The benefits of triple glazing in our retirement properties for sale
Our retirement properties for sale at Burnham Waters in Essex all come with the added benefit of triple glazing, included as standard. In this week’s blog, we thought we’d delve into the benefits of what our triple glazing offers Burnham Waters residents.
Optimal luxury senior living
Our triple glazed windows offer a wealth of advantages to those living within our retirement village. These include an enhanced level of security, aid in further sound proofing, plus our it can help to retain the heat indoors, making it more cost-effective for residents overall!
At Burnham Waters, we want those who choose us to feel as safe and comfortable as possible within our community. We believe that investing in triple glazing across our luxury retirement community helps to instil that ethos!
What is triple glazing?
Triple glazing is simply a glass panelled structure made up of three panes of glass. Usually, one or two panes are used to create standard glass panelling; three panes are considered the best options for windows and doors when it comes to security, energy efficiency and sound proofing. Between each pane of glass is a cavity that is filled with inert gas, such as argon, xenon or krypton.
Enhanced security
At Burnham Waters, we’ve taken a lot of care to ensure that in our retirement properties for sale, our residents feel safe and secure within our community. Our security office is a comforting presence on-site and our security team are available 24/7. State-of-the-art CCTV has been fitted throughout the village and video doorbells will be located on the front of each property. Each bungalow is fitted with an alert system to further maintain safety and awareness.
Our triple glazing is the perfect addition to our full proof security options, working to further enhance resident safety and security by strengthening the entire surface area of the thick transparent property panels. This makes it incredibly difficult to break the glass to gain access to a property.
Thermal efficiency
Triple glazing is the best glazing for thermal efficiency. The extra glass layer automatically has a major impact on insulation of your property, stopping heat escaping thinner surface areas or gaps. Triple glazed frames include thermal inserts between the smaller chambers between panels, to reduce heat loss. The gases found between the panes of glass also increase a window’s thermal performance because of its low conductivity! These elements combined also ensure no cold spots, so no unwanted condensation can cultivate.
Additionally, there is a spacer bar between each pane of glass which is made from thermally optimised insulating material, which prevents heat escaping round the edge of the sealed structure. Triple glazing is highly effective come rain or shine, making it an ideal solution for enhanced insulation and helping to reduce energy bills at our retirement properties for sale in Essex.
Noise-reducing
Triple glazing is often referred to as ‘noise-reducing glazing.’ This is because the thickness of the glass significantly reduces noise from the outside world and is a guaranteed solution for those wanting a quieter lifestyle.
Triple glazing ensures that sound has a thicker surface area to travel through, which weakens the strength of each sound wave. So, by the time the sound does get though, if at all, it’s extremely quiet and much less noticeable! When compared to even double glazing, the difference is quite astounding.
