Not All Double-Glazing Is Created Equal
Even if your current windows are double-glazed, you might be surprised to learn it doesn’t necessarily guarantee they are energy efficient.
Minimum window energy ratings (WER) didn’t come into effect until 2002, where the minimum WER to meet Building Regulations in England was an E-rating. From 2010 to June 2022, the minimum WER was raised to a C-rating, and even now – following the latest changes in legislation – the minimum requirement is still only a B-rating. To put these energy ratings into perspective, a C-rated window loses up to 94% less heat than an E-rated window.
To this day, countless double-glazing companies only install windows and doors that meet minimum Building Regulation requirements. This tends to minimise your initial upfront cost (purchase price), but having windows and doors installed with lower energy ratings ultimately means keeping your heating system operating longer and spending more money on energy bills – not to mention generating more CO2.

Truhouse ensured I was kept informed of when the installation was planned and their fitter was excellent and courteous whilst fitting the door to my property. The product supplied is excellent but has only been fitted for a couple of weeks.

This is the second time this year I have used the services of truhouse. The first time they fitted a new front door with which I am very pleased. This time they replaced two windows in my porch, the work and quality of the product is excellent. In all my dealings with the truhouse team, whether speaking on the phone, going into the showroom, or with the fitter Dave, they are all courteous, friendly, helpful and provide an excellent service.

Very professional service from phone enquiry, measure-up visit and written quote, phone updates and installation. Would recommend, pricey but you get what you pay for. Had a black aluminium steel framed full glass door fitted – very pleased with it 😀👍

We are very pleased with the competitively priced window and sliding door truhouse installed. From the start, Dave and Mo gave us useful information about products and recorded all requests. Their work and attention to finishing was excellent. They made sure we knew how to use the locks, and they completed a check-list at the end of the job. What a pleasure having a company that puts excellence first.

I chose truhouse as they were a small local family-run business. I wanted new windows and doors for my own property and the property we rent out. From start to finish, truhouse were professional and would help in any way they could. The guys who came to fit the doors and windows were very professional and tidied up after themselves. I would certainly recommend truhouse for replacement doors or windows.

Positive experience from my first enquiry through to the fitting of front door. Every person I had dealings with, whether it was on the telephone, in person at the office/showroom, or Dave who came to measure and fit the door, was friendly, courteous and helpful. I am delighted with the quality and appearance of my new front door.

From start to finish truhouse has been outstanding – the right level of professionalism, approachability and friendliness that has made the whole process stress free. I can not rate the filters enough – they have done an outstanding job and the administration and communication throughout has been faultless. I am one very satisfied customer!

We have known truhouse as a company for many years and know of their commitment to excellence and quality customer service, but we had never actually bought windows from them until now. They absolutely didn’t let us down. Not only competitive on price, but super friendly, great advice and reliably turned up when they said they would. We are so pleased with our windows – it’s changed our whole experience of our bedroom. Thank you!

Frequently Asked Double-Glazing Questions
There are a few different answers to this question, and it is vital to pay attention to which surface of the glass condensation forms on, as it’s location indicates the cause and points to the solution.
If you’re noticing condensation forming within the two panes of glass in your double-glazed unit (known as the cavity), then this is a visual indication that the seal has failed and the double-glazed unit will need to be replaced.
If you’re seeing condensation form on the room side surface of your glass, this would indicate high levels of moisture and inadequate ventilation in the room. There are different steps you can take to resolve this depending on the type of room (i.e. bathroom, kitchen, bedroom, etc.) and exact cause, but increasing ventilation is always helpful.
If you’ve recently had your windows or doors replaced and are now getting condensation on the external/outside surface of some of them (often described as a light misting or dew concentrated centrally on the glass) after a cold clear night, this is an indication that your windows and doors are incredibly energy-efficient and preventing heat loss from your home. This condensation is temporary, will clear fairly quickly, and won’t lead to any damp problems, so is nothing to be concerned about.
For a deep dive into how and why condensation occurs on certain surfaces, as well as some advice about reducing condensation based on where it’s occurring, please click here.
The lifespan of double-glazing can vary depending on several factors, including its composition, the quality of the installation, and how well looked after and maintained it is.
There are a few different signs that indicate it might be time to consider replacing your double-glazing:
Condensation within the cavity:
If you notice condensation forming between the glass panes, it indicates that the seal has failed and moisture is entering the space between the glass. This not only impairs the thermal efficiency but also affects the appearance of the glass due to the misting and clouding that occurs.
Damage or deterioration:
Physical damage, such as cracks, chips, or warping, can significantly impact the performance and appearance of double-glazing. If the damage is beyond repair or if you notice significant deterioration, replacement may be necessary.
Draughts or air leaks:
Over time, the seals around the windows can deteriorate, leading to draughts and air leaks. If you feel noticeable draughts coming through your windows or doors, especially when they are closed, it might be time to consider replacement.
Energy efficiency concerns:
Older double-glazed windows and doors don’t provide the same level of energy efficiency as newer models with their advances in technology. If you begin to notice a significant increase in your energy bills (that isn’t simply due to energy company price increases) or if your windows and doors are not effectively insulating your home, upgrading to more energy-efficient windows and doors can help reduce energy costs.
Noise reduction:
If you live in a noisy area and your current windows are not effectively reducing the outside noise, upgrading to windows with enhanced sound insulation properties can make a noticeable difference.
But it’s important to note that these are general guidelines. If you have concerns about the performance or appearance of your windows and doors, please do get in touch with your nearest truhouse. team today, and our friendly experts can assess your situation and provide tailored advice.
Unfortunately we don’t currently offer a standalone glass replacement service – we only replace windows and doors in their entirety.
The only exception to this is in the rare event that the glass in a window or door installed by truhouse. has failed under warranty.
Despite the fact that we don’t offer our own glass replacement service, your local truhouse. team may be able to recommend a reputable company in your area. Click here to find your nearest truhouse. team.
