

Low-emissivity (low-e) glass is another important feature of double glazing. It has a special coating that reflects heat back into your home, preventing it from escaping through the windows. This coating allows natural light to enter while minimizing the amount of heat that can pass through the glass. As a result, low-e glass helps to maintain a comfortable temperature inside your home, reduces energy consumption, and can even protect your furniture from fading due to UV rays.

In summary, the combination of double glazing, argon gas, and low-e glass provides enhanced insulation, better temperature control, and increased energy efficiency for your home.
