Hello everyone,
a new topic has come up again. Yesterday, the window installer was on-site for the measurements.
The question arose whether to choose double or triple glazing. The window installer tends to prefer double glazing, saying it lets in more light and the rooms are brighter compared to triple glazing. Honestly, I hadn’t really thought about that before.
By the way, this concerns a prefabricated house from the late 1970s with a brick facade. According to feedback from the energy consultant, triple glazing would not be a problem as long as you ventilate properly.
From what I have read online, we might also be eligible for a subsidy from KfW for triple-glazed windows. So now I am wondering whether to go with double or triple glazing. What are your opinions on this? Thanks

Thanks in advance for your opinions. I will discuss this again with the window manufacturer, but at the moment I am leaning more towards the triple-glazed windows, especially since you can still apply for the KFW subsidy with them. From what I have read, this is rather difficult with double-glazed windows because the U-value is usually not low enough. I hope I have understood this correctly.
