Tauranga Double Glazing can turn your cold, damp house into a warm, dry living environment. Retrofit double glazing into your existing aluminium windows, maintain the character of your house and come home to a warmer, drier, quieter home. In a well insulated home with single glazing 50% of the heat lost is through the windows. Make your house the place to come home to!
Double glazing is a window solution featuring two glass panes separated by a layer of air or gas. It enhances energy efficiency, reduces noise, and improves comfort by minimizing heat transfer between indoor and outdoor environments.
Did you know that the heat loss through our double glazed window units can be significantly reduced compared to single glazed windows? In fact, our double glazed windows can reduce heat loss by over 54%, ensuring a more comfortable indoor environment in the winter.
While they’re known for keeping the cold at bay during winter, their impact extends beyond just insulation. In summer, these windows create a thermal barrier that keeps your home noticeably cooler by reducing the heat transmitted by the sun’s rays. In fact, you can enjoy a reduction in temperature of over 50% during the warmer months.
Double glazing also creates an effective barrier against external sounds. This feature is particularly advantageous for homes or buildings located in bustling industrial areas, near busy streets, or in noisy neighbourhoods. By significantly dampening outside noise, double glazing helps to create a quieter and more peaceful indoor environment, enhancing overall comfort and well-being for the occupants of your home or office space.
Traditional single glass pane windows in New Zealand homes are often draughty, with gaps around the sash and significant heat loss occurring through the glass panes. Winterglaze Secondary Glazing has been designed to operate on the inside of your single glazed windows to effectively reduce heat loss, by sealing off drafts and improving thermal insulation.
Winterglaze Secondary Glazing can significantly reduce the noise through windows, especially when installed with an air gap of 100mm between the existing window and the Winterglaze units.
Unique to Winterglaze, our patent pending Thermal Spacer provides a thermal break and cavity ventilation between the existing window and the Winterglaze units, significantly reducing heat loss through windows.
Drawing on years of experience in the aluminium screen and/or glazing industry, they will ensure that the right configuration of Winterglaze products are selected for your home.
When used in conjunction with adequate ventilation, Winterglaze Secondary Glazing will result in significant reduction in the level of condensation forming on windows.
Whether your windows are timber or aluminium, the Winterglaze Thermal Spacer provides a separation between the original window and the additional secondary glazing unit, as well as allowing ventilation of the cavity. This patent pending design feature reduces fogging and eliminates infill distortion – common problems with many other secondary glazing products – while still allowing easy removal for cleaning.
A sliding screen with a colour matched metal handle and integrated interlocking edge allows you to open either sliding or opening awning type windows.
