Hello everyone,
We are currently reviewing the offer from our carpenter and noticed that the roof windows were only quoted as double-glazed. When I ask around, it seems that everyone is only using double glazing?
So far, I have found out that triple-glazed windows generally don’t have condensation issues. However, in winter, the window also tends not to stay clear of snow.
From an energy perspective, I’m unsure whether it’s worth paying the 300 euros (about $320) extra per window, as otherwise, they might become the weakest part of the house. We only have two windows, so it’s a relatively small extra cost—but it does add up.
What type of glazing have you installed and why?
Thanks,
Andreas
