Thanks to Fineo, your home can enjoy the modern warmth and comfort of triple glazing without changing your existing timber window frames.
Transform the warmth and comfort of your home with Fineo vacuum glazing
Fineo vacuum double glazing is the thickness of single glazing but performs like triple glazing
Compared to single glazing, Fineo provides substantial improvements to energy efficiency with an impressive U-value of 0.7 W/m²k. This means valuable heat is not lost through your windows. Fineo’s ultra-thin profile (7.7mm) is perfect for retrofitting into existing sash windows – so the original historical frames are maintained.
Fineo vacuum glazing provides improved thermal and acoustic insulation
Original timber windows are a beautiful feature that many of us cherish in our homes. The greatest challenge homeowners face is improving the energy efficiency of their home whilst maintaining its historic integrity and aesthetics. This can be a difficult balance to achieve but FINEO has the latest glazing technology to make this possible.
With its exceptional thermal and acoustic insulation properties, Fineo vacuum glazing provides substantial improvements to energy efficiency and indoor comfort. Fineo comes with a market leading 20 years guarantee, though the lifespan of Fineo is much, much longer.
