Additional Benefits of Triple-Glazed Windows
Contrary to its name, triple glazed windows do not really have three coats of glaze on them. Usually, triple glazed windows are made of three different layers of glass and film. These layers come in various combinations. One example is the window made of three layers of glass. Usually, these layers are separated with spacers. Another type is the one made out of a layer of film sandwiched between two layers of glass. This film is usually suspended between the glass layers and heated to make it smaller and tighter. During the heating process, it also becomes clearer, which makes it possible to see through these windows. There is also a type of triple glazed window that has a U-channel inside, along the inboard.
So what exactly are triple-glazed windows for? These windows are installed in homes that require better insulation. These insulating properties are improved by the additional layers and the air that is found in between these layers. The film that is sometimes used in these windows also has low emissivity, which helps with the insulation as well. Triple-glazed windows are great for homes in areas that experience extreme weather.
Of course, aside from the insulation, there are also a lot of additional benefits to these triple-glazed windows.
Triple-glazed windows are well-sealed, preventing air and drafts from seeping through.
A common problem of windows, especially when they get old, is that the edges develop tiny openings where air from the outside manages to leak through. This is not an issue with triple-glazed windows. Aside from having additional layers that can keep the air out, the edges of the windows are also sealed well. This prevents any air from getting through the window, ensuring that the home is protected from unwanted drafts.
The interior of these windows are usually clear and dry because the layers prevent condensation from forming.
Because of a temperature difference between the interior of the home and its exterior, condensation usually forms on the windows. This buildup of condensation can lead to moisture or even to water droplets that can cause marks on the windows and can damage the frames as well. With the multiple layers of these windows, the temperature change is a gradual transition from one frame to another. This means that there is not enough temperature difference among adjacent frames to cause condensation. Without this condensation, the windows are always clear and dry. The frames are better preserved as well.
The thick window panes can reduce the amount of noise coming into the home.
The triple-glazed windows can also function as soundproofing windows. Usually, noise from outside enters the home through windows. This is because windows are made out of a thin membrane that is not enough to keep the noise from getting in. Because triple-glazed layers are extremely thick, it manages to filter out a certain amount of the noise. This allows home owners to enjoy the peace and calm of a quiet home, even when it is noisy outside. This is great for windows, home offices, and other rooms in the home that have to be quiet at all times.
