When it comes to building houses or renovating your home in Australia, a lot of people are under the misconception that double glazed windows are only beneficial during the summer months. In actual fact, double glazed windows<\/a> are a must-have all year long. Read below about the ways in which you can keep warm while saving money during the cooler months:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

INSULATION<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Did you know it\u2019s estimated that, on average, 30% of a home\u2019s heating is lost through the windows? Double glazed windows will drastically reduce heat loss during the winter months in comparison with single pane glass. With single glazed windows, as soon as your indoor hot air hits the surface of the glass, it\u2019s drawn outside. Double glazing, however, has a vacuum of air between the two panes of glass which acts as a thick layer of insulation.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

REDUCED HEATING BILLS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A lot of us find ourselves immediately turning on the heating as soon as we get home from work in the evenings, which can result in a pretty hefty energy bill. Double glazing eliminates the need for your heating to be on as often or for as long. Some days you\u2019ll find you won\u2019t need the heating on at all and other days you might flick the heating on for half an hour or so, let the house heat up and then simply let your double glazed windows do all of the work for you by retaining the heat and giving you that cosy winter atmosphere without the giant price tag!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LESS CONDENSATION<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When the moist air inside your home hits the cool surface of a single pane window, it immediately turns to condensation. However, a double glazed window massively reduces the chances of condensation due to the fact that the vacuum of air between the two panes of glass keeps the interior pane of glass much closer to room temperature which won\u2019t result in condensation running down your windows. This is crucial as condensation can quickly turn to mould.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
