UPVC Double Glazed Windows and Doors for Glen Iris Homes
Freeway Noise and Ageing Windows in Glen Iris
Glen Iris was largely built up between the 1920s and 1960s, well before the Monash Freeway arrived. The windows in these homes were never designed to cope with constant freeway noise, and the single-glazed timber or aluminium frames offer almost no acoustic or thermal barrier. Draughts, heat loss, and condensation are common through the cooler months, particularly on the freeway side of the home.
Nu-Eco’s sealed 28mm Argon gas filled insulated glass units, paired with fully welded multi-chambered UPVC frames, address all of this. Air infiltration drops to 0.1 L/sec, compared to the 5.0 L/sec the standard allows. Our casement windows and awning windows are popular replacements in Glen Iris, and our double glazed doors use the same IGU specification so performance is consistent across every opening.

How Double Glazing Cuts Energy Costs in Glen Iris
Single-glazed windows are the weakest thermal link in any home. Glass alone offers minimal insulation, and aluminium frames actively conduct heat in and out. Nu-Eco’s 28mm IGUs use two panes of 4mm glass separated by a 20mm spacer filled with Argon gas. The Low-E coating reflects radiant heat back into the room in winter and blocks solar gain in summer.
The UPVC frame itself contains up to five enclosed chambers, each trapping a layer of still air for additional insulation. Steel reinforcement provides structural strength without creating a thermal bridge, because it’s fully enclosed within the UPVC profile. The result is a certified U-value of 1.5 W/m²K with standard glass, dropping to as low as 0.8 W/m²K with upgraded options. See the full data on our certifications page.
Secure Double Glazed Windows and Doors for Glen Iris
Every Nu-Eco window and door is fitted with European multi-point locking hardware carrying UK “Secure by Design” Police accreditation. The glass is internally glazed, meaning panes can only be removed from inside the property. Steel-reinforced UPVC profiles add structural rigidity to every frame.
For entry points, our composite front doors combine the same locking hardware with the insulation and acoustic performance of a sealed double glazed unit. Security, thermal performance, and noise reduction in one upgrade.
