Flexible Warm Edge Spacer Bars

What Are Warm Edge Spacer Bars?

Warm edge spacer bars are crucial components in modern double glazing units designed to reduce thermal bridging, improve energy efficiency, and minimise condensation. At Edgetech, we offer a range of high-performance spacer bars, including our flagship Super Spacer®, engineered to meet the highest standards of thermal performance.

Benefits of Warm Edge Spacer Bars

• Energy Efficiency: Warm edge spacer bars significantly reduce heat loss at the edges of the window, leading to lower heating bills and reduced CO2 emissions.
• Condensation Reduction: By maintaining a higher edge temperature, our spacer bars help to prevent condensation and subsequent mould growth.
• Enhanced Comfort: Improved insulation results in a more comfortable indoor environment, free from draughts and cold spots near windows.
• Durability: Our spacer bars are manufactured to the highest quality standards, ensuring long-term performance and durability.

Understanding the Role of Warm Edge Spacer Bars in Double Glazing

In double-glazed windows, warm edge spacer bars are very important for keeping heat inside. They sit between the two glass panes and stop heat from moving from one pane to the other. This helps keep a good temperature in your home, no matter what the weather is like outside.
Warm edge spacers also stop the creation of “thermal bridges.” These are spots where heat can easily escape. By lowering heat transfer, warm edge spacers make your home more energy-efficient. They also help create a steady and nice living space.

Comparing Warm Edge Spacer Bars with Conventional Options

When it comes to window insulation, the choice of spacer bars can make a substantial difference in energy savings and comfort. While traditional aluminum spacer bars were once commonplace, warm edge spacers have emerged as a superior alternative due to their superior thermal performance.

Here’s a simple comparison table highlighting the key differences:

Frequently Asked Questions

What Makes Warm Edge Spacer Bars Different from Aluminum Spacer Bars?

Warm edge spacer bars are designed using materials that conduct heat less than aluminum spacer bars. This helps to cut down on heat transfer. As a result, you get better energy efficiency, lower energy costs, and more comfort in your home.

Can Warm Edge Spacer Bars Really Save on Energy Costs?

Yes, warm edge technology improves thermal insulation. It helps keep heat in during winter and reduces heat gain in summer. This change means you use less energy. In turn, you can see savings on your heating and cooling bills.

How Do Warm Edge Spacer Bars Improve Window Longevity?

Warm edge spacer bars help reduce condensation. This protects your windows from moisture that can harm the frame and seals. In turn, this helps your windows last longer and be more durable.

Are Warm Edge Spacer Bars Suitable for All Window Types?

Warm edge spacer bars can be used in many types of windows. This includes double glazing, triple glazing, and windows made for Passive House designs. These spacer bars work well as long as they include an insulating glass unit.

How to Choose the Right Warm Edge Spacer Bar for Your Needs?

Think about your climate, energy savings goals, and the kind of glass you are using. Talking to a window expert can help you pick the right warm edge spacer bar for your needs. This will improve the thermal performance in your home.
