How Does Double Glazed Stacking Doors And Casement Double Glazed Windows Work?

The concept of double glazing is fairly new in Australia as compared to Europe, where it was first used and the US, the biggest user of this concept. Because of this, quite a number of people have no idea till now of what is actually included in this concept. Therefore, I am here with a brief post, attempting to describe some very important aspects of this concept.

What is double glazing?

This is actually a way of making our doors and windows more energy efficient and excellent noise suppressors. In Double Glazed Stacking Doors and casement double glazed windows, the installation experts from ECOVUE fit an IGU or the Insulated Glass Unit. An IGU is made up multiple glass panes that are fitted into the doors and the windows. In most cases, there are two glass panes used, but these days, many people put before us, this request of using three layers of glass. The goal is to suppress more noise and making the home more energy efficient.

Now, the notable fact about this concept is that all these panes are kept separated from each other with the help of a still layer of air or gas. In the next segment, we will review the benefits and how this space between these panes is useful for us.

Benefits of double glazed stacking doors and casement double glazed windows

I’ll not go to the depth of the list of the benefits as the first benefit is enough to mark this concept as a very useful one. This benefit is being highly energy efficient. Another benefit is that this version of doors and windows acts as a really impressive noise suppressor.

The gap between these layers and its content act as an added layer of insulation. The magnified thermal resistance reduces the amount of heat that escapes from the house in winters.

In summers, it acts completely adversely and stops unwanted heat from coming to the home and stops you from using electrical appliances both in summers as well as winters.
