The Biggest Step is Replacing Single Glazing with Double Glazing

Do you want to make your property more sustainable but aren’t sure where to start? Replacing single glazing with double glazing often has the greatest impact.

In some cases, it’s possible to retain the old frames and fit double glazing into them. If that’s not an option, we can also provide custom-made frames.

By taking this step, you’ll significantly improve your property’s insulation, reduce energy costs, and enhance living comfort. Double glazing helps keep heat inside and cold air out, reducing the need for heating. Additionally, it contributes to sound insulation, which is a major benefit in urban areas.

Our experts are happy to provide tailored advice. Together, we’ll explore the options that suit your situation and budget. Whether you choose HR++ glass, triple glazing, or even a combination of different types of insulation glass, we’ll ensure a solution that is not only sustainable but also aesthetically pleasing for your property.

Replacing single glazing is often the first step towards a more energy-efficient property. Combine this with other sustainability measures, such as cavity wall insulation or solar panels, and you’ll make significant progress towards reducing your carbon footprint and creating a more sustainable future.

Historic Buildings in Amsterdam and Insulating Glass: What Are the Options?
Amsterdam is rich in beautiful historic buildings that reflect the city’s history. However, if you want to make a historic building in Amsterdam more sustainable by replacing single glazing, you’ll need to consider specific regulations. In many cases, a permit is required to modify windows in a historic building, as its appearance and character must be preserved.

Vacuum Glass
Sometimes, standard double glazing isn’t allowed because it could alter the building’s appearance. Fortunately, alternatives like vacuum glass are available. This type of glass combines excellent insulating properties with minimal thickness, making it often suitable for historic frames. Vacuum glass retains the aesthetic of traditional single glazing while offering the modern benefits of thermal insulation.

Our specialists have extensive experience in making historic buildings more sustainable and can advise you on the possibilities. We’ll assist you with the permit application process and ensure that all work complies with regulations. This way, you can preserve the authentic charm of your property while enjoying improved energy efficiency and comfort.
