Latest "double glazing sheffield" Information

Double Glazing Specifications: Turning to the window glass itself, the insulating effect of double-glazing can be affected by a number of factors, including the cavity width, the use of argon instead of air in between the panes or by utilising a low emissivity coating that reflects heat back into the room.

Internal or External Glazing? Some suppliers say that internal glazing is more secure since there is no beading on the outside. However other suppliers say that external beading is more secure because the fitter will push the glass against the beading from the inside, which effectively locks the beading onto place. One supplier says that it is possible to simply "kick" out internally fitted glass panels.

Double-glazed window: A type of window having two layers (panes or glazing) of glass separated by an air space. Each layer of glass and surrounding air space reradiates and traps some of the heat that passes through thereby increasing the windows resistance to heat loss.

What is the difference between double-glazing and secondary glazing? Double-glazing usually consists of two panes of glass with a gap of about 16 mm between them. The panes are vacuum sealed into a single unit that is fitted into the window frame. Secondary glazing is an independent system of windows fitted to the inner window frame. The gap between the outer and inner windows is consequently much wider than in sealed double-glazed units. The secondary frames are aligned with the external window frames, to cause the least possible visual disruption.

Low E glass is a form of glass which when added to double glazing allows you to save even more energy. Typically double glazing using Low-E glass has energy conservation properties as good as normal triple glazing but without the 50% increase in weight.

Double glazing can be expensive. But if it's a good job, it can help you cut down on your heating costs. Unfortunately, there are some bad jobs and complaints about double glazing still arise. What The Law Says? A double glazing contractor is providing a service and so his work must be done with reasonable skill and care. The glass and frames must be of satisfactory quality, fit for any specified purpose and as described. Unless you agreed a price before he started his work, the contractor must charge only what is reasonable. Where no time limit was agreed in advance, the work should be finished within a reasonable time.

Low-cost Double Glazing: These DIY double glazing systems use transparent, flexible, "plastic" films and lightweight frames or fixing devices. They may not be as effective or as durable as commercially available double glazing, but they are extremely effective in stopping draughts from leaky windows or louvre windows, and are much cheaper! Indeed, these systems have been developed especially for louvre windows, which present a real insulation headache, as they can never be sealed properly against draughts.

"Are there any GOOD double glazing companies?" The answer to this is no. There are some truly awful national companies - [Safestyle and Coldseal (now gone - thank the Lord) are two good examples] however the industry seems to operate according to its own set of peculiar rules which I'm sure most customers find rather disconcerting and unattractive (and which I'm sure do more harm than good to company profits in the long run). Examples are, list prices which bear no relation to actual costs, this price only holds tonight' approaches, other high pressure sales techniques, salespeople who lie, disrespect for property at fitting & poor after sales service.
