Double Glazing Aldridge

Double Glazing Aldridge West Midlands (WS9): Putting in double glazing will help to reduce noise levels, improve security and enhance the energy efficiency of your home in Aldridge. These windows are produced using 2 panes of glass with a gas filled layer, usually argon, between them, hence the term 'double glazing'. As it acts like an insulating material, this gas provides a home with tremendous thermal and sound proofing qualities.

If your house in Aldridge already has older double glazed windows fitted, and you are living with issues like draughts or condensation, now would be a great time to get some new replacement double glazing to get your premises back in shape.

Upgrading to double glazed units will result in an immediate improvement in the warmth and soundproofing, if your home in Aldridge currently has windows with single glazing. Upgrading to double glazing can also add extra value to your home, which of course will be a benefit if you later choose to sell up.

DOUBLE GLAZED WINDOW STYLES AND MATERIALS

By hiring a competent double glazing installer in Aldridge, you should be able to obtain double glazed windows that match your choice of style and complement your house beautifully. From traditional sash windows for older houses, to contemporary patio doors and casement windows, double glazed frames are available in an array of sizes, colours and materials.

Having hinges on one side only, double glazing casement windows can be made to open outwards or inwards depending on the design. This means that they're easily cleaned, and offer the possibility of ample airflow during the summer season. Tilt and turn casement windows are also available for use where security is an important issue. Tilt and turn double glazed windows have a supplementary hinge to be able to open slightly. This adds more security because they can be locked in position when only partially open to enable cool air to enter the room.

To suit a period property in Aldridge, there are also options for double glazing sash windows with a traditional look. There are single hung models where just one sash slides, and double hung versions, where both panes slide. In the past sash windows weren't noted for being energy efficient, but modern double glazing designs have reduced this issue and now there's pretty much nothing between sash windows and casement windows in terms of thermal losses.

Another option might be a bay window, which will look fantastic and help to bring a feeling of space to even the smallest of rooms. If your Aldridge home has a bay window already, replacing it with an equivalent double glazed frame shouldn't be too difficult. Bay windows bring lots of character and style to a property, but the main benefit is the huge amount of light that they let into a room. Another plus point is having the opportunity to put in a window seat, if a deep sill exists on the inside of the window.

Through the use of uPVC materials, today's double glazed frames can be made in pretty much any colour. It is also possible to have wooden frames for a traditional feel, or aluminium frames for a more modern effect. Aluminium frames no longer have to be a grey, dull and bland looking frame for your double glazing, and can easily be coloured to match your property.

You should be able to spot the CE mark displayed on any modern double glazing that is fitted in Aldridge homes. This mark should be plainly visible on the inside of the sealed glass unit and on the frame, and proves the standard of both the glass and the frame itself. All doors and windows manufactured in Great Britain and the EU, must be marked with the CE logo. Make certain that your Aldridge double glazing firm is using CE approved materials for manufacturing it's doors and windows, or else they may be made to less stringent standards and with cheaper components and materials. It is always best to insist on only using double glazing that comes with CE approval and is backed up with a warranty.

The Benefits of Double Glazing in Aldridge

Double glazing can improve the energy efficiency of your home by keeping the warm air inside and preventing cold from entering. Studies have shown that up to 50% of heat is lost through doors and windows. The insulating properties of double glazing can reduce this loss by up to 81%. This means that your home will stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, and you can reduce your energy bill accordingly. Additionally, double glazing can help to reduce noise pollution, as thicker windows will reduce noise from busy roads, airports, and other sources.

Another benefit of double glazing is that it can reduce your winter heating bill by up to 50%. This is due to the fact that double-glazed windows prevent heat from escaping through windows, which decreases the need for heating. This helps reduce your household's carbon footprint, which is good news for the environment. Furthermore, double-glazed windows are more attractive to buyers and increase the value of your property.

Condensation is a serious problem in a home. Excess moisture that accumulates on windows and doors can lead to mould and rot, affecting the house's value as well as the health of its occupants. When condensation gets worse, it can also damage the foundations of your home. To solve this problem, you should invest in double glazing for your home.

Another benefit of double glazing is that it is more difficult to break or force open from the outside. This increases the safety level of your home and discourages burglars from breaking in. Moreover, double-glazed windows also reduce the effects of excessive heat on furnishings. Since your furnishings are better protected, your home will have a higher selling price.

Installing Cat Flaps in Double Glazing

Have you considered putting in a cat flap in your double glazing, if you have a cat? This is a great way to let your cat come and go as they wish, without you having to keep opening and closing the door for them.

Installing a cat flap in double glazing is not a DIY task, so it's important to keep this in mind. It is a complex process that requires specialist equipment and tools. If you aren't experienced in this sort of work, it is best to hire a specialist cat flap fitter.

How to install a cat flap in double glazing:

The first step is to choose a cat flap that is the right size for your cat and has the features you need. There are a variety of cat flaps available on the market, so you can choose one that is the best fit for your needs. Some features you might want to consider include a microchip reader or a lock. For example, you may want a cat flap with a microchip reader to allow only your cat to enter your house.

Having chosen a cat flap, contact a specialist cat flap fitter. They will visit your home to assess the situation and measure the space for the cat flap installation. They can also advise you on the best type of cat flap for your needs.

To ensure the cat flap's proper installation and preserve the double glazing unit's integrity, the cat flap fitter will order a new unit with a pre-cut hole for the cat flap.

Once the new double glazing unit has been delivered, the cat flap fitter will come back to your home in Aldridge to install it. This process will involve removing the old double-glazed unit and replacing it with the new one. The cat flap fitter will then install the cat flap in the hole that has been cut out of the double-glazed unit.

Finally, the device specialist will test the device to ensure that it is working properly. They will also show you how to use the flap and how to adjust the settings. (13805 - Cat Flaps in Double Glazing)
