Many homes in Hertfordshire with traditional sash windows face issues like drafts and poor insulation.
Our double glazing service for existing sash windows boosts energy efficiency, reduces outside noise, and eliminates cold spots, all without altering the original aesthetic of your home. Keep the character of your windows while enjoying modern comfort.
Vacuum double glazing compated to single glazing
Vacuum double glazing offers a significant upgrade over traditional single glazing. It uses advanced technology to create an insulating layer between two panes of glass, drastically reducing heat loss and noise.
In comparison, single glazing provides limited insulation, often followed by drafts and condensation, resulting in increased energy costs.
Vacuum glazing is a slimline, energy-efficient option, especially for period properties, allowing you to retain the aesthetic charm while enjoying modern performance benefits.
