Double-glazing first became popular in the 1970s. They became so popular as they were much better at keeping the heat in compared to single-glazed windows.
The double-glazing that we have today is much better than early versions, and all the double glazed windows we install have A-Rated energy ratings. But now there’s such thing as triple-glazing which boast even higher energy ratings than standard double-glazed windows.
But what are the benefits of getting triple glazing compared to standard double glazing? We’re here to help you understand the differences when it comes to buying new windows for your home.
- Better Insulation – Having triple glazing is much better than standard double-glazing at keeping the heat in and the cold out. This makes such a big difference, especially in the cold winter months.
- Superior Energy Efficiency – Triple glazed windows offer much better energy efficiency compared to double glazed windows. On average, triple glazed windows offer up to 35% higher energy efficiency compared to standard double glazing. In the long run this can save a fortune on heating and energy bills!
- Enjoy a Quieter Home – With an extra pane of glass insulating you from the outside world, this means that less noise can get in. Triple glazed windows can make your home 20% quieter than double glazing. If you live on a busy road, this can make a big difference to your living environment.
