Why invest in double glazed uPVC windows?
The functions of a window are obvious and basic, but there is more to choosing a window than meets the eye. A well designed window isolates heat and noise but not the view.
Thermal insulation
The air pockets within the upvc frame and between the two panes of glass reflect the warm or cold air from the interior heating/cooling systems. The heat/cold is trapped inside and does not escape as with conventional windows. The uPVC frames are poor conductors of heat or cold and thus will increase thermal efficiency over aluminium frames.
Environmental efficiency
Our society is becoming more aware of the damaging effects it's caused to our environment. We are encouraged to construct buildings with more efficient energy ratings. By choosing to invest in our double glazed uPVC window system you can be assured that you are not only benefitting you and your family now but helping to preserve our environment for generations to come.
Long lasting and easy maintenance
The uPVC frames are a high impact resistant, UV tolerant and white colour fast material. When glazed with laminated glass, UV transmission is reduced by up to 99%. They are fusion welded and the design ensures increased rigidity and long life. Unlike aluminium or timber frames, they do not swell, shrink, rust, flake, peel or fade. They are easy to clean, requiring only the occasional wipe down with a wet cloth and a little detergent.
Security
The uPVC frames are reinforced with galvanised steel, making them difficult to cut or bend. Multiple locking points can be added, and when used in conjunction with toughened safety or laminated glass would make it virtually impossible for intruders to penetrate.
Cost benefits
There are multiple benefits to installing double glazed uPVC windows. Essentially savings can be made with lower fuel bills by reducing heating and cooling costs due to their thermal insulation properties. The UV resistant property can virtually eliminate the fading of expensive curtains, furniture or floor coverings.

Acoustic insulation
Depending on the location, you can reduce outside noise by selecting from a range of scientifically formulated glass treatments. The double glass also thickens the barrier between the living environment and the outside world and the air space between the panes of glass create an added acoustic barrier. The system works together to achieve a dramatic reduction in noise.
Fire resistance
Our uPVC window frames are self-extinguishing thus they will not sustain flames once the fire source is removed. The frames have no paint or varnish which burn at relatively low temperatures and do not conduct heat as aluminium frames. This together with the double glazed glass increases the heat barrier which can provide extra time to fight or escape a fire.
