Instead of the traditional single wall of glass for your sash window, a double-glazed sash window comes with two walls of glass to improve the insulation and security of your property. A double-glazed sash window consists of two pieces of glass which are sealed together, but with a pocket of air between them. This pocket of air between the glass will contain a gas, usually argon gas, and its purpose is to reduce the transmission of both sound and heat/cold from outside the window to inside the building.
This makes a double-glazed window very effective at reducing outside noises, keeping your home warm in winter, as well as reducing condensation. All these benefits and more can be enjoyed when you have a double-glazed sash window installed by our experts at Trade Timber Windows. You’ll also get all the usual benefits of a regular sash window, such as good ventilation and lots of natural lighting.

In the UK, where the winter can be quite harsh, the benefits of double glazing over a single pane sash window cannot be overstated. Below are the details of some of the benefits you will definitely enjoy when you choose to take advantage of our double-glazed sash window options.
Be it on your business premises or at home, our double-glazed sash windows offer heightened insulation. Single-glazed windows can lead to your property losing as much as 50-70% of its heating, but the reinforced nature of a double-glazed sash window more efficiently locks in the heat and stops it from escaping, as well as allowing less cold to enter from outside in winter.
Our double-glazed sash windows aren’t only beneficial in winter but are also useful for hot summer days by keeping out extreme heat. This is accomplished by trapping heat from outside in between the glass panes and minimising how much of it actually gets into your property.
Double-glazed sash windows provide greater protection against drafts by offering better protection against the wind. That is, there are less nooks or small openings for the wind to slip through with a double-glazed sash.
Double-glazed sash windows can greatly minimise how much you spend on heating bills. This is possible due to the increased insulation the windows provide that ensure less of your home’s heat escapes through the window during cold seasons. This means that with double-glazed sash windows your heating system has to work less to effectively keep your interior warm and thus consume less energy. This will help you save on power bills and enhance the sustainability of your building.
Condensation on your windows actually causes more problems for your wood frames than you might think. Accumulated condensation that drips down your window can lead to mildew, mould, and wood rot in your walls and window frame. But because a double-glazed sash window significantly minimises condensation, this means you have one less thing to worry about when you have our double-glazed sash window installed.
Another beneficial feature of our double-glazed sash windows is how they block out most of the noise from outside. High-performance double-glazed sash windows can reduce noise pollution by up to 40-60%.
Our double-glazed sash windows are much tougher to break through in comparison to single-pane windows. There’s also greater privacy, as visibility into your interior is minimised. We further heighten the security of our sash windows with the help of high-quality locks that are more difficult to pry open from the outside.
