What is a double door and window?
Double-glazed doors and windows have two glasses that are separated by a separator and with a gap between 6 and 20 mm. The gap between the two glasses is completely sealed and filled with argon gas to create an insulating layer. Colored or low-e glass can be used in double-glazed windows and doors to improve performance. These glasses can be installed on most profiles (upvc, wooden, aluminum, etc.). It is also resistant to ultraviolet rays and largely prevents its transfer to the interior of the house.
Structurally, the gap between these glasses is the main difference between double-paned and single-paned doors and windows. This gap turns the window into an insulated window that will prevent energy wastage.
1- Reduce energy consumption
The cost of energy in Iran has increased by more than 100% since the last ten years. More than half of the energy consumed in Iranian homes is used to provide energy for heating and cooling devices, keeping cool in summer and heating the house in winter. Keeping cool in the summer and warm in the winter can be expensive, which is why double glazing is a smart solution.
According to statistics, Iranian people have the highest per capita consumption of natural gas in the world. This volume of gas reaches 60 million cubic meters daily in winter, which is mostly used for heating houses in winter, and a significant part of this energy is wasted through old doors and windows.
The good news is that installing double-glazed windows and doors is one of the most effective ways to reduce energy consumption in a building. A reduction in the amount of gas bills will be achieved in winter due to the use of elite double-glazed windows and doors. In the long term and for a period of about 5 years, the cost you pay for installing insulated windows will be compensated by reducing the gas and electricity bills. Also, in the summer, when the heat outside the buildings increases, the electricity consumption increases drastically. In recent years, Iran has faced the problem of electricity shortage in hot seasons. We have all faced power outages in our homes and factories.
Having said that, the good news for you is to use Elite aluminum multi-glazed windows. Double glazed windows and doors are popular in climates for both warm and cold climates. These windows reduce your electricity costs by more than 40% compared to single pane windows. Electricity bills in the summer will be reduced to reduce the electricity consumption of cooling devices and air conditioners.
2- Reduce the volume of input to the building
Double-glazed windows can reduce outside noise, including the sound of vehicles (cars, airplanes, etc.) and other sounds by 60% compared to single-glazed windows.
The World Health Organization has found that prolonged exposure to noise can contribute to stress, sleep problems, and endanger human health.
Double-glazed products absorb more sound energy than single-glazed products due to the distance between the glasses and the type of profile (frame) used. The addition of acoustic glass increases the efficiency of double-glazed glass in terms of sound absorption.
Double-glazed windows and doors that are designed to reduce sound can reduce the amount of external noise entering the home. With elite products, you can enjoy peace and quiet inside the house.
3- Resistance to different conditions
Double-glazed aluminum doors and windows are very strong and have a long service life. Due to the shape of the used profile, they are highly resistant to harsh weather conditions, storms, cold and heat. In different weather conditions, including very cold areas, in tropical areas, it is resistant to wind and acid and salty rains, against salty water, and in humid and acidic environments, and it does not show signs of corrosion and decay.
Its aluminum type is also resistant to fire and does not melt. The temperature at which glass begins to melt is 385°C, and aluminum profile does not melt easily.
Elite profiles do not change color or rot against the sun's rays and external factors such as weather changes (severe temperature changes) and sun rays (UV).
Double-glazed glass is more resistant to pressure and impact. This feature is important for maintaining safety against earthquakes and not shattering the glass. Of course, you can use laminated glass to increase earthquake resistance and safety.
Due to the lack of temperature transfer and the presence of moisture-absorbing materials in the gap between the glasses, the humidity of the air inside the house does not cause steam on the double-glazed glass. The absence of vapors on the glass creates the best view for you.
By using insulation around the window in the area adjacent to the building wall and using sealing strips around the frame and sealant in the window opening, we prevent water from entering the building. Also, the presence of water drainage grooves on the frame will allow the water to flow out of the window.
In these windows, the fittings are easily adjustable and surround the entire window and lock the window from four directions. In addition to high strength, these fittings are resistant to corrosion and rust.
4- Increase security
Double-glazed glass is stronger than single-glazed glass and is harder to break. This feature increases home security and reduces the possibility of theft. Also, in double-glazed window models, they are safer than old windows due to having locks installed in several places.
Anti-theft fittings can be used in multi-glazed windows. High safety fittings are mostly used in commercial buildings and villas.
5. Diversity in design and color and variety of openings
Double-glazed windows and doors are available in wide sizes and beautiful frame colors. Double-glazed glass can be used in all kinds of patterns and colors you like. They can also be produced with different window and door opening models.
Aluminum windows are beautiful and can be produced according to your facade or interior decoration. UPVC and aluminum windows can be produced with complex, curved, angular shapes, etc. and are compatible with all modern and classic architectural designs. At the same time, these windows can be made from the inside or outside view, in the form of wood design or color.
It can be produced in different colors and can be easily cleaned with detergent and water. This feature is also important from the point of view of beauty and increasing the appearance of the building. In addition, in case of customer's request, the window profile can be produced in color, and the initial painting costs are completely eliminated in these windows.
6. Multi-wall windows of affordable and economical windows
Although the cost of making a double-glazed window is slightly higher than the old single-glazed types, but due to having the highest thermal insulation coefficient, it leads to less use of heating and cooling devices in the building and leads to a reduction in the consumption costs of these types of devices. will be
With double glazing and the use of this type of insulation, the value of your property will increase. Therefore, if you intend to buy and sell property, houses with double-glazed doors and windows will be a better choice for you. Surely no one likes iron windows with unsightly glass.
Double-glazed windows have many times more useful life than normal models. But after years, if it is replaced, it can be recycled several times in the industry, and its waste does not create a harmful effect on the environment. Using restoration profiles, it is easy to restore old windows without the need for destruction.
