Box Hill sits at the intersection of some of Melbourne’s busiest transport corridors. The Eastern Freeway runs along the suburb’s northern edge, the Belgrave/Lilydale rail line cuts through its centre, and the Route 109 tram runs the length of Whitehorse Road. For homeowners still living behind single-glazed aluminium or timber windows, the noise is constant and the temperature swings can be hard to manage. Nu-Eco supplies and installs double glazed UPVC windows & doors in Box Hill, manufactured in the UK and fitted by our own in-house team from our Melbourne base.

UPVC Double Glazed Windows and Doors for Box Hill Homes
Why Box Hill Homes Need Better Windows
Much of Box Hill’s residential housing dates from the post-war boom of the 1950s and 1960s: brick veneer homes on generous blocks, many still fitted with original aluminium-framed single glazing. These frames conduct heat and cold freely, and they do almost nothing to block traffic noise. Alongside these older homes, recent high-density townhouse and apartment development has added a new layer of urban sound. Whether you’re in a weatherboard cottage near the train line or a renovated family home backing onto Whitehorse Road, the problem is the same: draughty windows that let noise and temperature extremes in.
Nu-Eco’s double glazed windows use 28mm Argon gas filled insulated glass units with Low-E coating as standard, delivering certified U-values of 1.5 W/m²K. The fully welded UPVC frames eliminate air infiltration, recording just 0.1 L/sec against a standard allowance of 5.0 L/sec. For Box Hill homes exposed to constant road and rail noise, this combination reduces sound transmission by up to 80%. Our double glazed doors are built to the same specification, so every opening in your home performs consistently.

How Our Windows Handle Box Hill’s Urban Noise
Living close to the Eastern Freeway, the Belgrave/Lilydale line, or the Route 109 tram corridor means persistent background noise that standard windows barely dampen. Nu-Eco’s awning windows and casement windows use fully welded frame corners with no mechanical joins, which eliminates the gaps that let sound pass through. Combined with the sealed 28mm IGU, external noise is reduced by up to 80%. An added benefit Box Hill homeowners appreciate is the elimination of condensation on cold mornings: the thermal break between the sealed panes stops moisture forming on the interior glass surface, which is a common complaint with older single-glazed aluminium frames.
Energy Savings That Add Up in Every Season
Melbourne’s temperature range puts real pressure on homes with poor-performing windows. Nu-Eco’s Eurocell Logik 70mm profile system features up to five enclosed chambers for structural rigidity and thermal insulation. Each chamber traps a layer of still air, slowing heat transfer through the frame itself. Paired with Argon gas filled IGUs and standard Low-E coating, the result is a certified U-value of 1.5 W/m²K, with options as low as 0.8 W/m²K for homeowners who want even higher performance. In practice, this means your heating and cooling systems work less to maintain a comfortable temperature. For households weighing up the investment, Green Loans and Handypay finance options are available to spread the cost.
