When you look at the finite detail in window design, you miss the critical point... what is the Uw i.e. the overall U value of the whole window.
There are a…

Interesting.
Which film did you use?

Coronet Bay 83m2
Yarraville 137m2

I don't have that Alex, but you are welcome to see the energy reports and the window schedules.

If you read my post a while ago, Thermally Broken Windows - You Don't Need Them, where I said that all that matters is performance, not the technology. Well here…

Alternative is double glazing... you are correct about low-E

Hi Carly
The first does not mention double glazing.
Other than that the second is VERY expensive.
The sindows will be essentially the same.
Our aluminium window double glazed (for comparison) would be $750,…

The main window in question is 2400x1200 so 2.88m2 but the first quote was over $2200 so > $750m2. Is that quote too high in your opinion?
It is a silly…

Hi
I recommend that you eliminate all other noise possibilities before embarking on changing windows, or glazing. Noise can enter your home through the ceiling, the walls and the floor, and…

I am sure if you interrogate the data in WERS you will find an example showing a warm edge spacer versus a standard spacer, for the same window. This should…

Hi Amber,
What sort of windows do you have now? Timber or aluminium?

Yes, exactly... Just make sure you compare like with like as far as the glazing is concerned. e.g. 4/12/4 clear.

This is a thermally broken window...

Double glaze them all, the future may require that, and you won't be saving much anyway.

The spacers are included in the WERS Uw rating, so I would only look at the Uw rating.
It is true that a "warm edge spacer" is more efficient that the…

Don't compare Low-E with double glazing. They perform 2 different functions... Low-E controls solar heat gain i.e. radiant heat. Double glazing controls conducted heat.
The only useful function for low-E glass…

The spacers are included in the WERS Uw rating, so I would only look at the Uw rating.

Every supplier can do this... one-way-mesh

These look dated, but the new ones do the same job. I am sure you can buy them in Bunn...
A locksmith can key them alike.

Sorry, I thought the lines were in between the double glazing... there are lots of cleaners to try...

With milk and sugar... you have it with salt, I think.

I see you started off the day with piping Scotts Porridge Oats...

I don't know the extent of this problem, but we have replaced glass problems as described in the past.
I used to run A&L and when the glass supplier failed…

I don't offer this but my estimation would be $150 - $200 per square metre for single glazed.
If you are doing this to lower your solar heat gain from direct…

Sorry I missed your post Jonny,
You are right. Extend the eave over the doors, it beats low-E.

By the way...
Any glass problems will have been created during glass production. The glass supplier is your friend.

Hi
I don't get many questions these days. There is a lot of information and misinformation on the forum, I can add to information and correct misinformation, just ask.
Please feel free…

They use them in hospital also because they can be obscured and require a key to alter that. So the public cannot adjust them, only staff.
They work fine generally, we…
