There is no difference between the UPVC and PVCu because the two abbreviations represent the same material being Un-plasticised Poly Vinyl Chloride. Manufacturers and Window Installers use UPVC in the marketing of windows, doors and other home improvement products but it is also commonly referred to as PVCu
No, UPVC Windows are cheaper than aluminium windows. Aluminium windows are always more expensive than UPVC (on a like for like basis) because of higher material and manufacturing costs. But, in the long term, aluminium can prove very cost-effective because it’s a more robust material than generally lasts longer than UPVC.
If you are over the age of 60, living on benefits, or otherwise in dire need of assistance, you may be able to get free double glazing. You will need to check with the benefits office.
Yes, if they are misting up or condensation is appearing between the panes. Remember, some UPVC double glazed windows are better than others, and triple glazed windows can be better still. Check warranties and guarantees. Replacing old double glazed windows with new higher performance glazing will cut heat loss through your windows, making the room more comfortable and easier to heat. It can also cut your heating bills slightly.
Less condensation – UPVC Double glazed windows reduce the amount of moisture on the inside of your windowpanes, as the airtight seal prevents the condensation from building up. Single glazed windows often allow condensation to build up which causes windowpanes to produce mold. Also there will be less external noise.
The actual definition is: The frame is made from UPVC and the glass contains two layers of glass with a small insulating gap in between set in a window to reduce heat flow in either direction.
Yes, Single glazing is not considered a suitable option for the majority of modern homes. It won’t effectively trap heat, whereas UPVC double glazing will keep your home comfortable for longer
The general consensus from manufacturers on the lifespan of UPVC double glazing is estimated to be anything between 20 and 35 years depending on the manufacturer and the fitter. Some people even suggest up to 40 years if looked after.
No, even though windowsills receive the majority of moisture from open windows, they are never replaced during the window replacement process. That is a job for a good joiner.
Yes, UPVC Double glazing is very effective in all weathers because it stops heat transferring from one side to the other. That means in winter, it stops heat escaping from the inside of the property and in hot weather it limits the amount of heat energy from the sun transferring to inside the building.
Yes, UPVC double glazing can be as effective as improving your home’s insulation and reducing external noise by up to 70%.
As mentioned previously, UPVC double glazing can improve insulation by up to 70% which means its costs less to heat your home. In 2022 we have seen huge energy cost increases, so it is vital for most people to reduce heating bills.
The clear signs that you need to replace your windows are:
As Aluminium is stronger than uPVC, this means aluminium windows have thinner frames, which some people prefer. In most cases it is an aesthetic decision rather than a performance decision.
Yes, it definitely does. Double glazing by it’s nature is a noise reducing system of insulation or soundproofing. As it comprises of two panes of glass, with an air gap in the middle, and a specialised frame.
On average, each window takes anything from 1 hour to 3 hours for a fitter to install. The actual time it takes to install the window will be different depending on the size and type of window.
