Discover the Technology Behind Vacuum Glazing Windows



Vacuum glazing stands apart from traditional double glazing by replacing insulating gas with vacuum. This innovative manufacturing process delivers numerous energy efficiency benefits that will enhance the performance of both your home or commercial building.



Vacuum glazing reduces heating and cooling energy costs significantly, yielding long-term cost savings (return on investment). Furthermore, its vacuum layer helps dampen noise transmission for an interior environment free from noise pollution.



Superior thermal insulation



Vacuum glazing's low U-value can prevent heat loss from your home or commercial space and keep it cool in summer, thus cutting energy usage costs and carbon emissions significantly. As such, its use will result in lower bills and carbon reduction.



As opposed to standard double glazing, vacuum glazing works by eliminating the air layer between panes of glazing - creating an airtight hermetically sealed gap instead. Meanwhile, edges are kept apart with micro-spacers.



These spacers are made of materials designed to withstand atmospheric pressure, helping keep the gap under control and reduce heat transfer by decreasing surface temperatures of both windows.



Vacuum glazing provides superior thermal insulation as well as outstanding acoustic performance, effectively reducing external noise levels more effectively than traditional solutions. This makes vacuum glazing an excellent choice for heritage and conservation window restoration projects as it ensures modern energy efficiency without compromising historical integrity of buildings. Furthermore, it's suitable for new build homes and commercial spaces seeking maximum insulation performance.



Reduced heat transfer



Vacuum glazing significantly decreases heat transfer, creating a more comfortable indoor environment in winter and summer while simultaneously helping lower energy bills, making this an efficient cost-cutting measure for homeowners.



A sealed vacuum gap also improves acoustic insulation, leading to quieter interior spaces in homes located in urban or busy road environments where noise pollution may be an issue. This feature makes this an excellent solution for homes located nearby such as those located near busy roadways where noise pollution may be an issue.



HaanGlas VIG technology is particularly relevant to historic preservation and restoration projects, where keeping historical accuracy while improving energy efficiency are of prime concern. Thanks to its slim profile, vacuum insulating glass seamlessly emulates single glazing windows without altering their original aesthetic, making it perfect for use in heritage windows without altering their appearance. VIG makes an excellent addition for London homes or properties seeking to retain charm of historic or listed properties while improving energy efficiency - particularly those living off grid where cutting energy consumption helps reach environmental goals more efficiently.



Improved noise reduction



Vacuum glazing provides exceptional noise reduction capabilities that are particularly advantageous in urban living and listed historic properties. Sound vibrations do not travel through a vacuum but instead vibrate the space surrounding it instead, leading to a much quieter indoor environment.

The vacuum between panes also minimises conductive heat transfer, thus decreasing energy expenditure for heating or cooling homes, significantly cutting energy bills while helping the planet. This results in reduced carbon emissions.



Vacuum glazing's slim profile enables it to seamlessly integrate into traditional window frames, making it the ideal solution for upgrading older or listed properties while preserving their historic aesthetics without compromising thermal performance. Furthermore, it can improve comfort and efficiency of modern homes while upgrading comfort levels as well.



Lower energy bills



Vacuum glazing creates a comfortable indoor environment by providing superior thermal insulation and noise-reduction properties, increasing occupant comfort, as well as contributing to wellbeing and productivity.



Vacuum insulated glass differs from regular double and triple glazing by replacing air with vacuum as a medium through which heat transfers, producing U-values as low as 1 W/m2K and minimising heat loss, thus lowering heating costs and carbon footprint in winter while restricting heat gain in summer thereby cutting cooling costs.



Vacuum glazing also helps prevent condensation on windows throughout the year, maintaining clear windows all year-round. Thanks to its thin design, vacuum insulated glass is easily integrated into heritage buildings without altering their original aesthetics; making it a popular choice in conservation areas, listed buildings, historic settings and other historical environments. With its sleek profile that emulates single glazing windows it fits snugly into existing window frames seamlessly - and includes a getter to maintain its insulating integrity over time.
