Glazing Options

This is an encouraging development, as the technology can improve energy efficiency by up to 40%, whilst having zero or low impact on the building, which in most cases would not require LBC. In addition to the enhanced thermal performance, secondary glazing can also eliminate draughts and improve acoustic privacy. For windows facing direct sunlight, we recommend low-emissivity glass (Low-E) that help to regulate room temperature because rooms quickly overheat with solar gain. If you've ever sat in a conservatory on a sunny day you will know how oppressive it can get. If you’re interested in finding out more about our products and services, we’re happy to talk you through your options. Hammerite Smooth is the only paint that adheres to the magnetic tape and acts as an undercoat for your preferred paint type and colour.

This provides easy, quick and cost effective heat insulation too, along with instant access to the window restrictors making cleaning and ventilation simple. Heat-treatment gives it incredible strength and in case of accidents, it will shatter into small, blunt pieces instead of sharp shards. It finds application in doors, near-floor windows, and large glass panels. The triple layer of glass means that it is harder to break in, so you can have peace of mind and a sound sleep both together if you have this in your bedroom window.
Clear openingThe size of the opening created when a unit is in a full open position. WeathertightHermetically-sealed to prevent entry of water and air into the structure. Toughened GlassToughened glass is two or more times stronger than annealed glass.
Anisotropy also known as stain pattern, quench marks or leopard spot is not classed as a glass defect. This ripple appearance of the glass is seen when viewed from a certain angle or time of day. There is a certain element of distortion that can affect the appearance of the glass during the ‘toughened glass’ manufacturing process. If you’re starting out with a new glaze than this is an easy way to adjust it to work perfectly for you. If you have a glaze you already like the appearance of, then it can be a much harder thing to get right. Some ingredients (e.g. tin and titanium) will tend towards clumping even though they are produced as a very fine powder.

Lastly, consider only replacing the most inefficient windows first to spread costs over time. Be aware that TGAS’s decision is legally binding, meaning you won’t be able to proceed to court action if you’re unhappy with the outcome of arbitration. If you feel these criteria haven’t been met, your installer is required to put things right. However, it is up to the company to decide whether to repair them or office glazing provide replacements, and they will generally choose the cheaper of the two options. These are the steps your double glazing installer will take when putting in your new windows.
It is (sometimes) possible to bisque fire the first glaze before applying the second. It requires another firing, but this way the first glaze is permanently fused in place and cannot crawl. This only works with glazes that have the right amount of melt at whatever bisque temperature you use.

Our team of expert glaziers have a wealth of experience when it comes to supplying and installing secondary glazing solutions, so if it’s a guiding hand you need, we can help. As we mentioned elsewhere, secondary glazing can certainly be a permanent solution, but it’s often considered first and foremost as something more temporary. Temporary secondary glazing, then, can refer to any simple, lightweight screen that can be attached or removed from an existing pane as and when required. If you live in a noisy area, you might want to keep your home quiet and cozy with a sound insulation glazing. If it is stormy or extremely cold outside, you can insulate with a low U-value thermal glazing. And if the sun is shining, you will always feel comfortable beneath our heat protection glazing.Wherever you live.

Double glazing is designed and fitted to enhance insulation, reducing noise by up to 70%. This ultraslim profile offers quality thermal performance while maintaining the traditional appearance required for heritage or listed properties. Compared to triple glazing, vacuum glazing can achieve similar insulation without the added bulk, making it ideal where frame depth is limited. Whether you own a new build, listed property or commercial property, we can fit your requirements. Anglian stands proudly as the UK’s Number 1 home improvement provider, installing bespoke double glazed windows across the country. So, with a knowledge of both what double glazing is, and where it came from, the next logical question is what does double glazing actually do?
