Benefits of secondary glazing: Warmer - Thermal secondary glazing can aid in reducing the carbon footprint of a building, improving the thermal properties of an existing window by up to 75%. Selectaglaze helped a number of clients achieve net zero goals, ‘Good’ and ‘Excellent’ BREEAM ratings and projects approaching EnerPHit/Passivhaus standards. Quieter – Acoustic secondary glazing can reduce the transmission of noise through a window by up to 45dB. This dramatic reduction is as a result of the fully independent nature of the bespoke unit coupled with the gap created between the two windows. Safer – Security secondary glazing can provide an invisible barrier to even the most determined intruders. Specialist blast mitigation and ballistic units can protect occupants against blasts and firearm attack. Retrofitting - The beauty of secondary glazing is that it can be fitted to virtually any property type, but has particular relevance to heritage and listed buildings (as a discreet and reversible adaptation). It is a more sustainable solution than window replacement as the embodied carbon is retained.
