What is Double Glazing?

An increasing amount of property owners across New Zealand are installing double glazed windows and for good reason, because these windows have many benefits.

Double glazed windows are able to provide these great benefits because they have two panes of glass instead of just one. These two panes are separated by a thin layer of air, or argon gas.

This provides a layer of insulation in your home, helping to decrease the heat lost through the windows in your home.

Master Glaziers can install completely new Double Glazed units, or replace the glass in your original windows with double glazed panes, depending on the quality of your current frames, your budget and whether you want to keep your current style or go for a new look.

Six Benefits of Double Glazing

  • Reduces Condensation - even in well-insulated homes, condensation can build up in single glazed windows causing mould and mildew. Double glazing can significantly reduce this.

  • Reduces Noise - Would you like to make your home or office a quieter place? Double glazed windows can filter out twice as much noise as a single pane of glass. This means that double glazed windows can make an environment up to 80% quieter than single glazed windows.

  • Increased Security - Double glazed windows are actually safer than single panes of glass. The two panes of glass in double glazed windows have internal beading for added security and can be thickened or toughened which helps to prevent access.

  • Reduced Heating Bills - Double Glazed windows improve energy consumption and help to reduce the loss of heat during winter and coolness during summer while maintaining a constant temperature throughout the house

  • Boost Property Value - Installing double glazed windows increases the value of your property because they boost security and make the property more energy-efficient. They also help to protect the interior of the property as the double glazed windows help to filter out UV rays and keep the interior decorations looking nice for a longer time.

  • Easy Maintenance - Double glazed windows have multiple components, but they are easy to maintain. The two panes of glass are well-sealed to keep humidity and dust from creeping into hard to reach places. The frames around the glass naturally resist humidity, never corrode and never need to be repainted.
