Double or triple glazing?

With us, standard double is 3 mm + 3 mm; triple is 3 mm + 3 mm + 3 mm. Triple adds a layer of insulation — useful for winter comfort.

Double 6 mm + 4 mm

For noise, asymmetry matters more than the number of panes. A 6 mm + 4 mm double cuts sound clearly better than a standard double — and often better than a triple. We prioritize it when the street or traffic is the issue.

Thermal vs acoustic

On heat, 6 mm + 4 mm sits between standard double and triple. If noise is the main issue, we do not automatically “upgrade” to triple: asymmetry often does the job better.

Solarban film (solar control)

Glass with Solarban film reflects more of the sun’s rays: the house overheats less on very sunny days. In return, it also lets in a bit less useful solar heat in winter. Prefer it on highly exposed façades; be more cautious if you count on the sun to warm the room.

Grilles and ENERGY STAR®

With a grille in double glass, the window generally is no longer ENERGY STAR®. In triple with a grille, you can often stay ENERGY STAR®, depending on the configuration. We confirm it on the quote.
