In UK double-glazing is basically everywhere, with triple typically replacing it as windows fail.
However, there is still a significant amount of single-glazed properties in poorer areas or in listed historical buildings.
- lbriner 5y agoYeah, Councils can be really bad at requiring people to either replace their old single-glazing with some exactly the same in double-glazed or keep the old inefficient windows. This is understandable for historical buildings but we experienced it with a box office building built in the 1970s, cost us another £11K to get cream coloured uPVC windows instead of white ones. I think that might change as we go towards energy efficiency, we need to swing the needle back towards more efficiency = good.
