Double Glazing Hassocks

Double Glazing Hassocks West Sussex (BN6): The installation of double glazing will help to reduce noise, improve security and enhance the energy efficiency of your Hassocks home. These windows are created using a double layer of glass with a gas filled medium, normally argon, between them, thus the term 'double glazing'. Because it behaves like insulation, this inert gas provides a property with effective thermal and sound proofing qualities.

If your house in Hassocks already has older style double glazed windows fitted, and you're experiencing problems like draughts or condensation between the panes, it may be a good idea to now get new replacement double glazing to bring your building up-to-date.

Immediate improvements in the warmth and insulation from outside sounds will be experienced if your property in Hassocks currently has windows with single glazing and you switch to double glazed windows. You could also increase the value of your property (should you opt to sell), by upgrading to double glazing.

DOUBLE GLAZING WINDOW MATERIALS AND STYLES

By using a competent double glazing installer in Hassocks, you'll be able find windows that match your choice of style and enhance your house perfectly. From modern patio doors and casement windows to period sash windows for older properties, double glazing frames can be found in a variety of materials, colours and sizes.

Opening inwards or outwards, double glazing casement windows have hinges on one side. This provides plenty of airflow in the warm summer months and enables easier cleaning. They're also available in a tilt and turn arrangement which adds another degree of security where essential. Enabling them to open slightly, tilt and turn double glazed windows have an extra hinge. Enhanced security is the result, because to allow a fresh breeze to enter the room, they can be locked firmly into position when only partly open.

There are also available options for double glazing sash windows for a more traditional appearance that are suitable for a period house in Hassocks. These can be single hung, where just one sash is moveable, or double hung, where both of the sashes can be slid open. Sash windows weren't recognised for their energy efficiency in the past, but nowadays there's very little between the thermal losses of sash and casement windows, as contemporary double glazing models have lessened this problem.

Installing Cat Flaps in Double Glazing

You might have pondered installing a cat flap in your double glazing, if you have a feline companion. This can be a wonderful way to give your cat the freedom to enter and exit the house as they wish, without you having to continuously open and shut the door for them.

For example, you may want a cat flap with a microchip reader to allow only your cat to enter your house.

Once you have chosen a cat flap, you need to contact a specialist cat flap installer. They will come to your home to assess the situation and to measure the space where the cat flap will be installed. They will also be able to advise you on the best type of cat flap for your needs.

The cat flap fitter will order a new double-glazed unit with a hole cut out for the cat flap, thereby ensuring proper installation and preserving the unit's integrity.

The cat flap specialist will return to your home in Hassocks to install the new double-glazed unit once it has been delivered.
