Double Glazing Systems and Energy Efficiency
What is Double Glazing?
Double glazing is a glass system created by leaving a certain space between two glass layers. These two glass layers are usually separated by an aluminum spacer and the insulation level is increased by filling the space with special gases (such as argon).
Advantages of Insulating Glass System
Thermal Insulation
- Does not transmit the outside temperature to the interior.
- Keeps the temperature inside in the winter, and prevents heat from entering in the summer.
- Significantly reduces natural gas and air conditioning costs.
Sound Insulation
- Important for heavy traffic or noisy environments. makes a big difference in buildings overlooking areas.
- Sound insulation is even stronger with thick glass combinations.
Reduces Steam and Condensation Problems
- Sweating and fogging on the windows are reduced thanks to the airtight structure between the outer and inner glass.
Security
- Laminated or tempered double glass systems are more resistant to impacts.
Where is it used?
- In residences and villas
- In offices and business centers
- In institutional structures such as hotels, schools, hospitals
- Compatible with aluminum, wood or PVC joinery systems
Energy Savings and Economic Gain
Double glazing systems provide energy savings by reducing heat loss. In an average home, up to 30% reduction in heating and cooling costs can be observed annually. This allows you to make an environmentally friendly choice and save in the long run.
More Effective Performance with Low-E Glass
Low-E (low emissivity) coated glass is often used in double glazing systems to increase thermal insulation. When Low-E is added to the double glazing combination, indoor heat loss is further reduced.
Insulating glass systems are an important investment not only in terms of comfort but also sustainability and economy. Providing both heat and sound insulation, this system makes living spaces more livable.
