Glazing Refurbishments
Glass-facade buildings and curtain walls let in Natural light, exude style and allow views. When the facade takes up the whole face of a building, the energy performance or the building can be compromised. Glazed openings are potential points for excessive heat gains in summer, and heat losses in winter. The design of a building depends on many factors - Size of openings, orientation, - materials to be used - Any shading devices (internal and external) The dilemma, of reaching a good balance is one that faces any designer of such facades. As we live in a temperate region our geographical position makes it importanyt to desighn for heat retention in winter months and minimising thermal gain in the summer months to reduce the use of air conditioning. Modern double glazing has advanced properties such as low emmisivity coating to mitigate the effects of extreme heat or cold whereas older structures with older glazing technology lags behind on the necessary performance. It is suggested that older glazing installations recieve regular maintenance checks to ensure that the system is performing to its maximum efficiency, and to spot any faults or defects in the system.
