When shopping for new windows and doors, many people face the challenge of choosing between double or triple glazing. If you’re not well-versed in window technology, it can be hard to understand the differences or whether an extra pane of glass truly offers significant advantages.
The double-glazed windows and doors deliver exceptional performance, with a U-value of 1.2W/m²K and a sound reduction of 37dB as standard, along with a centre pane U-value of 1.0W/m²K. Current building regulations require a minimum U-value of 1.6W/m²K, which means our double glazing exceeds performance expectations.
However, you might still be considering triple glazing. One reason for choosing triple glazing could be the overall SAP (Standard Assessment Procedure) calculations on a new build or when extending a property, as certain energy efficiency standards must be met. UGS Ltd. is committed to meeting these requirements with the most cost-effective solutions. Rather than offering a higher-performing triple-glazed unit with a U-value of 0.9W/m²K at a premium cost, we focus on long-term customer benefits. In many cases, the extra investment in such an upgrade might be better allocated to other aspects of the build.
