Double Glazing Melbourne
Home owners in Melbourne are discovering the environmental and cost-saving benefits of retrofitting double glazed windows and doors.
Retrofit Double Glaze has been helping Melbourne homes improve their energy efficiency, increase in-home comfort and mitigate climate change since 2011, through affordable and hassle free double glazing solutions.
What are Double Glazed Windows?
Double glazed windows or doors consist of two panes of glass that are separated by an air, gas or vacuum gap of between 0.3mm to 20mm. This design makes double glazed windows highly efficient and assists to reduce heat transfer and minimise temperate fluctuations within the home.
What is Retrofit Double Glazing?
The term ‘retrofitting’ refers to the process of updating existing components within a home with the purpose of improving performance, functionality or efficiency.
Window or door retrofitting involves removing single-glazed panes and replacing them with double-glazed units while maintaining the original window or door frames.
Benefits of Double Glazing Windows and Doors
Double glazing windows and doors in Melbourne is becoming increasingly popular due to several key benefits for homeowners:
- Improved energy efficiency: double glazing reduces heat loss during the colder winter months and minimises heat gain during summer. Retrofit double glazed windows can improve insulation by up to 93% which can also help to decrease energy bills and lessen the impact on our environment.
- Noise reduction: double-glazed windows can reduce noise by up to 70% which can be especially beneficial if you live in a busy area of Melbourne such as a train or tram line, or busy road.
- Enhanced security & safety: compared to single glazed windows, double glazed windows are harder to break and we offer safety glass as standard for additional security and peace of mind.,
- Reduction in condensation: the insulating gap between the two double-glazed window panes effectively eliminates condensation and mould forming on the window frame. This can reduce water damage and will extend the life of your windows and frames.
- Environmental sustainability: reducing reliance on heating and cooling systems can lower energy consumption and minimise the carbon footprint of your home.
- Add value to your home: by retrofitting double-glazed windows and doors you can add value to your property and increase its energy efficiency and security.
