Top Rated Double Glazing Windows in Glasgow

Double glazing is a type of window setup that allows for two panes of glass within a single frame, separated by a gap filled with a gas that has high insulation ability. This slows the movement of heat from inside the house to the outside, as well as noise coming in from the outside, allowing you to live in peace.

Double glazing can be installed within a range of different types of windows and doors, including French doors, patio doors, upvc doors, and also specialist windows etc.

Choosing to replace your single-glazed or old double-glazed units saves you money from day one. In fact, choosing Homeshield double-glazing could reduce your heating costs by up to 20% – saving a significant amount of money each year

High-Quality Energy Efficient Materials

Up to 80% of a double-glazing unit’s energy loss occurs at the glass edge, however, our windows come fitted with a warm edge spacer with advanced composite construction. This makes windows in Glasgow shine due to the cold weather that is notorious in central Scotland.

Lower heat loss at window edges makes our glass 3-4°C warmer, cutting condensation by up to 80%. In addition, due to the use of high-performance gaskets, our double glazing reduces noise pollution too.

Robust and Resistant

Our windows feature innovative Q-Lon weather seals. Offering high-quality windows with exceptional performance over a wide temperature range, the unique construction actively absorbs noise pollution, increasing acoustic insulation. Immune to rot, mould, mildew, UV, and ozone, CFC-free Q-Lon weather seals will last the lifetime of a window.

Both styles of windows in Glasgow will serve the same vital purpose – reducing both heat loss and noise pollution. However, they differ in style and installation method.

Double Glazing has a pocket of insulated air in the middle of the two panes of glass and are installed as a complete unit. Secondary glazing, however, is installed by adding the second pane of glass, or alternatively a plastic panel, to a single-glazed window on the interior side. This panel creates a gap filled with air between the original pane and the new one.

Of the two formats of glazing, it’s widely accepted by double glazing companies in Glasgow and beyond that double glazing is more effective than secondary glazing. The reason for this is that the insulating gas is more than just air, it’s often argon or krypton, which is far more effective and protects against energy loss. On top of that, it comes together as a professionally constructed unit, meaning it is ensured to have a tight seal made up to industry standards.

That being said, secondary glazing does have an advantage in that it’s less intrusive, meaning that it’s far more likely to be accepted in listed buildings, or other areas that have similar protections.

As strange as it may sound, the answer is yes. Double glazing is not built specifically for this purpose, of course, but due to its high degree of control over what manages to travel in through your windows, outside pollutants and other such triggers can be prevented from entering your home.

On top of this, the temperature control alongside the anti-condensation measures means that the moisture that would otherwise enter your home. Having a dry home means fighting against mildew, mould, and other bacteria that grow in the moist that have foul effects on the lungs.
