Double Glazing Vs Triple Glazing

Double glazing and triple glazing come with a range of benefits for your home. However, there are many things to consider when you are choosing replacement windows. Some of the factors include:

  • Budget
  • Noise Pollution
  • Amount Of Windows
  • Aluminium Or UPVC
  • Security

Reduce Noise Pollution

Triple glazing is a popular choice for reducing external noises. That is true, however, not in some cases. In fact, if noise pollution is one of your concerns, you may want to look at special soundproofing glass.

Triple glazed windows can only prevent noise penetration when all the three glass panes are of different thickness but not equal thickness. That is why, depending on the glass thickness, a double glazed unit can outperform a tripled glazed unit on noise penetration.

The Cost Of Triple & Double Glazing

The cost of triple glazing tends to more than standard double glazing. That is due to the extra pane of glass and the work that ensures these windows are thermally efficient.

Triple glazing is also more thermally efficient than standard A-rated double glazed units. Therefore, they are an excellent choice if efficiency is one of your concerns. They may also help reduce energy bills and prevent heat loss. 

Helps to Keep Your Home More Secure

At St Helens Windows, we understand the importance of relaxing in your home. That is why our experts bead our windows internally. That helps prevent the glass from being removed from the outside. Therefore, it is a crucial factor when it comes to choosing the right window supplier. You should select a company that considers these details.
