Do you live in a conservation area or listed building?
06 June 2019
Are you thinking of restoring or upgrading your timber windows but you are restricted to using single glazing that the frames were originally designed for?
Well now you can enjoy all the thermal benefits from an double glazed unit which will fit into those traditional glazing rebates, it is no longer necessary to expect people who live in older buildings or who want to keep that heritage style design to miss out on optimizing their insulation.Here at IMC glass we have invested in the design and manufacture of an ultra-slim , low-sight line double glazed unit which using the latest technology can offer high heat retaining benefits for your home when you have to balance historic preservation with comfort and environment requirements, also it works beautifully in newly constructed homes wanting to achieve that historic look.
Already our product has been used on projects across Ireland including
Queen’s University
Dublin National Art Gallery
Coolmore Stud Farm
U.S.A Ambassador Residence
Dromoland Castle
Ashford Castle
Hillsborough Castle
Tulira Castle
Malone Exchange
Rockhill House
And many more heritage projects
We have also been Featured on Building Ireland Magazine
How does it work?
Standard double glazing consists of two glass panes usually 16-20mm apart, and would have a sight-line of 12mm these are usually filled with dry air or a standard window grade gas such as argon, while thermally efficient this results in the unit sometimes being nearly 30mm thick.
With IMC Slim-Glaze we use the latest in thermal glass and the very latest in warm edge technology to ensure the two panes are only 4mm apart, which is then filled with a heavy inert gas either Krypton or Xenon which gives you the best maximum insulation properties far superior to argon gas which achieves a low U-value. The reduction of heat lost through the glass is up to 77% as when compared to single glazing. and using our low-sight line perimeter bar we can ensure that the total sight-line is 7mm to 8mm
Founded in 1990 IMC glass is a family run business which has been manufacturing double glazing to the highest standards, fully B.S.I kite-marked to the latest European standards and we are also a pilkington glass energiKare partner offering the latest in energy saving glasses on the market today.
