Hi all

We live in Belgium and we have a nice old fashioned house with single glazing in Oak frames, the council won't let us fit new windows :(

What do you think of this idea!!!!

The window frames are in good condition and there seems to be no draughts as they were very well made in their time. The glass is 3mm thick with lead strips, this is the part we cannot change :( my idea is to fit 6mm Pilkington K glass on the inside of the frames, in effect giving a 1" gap between glass, could this give enough saving on heat loss to make this a viable project???????

Your thoughts

If there is no draughts leave it , if you really want to draught proof secondary glaze it with proper secondary units
