Why Double Glazing is Perfect for Canberra Homes

Canberra’s climate is one of Australia’s most extreme. Summers can be scorching, winters bitterly cold, and the swings between the two are becoming more pronounced. For homeowners, keeping your home comfortable throughout the year is a real challenge.

Preparing for a hotter future

Climate projections indicate significant changes ahead. By 2090, Canberra is expected to experience more than five times the number of days exceeding 35°C compared to the 1990–2009 average. Longer, hotter summers mean increased pressure on air conditioning, and the seasonal swings remain just as dramatic. These extremes make heating and cooling systems work overtime, increasing energy bills and making it harder to maintain consistent indoor comfort.

How double glazing helps

Double glazing is built to tackle temperature extremes. It features two panes of glass separated by an insulating gas layer, keeping your home warmer in winter, cooler in summer, and more energy-efficient throughout the year. Combined with our uPVC frames, which offer low thermal conductivity, airtight construction and a multi-chambered design, your home is protected against unwanted heat loss or gain, no matter the season.

Beyond temperature control

Double glazing isn’t just about maintaining the perfect indoor temperature. It also:

• Reduces noise from traffic or neighbours
• Prevents condensation, protecting window frames and interiors

Many Canberra homeowners notice a real difference. Their homes feel quieter, drier, and more comfortable.

We think they, they look pretty good and functional.”

“It was definitely a lot less drafty when I was standing against the window, giving there was no blind or curtain in front of it. So that was pretty good. There was no condensation this morning, which was great.”
