Replacing Your Old Inefficient Glass
Many older double-glazed units do not contain low-emissivity (low-e) glass or inert gases and are therefore not energy efficient. By replacing your existing window glass with low-e glazing, you can improve the energy efficiency of your home, reduce your monthly heating bills and help with climate change.
Our revolutionary Low E Glass Range is designed to prevent heat loss through your windows with an invisible coating that reflects radiated heat back into your home. Low-E-Plus1 can be retrofitted into any type of window frame, uPVC, timber or aluminium.
Our Low E Plus 2 glass, created exclusively for uPVC frames, is the only retrofit double-glazing to boast 2 heat retaining coatings, which dramatically reduces the heat transfer and reflects interior heat back into the home and keeps cold out. With a U-value as low as 0.9*, Low E glazing can achieve efficiencies that are similar to triple glazing.
By upgrading your old inefficient glazing with Low E glazing, you can reduce your heating bills and vastly improve the warmth and comfort of your home.
*U-values are determined by the width of the cavity.
How to quickly identify if your glass is inefficient
Old, cold double glazed units that DO NOT have a heat-retaining coating or argon gas between the panes, is very inefficient when it comes to heat retention. Therefore, in order to identify the glass is inefficient check for a silver spacer bar.
Original Low-E-Plus Glass
One Low-E coating. U-values from 1.0 W/m2.K.
Suitable retrofitting into for existing and new uPVC, Timber and Aluminium window frames.
New Low-E-Plus 2 Glass
Two Low-E coatings. U-values from 0.9 W/m2K.
Suitable retrofitting into for existing uPVC window frames only.
