Oversized Double Glazed Units
What are Oversized Double Glazed Units?
Oversized double glazed units are large glass panels that provide exceptional thermal and acoustic insulation to a property. These units are designed to cater to the requirements of modern-day buildings with larger window openings.
The standard size for a double glazed unit is approximately 1.2 meters in height and 800 millimeters in width. However, some modern properties have large window openings that require glass panels beyond the standard size. These oversized units are designed to meet the demands of such properties.
These units are made by joining two or more glass panels with an air cavity in between. The space between the glass panels is filled with air or inert gas such as argon or xenon, which provides insulation properties. The unit’s thickness is usually between 28mm to 36mm, which ensures maximum insulation.
The oversized double glazed units come with a range of benefits. Firstly, they improve the property’s energy efficiency, reducing heat loss and lowering energy bills. The insulation properties of these units prevent the transfer of heat through the window, ensuring the property remains warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
Secondly, oversized double glazed units provide better sound insulation. The air cavity between the glass panels acts as a barrier, reducing the amount of external noise entering the property. This feature is particularly beneficial for properties located near busy roads or airports.
Thirdly, oversized double glazed units provide better security to the property. The thickness of the unit makes it harder to break, which acts as a deterrent to potential intruders.
