Should bedrooms get double glazing? Here's how we'd decide.
Double glazing means two panes of glass with a sealed gap between them. The trapped gap slows heat and sound transfer far better than a single pane can.
Single glazing is one pane of glass. It's simpler and cheaper, and on a sheltered, quiet opening it's often perfectly adequate.
Bedrooms are where quiet matters most, so a road-facing bedroom is the strongest case for laminated glass and double glazing in the house. A quiet, shaded bedroom needs neither — and we'd say so.
It depends what they face. A road-facing or west-facing bedroom benefits clearly — quiet sleep and less heat. A quiet, shaded bedroom often doesn't need it.
Laminated glass with tight sealing does the most for sleep; double glazing adds to it.
Not necessarily — we'd spec by what each room faces.
