uPVC Double Glazed Windows & Doors Geelong
Features and Benefits of UPVC in Geelong
Whilst old-style wooden windows can look great and add character to a property, they do have plenty of failings. They need a lot of maintenance, requiring regular painting or staining to keep them looking good and in the best condition. If you fail to do that properly, the wood will swell as it absorbs moisture and shrink when it dries out, resulting in gaps around the frame, cracking and peeling paint and eventually rot that will destroy the window.
The modern solution is to install UPVC windows in Geelong that are lightweight, available in a range of colours and require virtually no maintenance. They’re relatively inexpensive, last a very long time and are therefore a much more efficient alternative to wood.
Replacing your out-dated windows with new UPVC versions has numerous benefits that will prove cost-effective in the long term. They:
- improve the appearance of your property with clean and fresh-looking frames that will also add to its value
- keep your property cool in summer and warm in winter, making you more comfortable and reducing energy costs
- eliminate the draughts that are caused by poorly fitting or failing frames
- require no maintenance, other than the occasional wipe down with a damp cloth to remove dirt.
Every PVC window for Geelong is available in a variety of styles so you can choose the one you prefer or that best suits your property:
- casement windows are the most common style, opening outwards and generally with side hinges although top or bottom hinged varieties are also possible
- sash windows are particularly suitable for older properties and feature top and bottom sections that slide down or up, counter-balanced by weights or pre-tensioned springs
- tilt and turn windows are relatively modern and have two opening methods — regular casement style with side hinges or tilting back into the room
- French windows are effectively pairs of casement windows and can be available in larger sizes as French doors.
- UV stable tropical mix uPVC windows specifically for Australian conditions
How Double Glazing your Windows in Geelong can help
Windows are necessary to let natural light into a building and, when opened in summer, to allow in cooling breezes. But they can also be a source of heat loss and solar gain so you really need double glazed windows Geelong, which provides a number of benefits:
- enhanced appearance with bright white UPVC frames or different colours that blend in with your property; choose the style you want for a whole new look
- no more draughty or sticking windows caused by badly fitting frames that have warped or rotted due to age
- maintenance-free frames with no need for painting, staining or waterproofing
- reduced solar gain leads to greater comfort and lower air conditioning costs
- less heat loss in winter so that heating needs are reduced
- more environmentally friendly due to reduced emissions from air conditioning and heating
- improved comfort generally due to a more stable temperature throughout the year
- better security since double glazing with safety glass is more difficult to break and so deters intruders as well as providing protection against storm damage and the danger of flying glass
- a quieter environment since double-glazed windows can reduce external noise significantly due to the gas layer between the glass panes disrupting vibrations; this is in contrast to single glazing where the glass pane vibrates under pressure.
Cost-effective Double Glazed Window Solutions in Geelong
Wood framed windows with single glazing can, if not maintained properly and regularly, have a relatively short life. If the windows are difficult to open or close, if draughts are coming through the frames, or if your property is noisy, uncomfortably warm or cold and your energy bills are getting out of hand, it’s time to upgrade.
Installing our made-to-measure UPVC double glazed windows will give a new appearance to your property as well as significantly improving your comfort and security. Get in touch with us for double glazed windows in Geelong
Your Double-Glazed Windows in Geelong Will Pay for Themselves
There’s no specific requirement for your new windows to be useful, either; from the moment they’re installed, your Geelong windows and doors are saving you money. The window double glazing on our glass panels functions as an extremely efficient two-way insulation: It keeps heat out during warmer weather and keeps heat in during colder weather. Our glass panels have a remarkably low U-value, which means that they transfer heat extremely slowly, whether that’s in or out. In other words, with our energy efficiency windows you need less help from your electrical appliances to heat or cool your home.
In the summer, your upvc double glazed windows prevent heat from trickling in, which makes your air conditioning more effective. Meanwhile, in the winter, heat doesn’t transfer through the glass and outdoors nearly as fast, which reduces the energy required from your heating. Our panels also don’t get quite as cold as traditional glass during cold weather, which means that air doesn’t lose heat as it travels past the panels. In other words, whatever weather you’re in, your Geelong double-glazed windows are saving you money on your electrical bills, indefinitely.
Double Glazing Existing Windows in Geelong? No Problem!
