Double glazed windows offer several benefits, including improved energy efficiency, noise reduction, increased security, a reduction in condensation and increased property value.

Here are some statistics that back up the benefits of double glazing:

Energy savings: According to the Energy Saving Trust, replacing single-glazed windows with double glazing can result in energy savings of up to £135 per year on heating bills in a typical semi-detached home in the UK. The savings are even greater now as energy prices have gone up.

Noise reduction: Double glazing can reduce noise pollution by up to 60% compared to single-glazed windows, according to a study by the UK Noise Association.

Reduced carbon footprint: According to the Department of Energy and Climate Change, double glazing can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by up to 740 kg per year in a typical home in the UK.

Double glazed windows can have a positive impact on the environment, as it can help to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

Double glazed windows can improve the energy efficiency of a building by reducing heat loss through windows, which in turn can reduce the amount of energy needed to heat or cool a building.

This can help to lower greenhouse gas emissions associated with energy consumption.

Double glazed windows can be cleaned with a mixture of warm water and mild detergent, using a soft cloth or sponge.

Avoid using abrasive cleaners or materials that could scratch the glass or damage the frame.
