Keeping a home warm for the few months of the year when the temperature actually drops is a popular topic of conversation. Ask yourself how many times have you heard “Our place is freezing,” and agreed. When summer comes inevitably our comments shift to “our place is a hothouse” as the temperature rises. The good news is that freezing or hothouse, you can substantially improve your home environment with the appropriate glazing solution.
To many home owners glass is simply glass, there to offer you a clear crisp view of the outside. Today, advances in glass technology has changed that, glass no longer functions as merely the aesthetically pleasing component of a window or door.
In fact glass can be used to control the amount of sun light you let in or keep out, minimise heat gain in summer and heat lose in winter, improve security and safety, limit UV fading of interior furnishing and reduce noise levels.
