The time may have come to look at replacing your windows, if you have already got older style double glazed windows in your property in Rishton but have been experiencing issues, such as draughts or condensation between the panels.

Double Glazing Rishton Lancashire (BB1)

Condensation is caused by a hole developing in the sealed unit and allowing heated air from inside the property to enter the gap between the window panes. As the warm air makes contact with the colder external glass pane, moisture forms, with condensation being the result. If this is happening frequently the time may have come to change your existing windows.

If your Rishton property currently has single glazing, the switch to double glazed units will see immediate improvements in the warmth and insulation from outside noises. Upgrading to double glazing could also add extra value to your home, which will obviously be beneficial if you eventually opt to sell up and move.

Opening outwards or inwards, double glazing casement windows are hinged on one side only. This means that they are easier to clean, and can provide a good amount of airflow during the summer season. If security is vital to you, double glazed casement windows also come in a tilt and turn design. Tilt and turn windows have an extra hinge to be able to open a small amount. This adds extra security as they can be locked in position when only partly open to permit cool air to flow into the room.

There are also options available for double glazing sash windows for a more traditional appearance to complement a period home in Rishton. These can be single hung, where only one pane moves, or double hung, where both of the sashes can be slid open. Sash windows were not recognised for their energy efficiency in the past, but today there's very little between the thermal loss of sash and casement windows, as modern double glazed models have alleviated this issue.

Helping to bring a sense of space to a room, bay windows look wonderful. If your home in Rishton has already got bay windows, you could replace them with double glazed equivalents. The quantity of light that it allows into a room, is the main advantage of a bay window, and it is the perfect place to fit a window seat if you have a deep sill on the inside.

By using uPVC materials, modern double glazing frames can be made in pretty much any colour. You could also have timber frames for a classic feel, or aluminium frames for a somewhat more modern look. Easily coloured to blend in with your house, aluminium frames no longer have to be a dull, grey and bland like they used to be.

All double glazed windows fitted today must come with a CE approval mark. This is proof of the standard of the glass and of the frame and the mark should be plainly visible on the inside of the sealed glass panel and on the frame. All windows and doors manufactured in Britain and within Europe, must be marked with the CE logo. If your double glazing firm in Rishton doesn't use CE approved materials they could be manufactured using less rigorous production standards and cheaper materials. Even though these lower quality frames may be okay in some situations, you should demand guaranteed products that have CE approval for your house in Rishton.

Installing Cat Flaps in Double Glazing

In case you have a cat, you might have considered putting in a cat flap in your double glazing. This is a superb way to allow your cat to come and go as they wish, without you having to continuously open and shut the door for them.

However, it's important to be aware that installing a cat flap in double glazing isn't a do-it-yourself task. This complex process cannot be completed without specialist tools and equipment. Unless you are experienced in this kind 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 the right cat flap. There are a variety of cat flaps available on the market, so it is important to choose one that is the right size for your cat and that has the features that you need. For example, you may want a cat flap with a lock or a microchip reader.

Once you've chosen a cat flap, you need to contact a professional cat flap fitter. 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 to ensure correct installation and maintain the unit's integrity.

The cat flap fitter will return to your home in Rishton to install the new double glazing unit once it has been delivered. This involves removing the old double glazing unit and installing the new one. The cat flap fitter then installs the cat flap in the hole cut into the double glazing unit, ensuring that the integrity of the unit is not compromised and that the cat flap is installed correctly.

The flap specialist will test the cat flap to ensure its proper functioning and demonstrate its usage and settings. (13805 - Cat Flaps in Double Glazing)
