Triple Glazed Windows

Triple Glazed Windows from Everest

Triple glazed windows are perfect for rooms that never get the direct sunlight, are north facing, or always feel cold. They can transform a room to be cosy and warm whilst helping to reduce your energy bill and your carbon footprint.

The superior energy efficiency is why triple glazing has been a standard in many european countries for years, and the UK is now starting to recognise how they can transform a home.

The step up from double glazing costs far less than most people expect and can enhance the appeal and value of your home. You can consider fitting north or east facing windows in triple and the rest of the house in double to optimise the efficiency of your home with a mix and match approach.

Available in uPVC casement frames, uPVC flush casement, tilt and turn and bay window styles, triple glazing is suitable for most styles of property.

Why choose triple glazing?

Triple glazing is the most energy efficient window you can fit in a UK home:

• The lowest heat loss you can buy. Everest triple glazed flush casement windows are A++ rated with a U-value of 1.0 W/m²K. The U-value measures how much heat escapes through a window, and lower is better. New A+ double glazing reaches 1.3, older double glazing sits around 2.4 and single glazing can be 4.8 or worse.
• Rooms that hold their warmth. The inner pane stays closer to room temperature, so the cold zone next to the glass disappears and your heating stops working overtime to replace warmth you have already paid for.
• Lower energy bills and a smaller carbon footprint. Less heat escaping means less energy used to keep the house comfortable, all year round.
• A better EPC rating. Windows contribute to the energy certificate every home needs when it is sold or let, and buyers increasingly look at it.
• A future-proofed home. UK building standards are moving steadily towards lower U-values, and the Climate Change Committee recommends triple glazing for all new build homes, where it is expected to become the standard within the next few years.
• Far less extra cost than most people expect. Everest triple glazing costs about 10% to 20% more than the equivalent double glazed windows, making it a more affordable option than a few years ago.

As Future Homes Standards are introduced, the energy efficiency of a home and U-values for windows will become more important. At Everest, we believe that triple glazed windows will become more important and that triple glazed windows will become a requirement in all new build houses as the standards for the fabric of buildings keep increasing.

By choosing Everest triple glazed windows now, we will help you to future-proof your home with the best products for energy efficiency and the environment.

Is triple glazing right for me?

Triple glazing is a strong choice if:

• Your windows are more than 15 years old. This is the biggest step up available, and the one you will not need to revisit in ten years.
• You have rooms that never quite warm up. North and east facing rooms, rooms that get no direct sunlight, and anywhere with a permanent cold spot beside the window.
• Your home is exposed. Coastal properties, open countryside and anywhere that takes the brunt of the weather lose more heat through their windows.
• You are staying put. If this is a long term home, fitting the warmest windows available now means the decision is made once.
• You want to spend where it counts. Fitting triple on your north and east facing windows and double elsewhere gets you the efficiency where it matters most, without doing the whole house in triple.

Triple glazing is not the right option if:

• If you already have recent A rated double glazing, the efficiency gain is more modest. Comfort, not savings, becomes the main reason to upgrade.
• If noise is your main problem, triple glazing is not the fix. Reducing sound depends on varied glass thicknesses and wider gaps rather than a third pane, and secondary glazing does that job better.
