Double Glazed Windows Add Value to Your Home
Australian Glass and Glazing uPVC windows and doors are constructed in much the same way as aluminum or wood windows, but with a chambered vinyl extrusion forming the frame around the glass, providing energy efficiency, durability and low maintenance. They also look amazing and uPVC windows in Adelaide are a great investment. To ensure quality construction and window performance, Australian Glass and Glazing windows are certified by a third-party program and independent testing laboratory according to stringent Australian industry standards (AS2047).
Energy Savings
- Australian Glass and Glazing double glazed windows and doors system will save you on energy costs.
- Its multi-chambered and double-glazed windows system perform 4.5 times better than traditional aluminum alternatives.
- uPVC windows and doors perform extremely well in comparison to alternative framing materials in energy and thermal efficiency ratings. Energy-efficient windows mean lower heating and cooling costs for a home or building owner, as well as environmental benefits. uPVC as a material is not a conductor of heat and cold, and hollow chambers within the frame provide thermal barriers that further block heat transfer.
- Our Double Glazed Windows will preserve most of the 37% of household energy that is lost through windows
Sound Reduction
Noisy traffic or neighbors are no longer a problem with Australian Glass and Glazing system sound reducing windows. Double Glazed window system is proven to reduce outside noise, certified 36-43db using appropriate glass. Our uPVC materials and multi-chamber construction feature the most advanced performance in sound insulation in the market.
Recyclable
Conserving the environment is everyone’s priority. The Australian Glass and Glazing windows are 100% recyclable. Not only can they be recycled up to seven times, but their energy efficient manufacture process uses three times less energy than aluminum windows and two times less than timber models.
Appropriate selection of the glass will achieve maximum impact and greater customer satisfaction:
- Clear and neutral tints provide higher light transmission, yet still improve energy efficiency.
- Increased insulating performance may be achieved by selecting from a variety of glass tints and pyrolytic coatings.
- High performance insulated glass provides high visibility and low solar heat gain by combining of a variety of glass colors and coatings to achieve optimum energy efficiency. Reflective coatings help create distinctive designs, while achieving superior solar control characteristics.
Since glass is 87% of a window, it must have “SUPER” insulating qualities.
Single Glass
It provides only a thin barrier to the outside and can account for considerable heat loss and gain.
Double Glass
Better insulating value since multiple layers of glass increase the window’s ability to resist heat flow.
Triple Glass
Even more energy efficient, usually with gas sealed in the frame, adds weight and expense to the window. Provides excellent sound-proof near airports and highways.
Clear Glass
Has been the traditional choice for windows but the development of better glazing has made possible the use of higher quality glass to help control heat loss and condensation.
Low Emissivity Glass (Low-E)
This special type of glass has a special coating to reduce the heat transfer back through the window. This coatings reflect 40 – 70% of the heat that is normally transmitted through clear glass, while allowing the full amount of light to pass through.
Heath-Absorbing Glass
This contains special tints that allow it to absorb as much as 45% of the incoming solar energy, reducing heat gain. Some of the absorbed heat, however, passes through the window by conduction and re-radiation.
Reflective Glass
This has been coated with a reflective film and is useful in controlling solar heat gain during the summer. It also reduces the passage of light all year long, and, like heat-absorbing glass, it reduces solar transmittance.
Australian Glass and Glazing can manufacture double glazing units that will dramatically reduce energy loss. During summer lets most visible light in so your home is bright and cheery while blocking up to 73% of harmful UV rays.
During winter lets in sun’s short light waves. After entering, these waves turn into heat generating long waves, which are reflected back into the room.
Australian Glass and Glazing Pty. Ltd. offers laminated glass which is constructed by bonding a polyvinyl butyral (PVB) plastic interlayer between two pieces of glass under heat and pressure to form a single piece of glass. Laminated glass can be made using many combinations of clear, tinted, translucent, or reflective glass. Various colors and types of inter-layers may be used as well.
Laminated glass provides significant sound control characteristics, effectively blocking out unwanted noise. In addition to sound control, laminated glass resists penetration and forced entry, while screening out the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays.
When laminated glass is broken, the glass particles adhere to the vinyl interlayer, reducing the risk of shattering glass. Laminated glass tends to stay in the opening, securing it.Leaders for Adelaide double glazed windows and doors manufacturing.
