The locking systems fitted to some older doors leave a lot to be desired.

Upvc Windows Double Glazing Repairs

Just What Is Upvc Windows Double Glazing?

​These are special Upvc windows units that contain multiple glass panes in a single installation.  In this case, it is 2 panes of glass that are separated by a thin layer of still air or gas.  This is the best insulator for windows, as these are your biggest openings in the house.

Double glazed 
Upvc windows are a common, cost-effective and energy smart solution to creating a stronger heat barrier for your windows.  It also works the other way around, providing a barrier in the summer that keeps the house cooler, longer, resulting in less stress on your air conditioning unit.

The most noticeable effect of a double glazed window is when you touch your window from the inside on a hot summer day, you won’t be burned by the head transferred into the glass.  This also results in the elimination of condensation build-up when the temperature outside is drastically colder than the inside, which can lead to formation of mold or mildew where the water beads off.  This condensation can be observed as misting or the fogging-up of the inside of the window.

Finally, another reason why people choose double glazed windows over standard window panes is for the added security of their homes.  These are much harder to break and when they are broken, they create a much louder shatter that would be more detectable by anyone nearby, i.e. your neighbors.
Typical wear and tear One way you’ll notice if your double glazed windows aren’t forming a perfect seal from the outside is by noticing these instances of moisture getting through and even sound from the outside.  A perfect seal is going to give noticeable differences in sound leakage, especially hearing other people’s voices from the outside. Fitting replacement double glazed units can cure these double glazed window problems.

There are many reasons for a window’s seal to fail and deteriorate.  The biggest cause is just by the outside environment taking its toll over time.  The sun and wind are a constant force on sealed units of any kind.  The temperature alone is constantly making the frames expand and contract, moving the air between the panes of glass.  After some years of this process repeating many hundreds of times, eventually something has to give, nothing lasts forever, and you’ll start to see condensation getting in between there and forming a foggy or misting, as commonly referred to in the industry.

Another possible reason for premature fractures in the seal may be due to defect in the manufacturing of the double glazing process or how the window was fitted into place when they were installed in your home. Thankfully, there are
Upvc Windows Double Glazing Repair companies out there that can right these wrongs, without having to start all over again and pay for new windows to be installed.

Chances are, though, when you do notice that you might need to repair your double glazed windows, that your warranty is conveniently just over expiration. So, you have no choice, but to either buy them all over again or hire someone to repair the ones that you noticed misting and getting the additional peace of mind of inspection for all the remaining ones in your house.  The savings could be more than just a few dollars, once again, you may be preventing thousands more in unnoticed growth damage from moisture finding its way through corners and crevices.

If your double glazed windows are actually filled with a gas, rather than still air, you’ll want to have them inspected by a professional double glazed window repairman on a yearly basis.

Ensure you have the best protection The framing material on your window is very important for the longevity of your double glaze.  Standard aluminium frames are notorious thermal bandits, in that they are great conductors of heat, which is bad for your double glazed windows, if you have them.

​Upvc windows double glazed are ideal for you to get the most bang for your buck.  The efficiency and longevity of the polyurethane materials will keep repairs and heat bills down.  Pair this with a low-e glass type that is designed to save even more on heating costs or the thicker laminated windows that act as an acoustic insulator, whichever you will benefit from the most.

Another viable alternative option homeowners have for double glazing windows or for a whole house of upvc windows and doors is through a process called secondary glazing.  This type of glazing goes over your existing windows.  This is a more cost-effective measure that can produce cost-saving energy benefits close to traditional double glazing.  A professional will fit an extra glazed window on the inside, against your original window.  This is especially useful if you would prefer to keep your original look of your windows, rather than going out and getting completely new ones with all new window frames as well. Just a thought if you don't want complete new UPVC sash windows windows that may one day require replacement double glazed units. This system can also be used in place of new UPVC bay window, UPVC porch, UPVC front doors, UPVC patio doors, UPVC french doors.
