An Overview: What is Secondary Glazing?

Fitting secondary glazing systems basically involves the installation of supplementary glazing, (known as secondary glazing) on the inner side of an original window frame, that has been single or double glazed. So what are the advantages of our affordable secondary glazing systems?

For a start, secondary glazing systems are relatively easier and more affordable/cost-effective to install than replacing your existing windows, and you can do it on your own at a low-cost budget. Diy secondary glazing is very popular for owners of listed buildings and houses in conservation areas, where restrictions and local planning laws may prohibit the alteration of the appearance of the original windows.We also provide a range of secondary glazing fixings.

We at Omega Build are leading UK secondary glazing suppliers, so please get in touch or view our secondary glazing solutions online today, and we can give you a guide price, or more accurate quote based on the details you have to hand. We supply to home and trade users.

What Are The Advantages of Secondary Glazing?


 

1. Noise Reduction and Sound Insulation

Many people use secondary glazing as an effective acoustic solution to reduce noise. If you are living on a busy road or under a flight path this can be a huge issue. Even background noise such as general traffic, nearby pubs, and restaurants, emergency vehicles, etc. can be enough to create a disturbance. Installing a unit to your windows can be really beneficial for sound insulation and effective in the reduction of any noise pollution. 

In order to get the maximum benefit of up to 44 dB reduction in noise levels, we recommend the following:

1. Use a different thickness of glass in your secondary glazing to your primary glazing.

2. Use a specialist acoustic glass such as 6.4mm stadip silence glass

3. Fit it 150-200mm away from your primary glazing

Some companies suggest that double glazing alone can help with acoustic insulation but it is not effective. This is because the panels of glass are only 15-20mm apart. Find out more about the technical aspects of noise level reduction.
