Energy Saving Benefits of Double Glazing

Grey Bifold Doors

As homeowners, we are constantly looking for ways to improve our homes, from enhancing the aesthetic appeal to making them more energy-efficient. One of the most effective ways to achieve this is by investing in new double glazing. Not only does it improve the look of your home, but it can also significantly reduce your energy bills and your carbon footprint. In this blog post, we will explore the energy-saving benefits of investing in new double glazing for your home.

What is double glazing?

Double glazing is a type of window that consists of two panes of glass separated by a layer of air or gas. The gap between the panes is usually around 16mm, which helps to reduce the amount of heat that can escape from your home. This layer also helps to reduce outside noise and improve security by making it harder for burglars to break in.

How does double glazing save energy?

Double glazing is one of the most effective ways to improve the energy efficiency of your home. It works by reducing the amount of heat that is lost through your windows, which is one of the main ways that homes lose heat. According to the Energy Saving Trust, around 25% of a home’s heat is lost through the windows. This means that by investing in new double glazing, you can significantly reduce the amount of heat that is lost, and in turn, reduce your energy bills.

Double glazing works by creating an insulating layer between the two panes of glass. This layer helps to trap heat inside your home, preventing it from escaping through the windows. This means that your home will stay warmer for longer, and you will need to use less energy to heat your home. This is especially important during the winter months when temperatures can drop significantly, and energy bills can skyrocket.

In addition to reducing heat loss, double glazing can also help to reduce the amount of solar radiation that enters your home. This means that during the summer months, your home will stay cooler, and you will need to use less energy to keep it comfortable.

What are the other benefits of double glazing?

In addition to its energy-saving benefits, double glazing offers several other advantages. For example, it can help to reduce outside noise, making your home quieter and more peaceful. This is especially important if you live in a busy area or near a main road.

Double glazing can also improve the security of your home. The two panes of glass make it much harder for burglars to break in, and the insulating layer makes it more difficult for them to gain access through the window.

Finally, double glazing can improve the aesthetic appeal of your home. There are many different styles and designs to choose from, so you can find the perfect double glazing to match your home’s style and décor.

A very professional company from contact to fitting.
A few queries before fitting were cleared up...thanks Donna. Then on fitting day Rob and and Matt were very professional and courteous. Their work was very tidy and all cleaned up at the end. I would happily recommend this company and use them again.

Had a new composite front door installed today by Matt. Matt was very friendly and polite, cleaned up after himself and made sure i was happy before he left. The customer experience from beginning to end has been great. No pushy sales team just years of experience on the job and all questioned answered and explained. You can tell this is a family run business and not a nationwide company that do a job and leave, they are people at the end of the day and interact like people. Its been a pleasure doing business with the team. Thanks everyone!

Excellent service from start to finish. Very helpful staff from helping me decide which door and the fitter Rob was brilliant.
Highly recommend DS Windows and Doors if you want quality and value for money.
Wow, where do I begin with this company from my first enquiry to my final fitting yesterday? It has been AMAZING the quote given to me was fair and honest also had no pushy sales technique which made me really want to use this company from the get go! Darren came to survey my home at the time agreed really nice friendly guy. I even had some questions about a window upstairs Unrelated to my enquiry and he happily had a look for me and gave me some advice. I was kept up to date whilst my order was processed. Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting Matt who fitted my French doors for me with care and professionalism He was super friendly and down to earth. Matt took time ensuring that everything was just right keeping me updated along the way. He cleaned up and also advised me on care going forward. I’m so happy with the end result I’ve actually already told a friend about this company. All I can say is I wish I had a found DS Window And Doors for my previous work don’t hesitate in using this company The quality of the door is top notch no damage to my wall at all when removing the old ones these guys really do care about what they do and their customers. The people I dealt with in person and via telephone/emails were amazing and so lovely that goes such a long way thank you all so much for everything! I wish you all the best going forward with your business ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ +
I wouldn’t be able to say a bad thing about my experience with DS windows even if I tried. Judith and Darren were excellent. We had our windows installed within a quick time frame and a competitive price . All updates required were sent to me via email and done on the date agreed. I would definitely use them again.

An overwhelmingly positive experience. Replaced my door with a better quality composite one. Effortless (from my point of view), quick, accurate measurements and quote, installed it in one morning and it looks fantastic (not to mention being much more secure). The installers were friendly and polite, did a high quality job and cleaned up after themselves- couldn’t ask for more.
Brilliant service from the opening visit by Darren to the superb quality of product and fitting by Rob and Matt. Highly recommended, 100% quality and customer service. Will definitely use again. Thank you all at DS Windows & Doors. Daz
