U Value Windows Double Glazed Window U Value Explained
The U-value measures how effective a material is as an insulator, with lower values indicating better insulation. In the context of windows, a lower U-value means that the window will retain more heat and be more energy-efficient.
What’s My Current U-Value?
When it comes to energy efficiency, the U-value of a window is a key factor to consider.
Single glazed windows typically have a U-value of 5-6, while old double glazed windows can have a U-value of 3-4. Triple glazed windows are considered the most energy-efficient, with a U-value of 0.8-1.6.
However, at CozyGlaze, our double glazing upgrades with K-glass coating provide a U-value of 1.1, which is comparable to triple glazing. This means that our double glazing upgrades offer exceptional heat retention, reduce energy costs, and keep your home comfortable all year round.
