The year-round benefits of double glazing

Keep your home at the perfect temperature, whatever the weather.

Rising temperatures throughout the summer months can lead to uncomfortable, restless nights. But with modern double glazing, you can rest easy knowing that your home will stay cooler when the temperature rises. The same insulating properties that prevent heat loss and reduce noise also prevent our homes from overheating during hot weather, ensuring a comfortable living environment all year round. 

Formed of two layers of glass with a layer of argon gas in between, double glazing works by stopping heat transfer between the panes. In the winter, warm air stays trapped inside the home, and in hot weather, it reduces the heat coming in.

If your double glazing is 20+ years old, now may be the ideal time to consider installing new windows. Not only will this enhance your home’s comfort, but it could lead to significant savings on your energy bills. Our Sutton Veny Thermaglaze showroom, covering Wiltshire, Dorset, and Somerset, is ideal for inspiration. You can view all our A+-rated windows, doors, and conservatories without pressure. 

A modern touch. Many homeowners only consider the practicalities of double-glazing for winter, but you can reap its rewards all year round. Its insulating properties keep a home cosy but also give it a clean, modern finish that is a worthwhile long-term investment.

Out with the old, in with the new.  Old single-pane windows, especially those with wooden frames, are prone to warping and have extremely poor insulation. They can be draughty and lack weather-proofing, making them outdated and impractical. By combining double-glazing with smart uPVC frames or stylish aluminium frames, you’re not just maximising thermal efficiency, you’re also contributing to a more environmentally friendly home. With advanced glazing trends, we can produce glass that prevents UV light from fading carpets and soft furnishings, reducing your carbon footprint.

Keep your cool. Double or triple glazing helps keep our homes at a steady temperature all year round, but if you have many south-facing windows, you could also consider adding some beautiful shutters or blinds to block the light on long summer days.
