Selectaglaze secondary glazing systems using low emissivity glass can reduce heat loss by more than half and achieve a U-value of around 1.9. With sealed unit glazing this is further reduced, and a figure as low as 0.8 can be achieved. Bespoke manufacture and high-performance seals ensure the tightest fit, reducing air infiltration and almost eliminating drafts. Secondary glazing is also an efficient method of reducing background noise, helping create a more relaxed environment. Sound travels through a primary window by a vibration of the glass. Adding secondary glazing forms a cavity, which reduces resonance and provides a second barrier for the noise to travel through. Selectaglaze secondary glazing creates a second barrier of protection from the inside that can prevent the most determined thief or even protect the occupants from the effects of bomb blast.
