What is Double Glazing?
Double glazing is made from two pieces of glass sealed together with an air space between. A double glazed window sits in your frame just as single glazing would, but provides a number of extra benefits. See our benefits page.
Clear glass accounts for less than 5% of a window’s insulation, the rest is being supplied by the air layers on either side of the glass.
Since the heat flow resistance of still air is much greater than that of glass, a glass unit made from two panes, enclosing an air space will have about twice the insulation value. Double glazed units provide insulation to windows and doors of a building like fiber-glass batts insulation to a wall, helping you to maintain a consistent in-home temperature throughout the year.
The Bit in the Middle
Warm Edge Technology is a term that has evolved as a result into IGU spacer systems which break the thermal bridge at the transition of the glass and frame edge. These less conductive spacers allow the IGU to have a perimeter edge which is warmer than a conventional aluminum spacer. This warm edge, comprising 50-60mm of an IGU perimeter, results in the glass surface being warmer in winter, which in turn means the IGU performs more efficiently and less condensation occurs.
