Join us in Dodges Ferry, Tasmania where we meet Joe - the first person in Australia to have his house completely reglazed with Glavenir vacuum-insulated glass by Panasonic.
Owner Joe really wanted to retain the original character of his home, whilst achieving greater energy efficiency and comfort, plus eliminating condensation on his windows and doors.
"There was a terrible amount of heat loss, and a terrible amount of condensation. My wife was forever going around mopping up all this moisture that was pooling on the windows", says Joe.
With a complete refurbishment by Sealasash, his wooden windows and doors have not only been reglazed with this brand new double glazing technology but also upgraded to include air-tight draught seals that make the windows operate perfectly smoothly again.
Joe is already seeing incredible improvements in comfort and temperate stability, and there’s no more condensation build up.
Glavenir vacuum-insulated glass by Panasonic is a revolutionary glazing technology that has an astonishing u-value of 0.7 in a unit that's only 6.1mm thick.
This means existing single-glazed windows can now be reglazed to triple-glazing standard without ruining the character of the home.
