As well as this, the embodied carbon and toxic chemicals used in to manufacture upvc windows, coupled with end-of-life disposal problems, makes them a harmful choice for the environment.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ background_image=”7322″ enable_bg_scale=”true” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ background_image=”7321″ enable_bg_scale=”true” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-8-percent” column_padding_position=”all” background_color=”#f7f7f7″ background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]Where you have suitable existing traditional timber windows, upgrading the glazing<\/a> can protect the historic authenticity of the existing timber windows, and provide the most eco-friendly choice.<\/p>\n But which energy efficient window glazing should you choose?<\/p>\n At Andrew Jaynes, we use high-performance Fineo glazing which can usually be fitted in place of your existing single-glazed windows. Once fitted, the original window frames are repaired, and weather strips can be incorporated that significantly improve draughtiness[\/vc_column_text][nectar_btn size=”medium” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”extra-color-gradient-1″ icon_family=”none” text=”GET IN TOUCH” margin_top=”40″ url=”https:\/\/www.andrewjaynes.co.uk\/contact-us\/”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” top_padding=”100″ bottom_padding=”50″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”padding-3-percent” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/3″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”] <\/p>\n New to the market, Fineo vacuum glazing has been specifically designed for window pane replacement to existing traditional timber windows. Here are just a few of the reasons why you should consider it:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Fineo glazing has the same thermal efficiency as a 44mm thick triple glazing (Ug 0.7) but the thickness of the glazing is just 6.8mm – far thinner than typical slimline double glazing, which is around 12mm thick (Ug 1.9).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Fineo uses vacuum cavities, as opposed to standard gas filled cavities, which provide far more efficient insulation than any type of gas infill. Although vacuum glazing technology is not new, Fineo is unique in having eliminated the conspicuous round cover caps that are a feature of other vacuum glazing products.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Other \u2018slimline\u2019 sealed units are known to fail prematurely at the edge seals that bond the two panes of glass together. Once the edge seal is breached, the unit mists up and performance is lost.<\/p>\n Fineo differs considerably from this type of unit. By using a vacuum instead of gas infill to achieve insulation, the cavity needs only be 0.5mm thick which eliminates the need for an edge spacer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For better long-term value and peace of mind, Fineo glazing comes with a 15-year guarantee – although manufacturers suggest that Fineo windows will last for decades.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” bg_image=”7319″ bg_position=”center center” bg_repeat=”no-repeat” bg_color=”#afb7a7″ scene_position=”center” text_color=”light” text_align=”center” top_padding=”10%” bottom_padding=”10%” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/1″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n <\/p>\n Please feel free to get in touch by phone or fill the form out below. We look forward to hearing from you.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text]\n <\/p> WHY CHOOSE A GLAZING UPGRADE INSTEAD OF A COMPLETE WINDOW REPLACEMENT?<\/h3>\n
WHY IS FINEO GLAZING THE MOST ENERGY EFFICIENT FOR WINDOWS?<\/h2>\n
Thermal efficiency<\/h3>\n
Vacuum cavivites<\/h3>\n
Longer lasting<\/h3>\n
It has a 15-year guaranteed<\/h3>\n
BUT IF YOU DO HAVE TO OPT FOR REPLACEMENT DOUBLE-GLAZED WINDOWS, CHOOSE TIMBER WINDOW FRAMES<\/h2>\n
Not only will high-performance timber windows from Andrew Jaynes look perfect in a period property, they\u2019ll give you outstanding heat saving benefits and can have twice the life expectancy upvc. As well as this, timber is undisputedly the only credible low carbon choice for replacement double glazed windows for the long term.<\/h4>\n[\/vc_column_text][nectar_btn size=”medium” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”extra-color-gradient-2″ icon_family=”none” el_class=”button-text-dark” text=”REQUEST A QUOTE” margin_top=”40″ url=”https:\/\/www.andrewjaynes.co.uk\/contact-us\/”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ background_image=”7320″ enable_bg_scale=”true” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”padding-8-percent” column_padding_position=”all” background_color=”#f7f7f7″ background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n
