Yes, installing quality double glazing can increase your home’s resale value. Energy efficient windows and doors are highly desirable features for Perth buyers, offering thermal comfort, noise reduction, and lower running costs. The higher resale value, combined with energy savings, makes double glazing an excellent return on investment.

Regular cleaning and occasional lubrication of moving parts will ensure optimal performance for decades.

Double glazing consists of two panes of glass separated by an air or gas-filled space, creating an insulating barrier. This design significantly reduces heat transfer and noise compared to single-pane windows. At Penot Double Glazing, our double glazed units feature thermally broken aluminium frames for maximum energy efficiency.

Triple glazing features three panes of glass with two insulating spaces between them. This provides even greater thermal efficiency and noise reduction than double glazing. Triple glazed windows are ideal for homes in particularly noisy areas or where maximum energy efficiency is desired.

For most Perth homes, double glazing with thermally broken aluminium frames provides excellent thermal comfort and energy efficiency. Triple glazing is recommended if you live near major roads, airports, or industrial areas where noise reduction is a priority, or if you want the absolute best thermal performance. Our local team can assess your specific situation and recommend the best solution.

Both double and triple glazing offer substantial energy savings compared to single-pane windows. Triple glazing provides approximately 20-30% better thermal efficiency than double glazing. However, the additional cost of triple glazing means double glazing often offers better value for Perth’s climate. Our team can help you calculate potential cost savings for your home.

Yes, many homeowners choose triple glazing for bedrooms or rooms facing noisy streets, while using double glazing elsewhere. This approach balances cost with performance where it matters most. Our team can help design a custom solution that maximises your investment.

Our thermally broken aluminium frames are designed to minimize noise transmission, creating a peaceful indoor environment even in busy Perth locations. Learn more about how our windows provide superior noise reduction.

Yes, double glazed windows with thermally broken aluminium frames dramatically reduce heat gain during Perth’s hot summers. The insulating glass units block solar heat while the thermal break in the aluminium frames prevents heat transfer, keeping your home naturally cooler and reducing air conditioning costs. Discover more about the thermal comfort benefits.

Thermally broken aluminium frames and insulated glass units eliminate cold spots near windows and reduce drafts.

Condensation occurs when warm, moist air meets cold surfaces. Double glazing keeps the interior glass pane warmer, reducing condensation dramatically. The thermally broken aluminium frames also stay warmer, preventing moisture buildup on frames. This condensation prevention improves comfort and reduces the risk of mold and mildew.

Thermally broken aluminium frames feature an insulating barrier (thermal break) between the interior and exterior aluminium sections. This prevents heat and cold from transferring through the frame, dramatically improving energy efficiency. Without thermal breaks, aluminium conducts temperature rapidly, but thermally broken frames perform as well as or better than other frame materials while maintaining aluminium’s strength and durability.

Thermally broken aluminium offers several advantages for Perth’s climate. It provides superior strength and durability compared to other materials, along with slimmer sightlines that allow for more glass and natural light. Aluminium performs excellently in coastal environments and won’t warp, crack, or discolor in intense UV and heat. It’s also recyclable and environmentally sustainable, with powder coated finishes available in unlimited colours. Aluminium is particularly well-suited for large openings like our lift and slide doors and stacking doors.

We offer various glass specifications including standard double glazing, triple glazing, Low-E coatings for enhanced thermal performance, tinted glass for solar control, and laminated glass for additional security and noise reduction. Our team will recommend the best glass configuration for your needs.
