Hello,
I have some 20 year old double glazed units. They were very good quality frames and units at the time.This has been reflected in their longevity as they are still in very good condition. As far as I can see none have failed or misted up as of yet.....
My question.....if any do fail....is it a simple process to just replace the glazing? ?
As far as I can see, they are externally beaded. Is there a major risk of the beading breaking or something else going wrong if at some point I do need to replaced a misted up pane.
I am loathed to replace a whole frame and units if a simple piece is at risk of snapping as I assume it will be impossible to get a replacement piece of beading 20 years later.
