Double glazing – frame, retrofit & price

Laura — Tue, 07 Apr 2020 11:00:52 +0000

Double glazing – Double glazing is a construction element consisting of two panes of glass, which is installed in a plastic or wooden frame. The cavity that is created between two panes of glass serves as thermal insulation and thus ensures that energy is saved. Visit Lukinski. This cavity is usually filled with an inert gas to prevent the pane from fogging up from the inside. Argon is usually used for this purpose. Another advantage is that double glazing has a sound-absorbing effect. Not only for new buildings but also for existing window systems in good condition, it is worthwhile to retrofit double or even triple glazing. In rare cases, there are also triple glazing window systems that have an even more heat-insulating and sound-insulating effect. If multiple glazed windows should ever mist up from the inside, it is usually a small crack in the pane or on the frame of the window through which the moisture penetrates. The price for a window with double glazing starts at 80€.

Windows – Cost, Double Glazing & Replacement

Laura — Tue, 22 Oct 2019 11:00:23 +0000

Windows – On the one hand, windows serve the visual appearance of a house, but on the other hand they also play an important role in terms of energy consumption. They are available in wood or plastic, depending on what suits your project better. You can buy windows cheaply in any DIY store – at Obi, Hornbach or Bauhaus, for example. Some also drive to a neighboring country such as Poland to buy there cheaper windows. Whether this makes sense, we can not judge, but because of the lack of transparency we can not recommend this. Modern windows have instead of simple – meanwhile a double glazing. Already damaged or old windows, can usually be replaced without problems. Windows are available in many different variations and for every need there is the right window – no matter if sound insulation, heat insulation or visual protection. Tips for landlords and tenants: landlord tips. There is a special regulation for owner-occupied apartments, where the regulations of the owners’ association must be observed.
