  • old windows or wear and tear: time is an enemy of our windows, and after 15 years it might be time to reassess their conditions;
  • vibrating windows: hearing the  glass windows vibrating is a clear sign of window fixtures that are due to be replaced. As they get old, they lose their ability to keep everything safely sealed;
  • external noise: if noises from outside disturbs the tranquility of your home is probably because your windows don’t offer you enough acoustic insulation. Changing the windows with new models will resolve your problem;

Double Glazing Blinds: why chose them

All signs showing that might be the right time to change your windows can be fixed by choosing to buy new windows with blinds inside their double glazing.

The Venetian blind is sealed between the two glasses in a cavity between 20mm and 27mm, a width large enough to fit the blind.

This solution for double glazing allows you to have significant benefits in terms of acoustic isolation, resolving all the disadvantages caused by humidity, condensation, and draught.

The presence of the double glazing guarantees maximum protection privacy and security.

The maintenance and cleaning will have to be performed very rarely as the blinds are sealed from the inside, and this will protect them from possible damages caused by atmospheric agents as well as dust and dirt.

The internal blind can be managed manually, with a knob or rope system, or with an automated system with an electric motor which can be powered with small photovoltaic panels.

With regards to aesthetics factor and their durability in time, double glazing blinds give every environment an elegant and modern appearance throughout the years.

There are some models with innovative design and advanced technologies available on the Sunbell catalog and available for you to look at in the Crystal section:

  • systems with a rechargeable battery and a wireless magnetic actuator, suitable also for sliding windows;
  • systems capable of managing multiple blinds, thanks to a wall switch and remote control;
  • systems with an ultra-thin membrane to be applied directly on the glass;
  • systems with a manual knob to regulate the light of a room depending on your needs;
  • manual magnetic systems controlled with a rope that allows the lifting and tilting of the blinds utilising two magnets, one internal and one external to the glass.

As we saw, the windows with inside double glazing allow you to have elegance, durability over time, practicality, safety and energy savings in a unique solution.

The best choice for a modern and functional home.
