Arctic Glaze was contacted to help eliminate cold draughts and increase thermal insulation for a Grade II Listed home situated in Ironville.
Almost every period property features traditional single-glazed windows manufactured from timber or slimline crittall windows, they add charm and character to a building’s aesthetics but often provide little thermal insulation. This wasn’t an exception for this Grade II Listed Property located in Ironville. As a result, we were contacted by the homeowner to help minimise heat loss by installing slimline Secondary Glazing.
To match the style and function of the primary windows, we specified the installation of Horizontal Sliding and Vertical Sliding Secondary Glazing installed with Low-E glass. Where heat loss is a concern, Low-E glass is often recommended as it reflects heat back into the room

A microscopic coating less than the thickness of a human hair is applied to the glass, this coating provides optimum thermal performance and often decreases heat loss by as much as 60%.
When conducting work on Listed buildings, it is paramount that any aspect of the installed product doesn’t alter the original fabric of the building. Furthermore we take every consideration to ensure that the secondary glazed system is slimline and provides a genuinely unobtrusive aesthetic, we have several styles of Secondary Glazing available allowing us to specify a system that works in conjunction with your original primary windows.
