Transform the warmth and comfort of your home while maintaining the original window frames

MODERN WARMTH
Replace single glazing with Fineo vacuum glazing for the warmth of triple glazing
Thermal insulation is measured by U-values. The lower the U-value the better the insulation. Fineo vacuum glazing has a U-value better than a 36mm triple glazed unit and is 8 times better than single glazing. Fineo has a market leading 20 year warranty with a lifespan of 60+ years.
Repair Cold & Draughty Sash Windows
The Problem: Many homeowners of period properties or listed buildings love their timber sash windows but wish that they were warmer. Often, old single glazing combined with broken seals and gaps create a very cold home.
The Solution: Fineo vacuum glazing can be easily retrofitted into the existing sash window frames. This will provide the warmth of triple glazing. Our expert installers can then help restore and repair the old windows.
Reduce Unwanted External Noise
The Problem: Single glazing not only provides poor thermal insulation –but also poor sound insulation. If your home is in a built up area, your old sash windows will struggle to keep out the street noise.
The Solution: Fineo vacuum glazing can make your home quieter and more comfortable. It reduces external noise by 34% (6dB) when compared to single glazing. That is similar to triple glazing.
Help Stop Internal Condensation
The Problem: Internal condensation is familiar to many homes with old sash windows. As temperatures drops in the colder months moisture builds on the inside of the glass. This can be unhealthy, causing mould.
The Solution: Fineo vacuum glazing will make a dramatic difference when it comes to removing internal condensation. This is thanks to considerably raising the temperature of the internal pane of glass. Note: good ventilation is also required
