The 3 BIGGEST mistakes made while choosing Double-Glaze Windows

1. They Don’t Choose “Double Glazed as a minimum” & therefore miss out on the energy saving benefits:

  • Not Ensuring indoor comfort is a top priority for people when they are constructing a new home.
  • The kind of home windows installed has a significant effect on the home’s indoor comfort.
  • Double-glazed windows are the perfect modern alternative to traditional single-glazed windows because they provide a double layer of protection from solar heat radiation.
  • Single-glazed windows comprise a single pane of glass.
  • Double-glazed windows, on the other hand, are made up of two panes of glass separated by an air-pocket (vacuum) layer, which acts as thermal insulation.
  • In some cases, the vacuum is filled with either dehydrated air or argon (an inert gas) to help minimise heat transmission and prevent condensation problems.

2. They install windows that haven’t been tested:

  • Like anything else in life, you should “test” windows (& doors) before committing.
  • You need to determine that the windows & doors have child locks if you have children.
  • And do your windows have “trickle vents?”
  • And many homeowners fail to plan “the direction” of their window & door openings.
  • Might sound like “an obvious” thing to check, but you’d be surprised at how many people move into their home & find the windows open the wrong way!
  • A “good” window supplier/installer will of course show you the “opening procedure” of your windows & doors.

3. Not checking the “credentials” of the supplier:

  • Many people simply “assume” that the window supplier they choose is just as good as any other.
  • That’s NOT the case – like every industry, there’s good, bad & indifferent suppliers.
  • It’s vital to check the credentials of your window supplier – what’s their background & skills?
  • The windows & doors that Energy Saving windows provide are manufactured to strict quality guidelines.
  • In other words, the products are “the best of the best”.
  • Proof Energy Saving Windows have Confidence in the quality of their vast offerings on Manufacturing of Windows.
