Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can traditional sash windows be double glazed?
The timber frames on traditional sash windows are usually too narrow to fit modern double glaze units. That is where SlimGlaze comes in. The extra skinny double glazed units are designed exclusively for sash windows and are made to fit even the narrowest timber frames.
-
Why are double glazed units better than single glazed?
Double glazed windows consist of two glass panels with an insulating gas filling the gap between them. This means that double glazed windows are much better for heat retention and energy efficiency. Double glazed windows allow for up to 77% heat retention compared to single glazed windows retention of 30%.
-
