0.6 to 0.8 Uw Andy depending on the spec. KSM glazing in Newmacher, ask to speak to Kenny. The windows come from Window supply company in Altens, ask to speak to Shannon. I heartily recommend both companies.
Wow, that is significantly better than my current 3G windows. The Pine field ones were only 1.0 which I didn't think was great but couldn't find anything better at the time. Thanks for that.
Just wondering. The pine field whole unit is 1.1 but the glass is 0.61. Thought I’d post that for clarification.
So it's pish then?
Pinefield were way expensive when I asked them to quote.

Andy, if it helps any. Pinefield came in £2,500 dearer and that's without a front door in their quote.

Sadly and this might be karmic kickback for lightly ribbing Andy earlier today. The trapezoidal glazing units have cratered enroute and need to be remade. I am sanguine, SWMBO does not deal with change in quite the same fashion.
Ah well, the job will roll onward and they'll fit timber blanks in the trap frames so we can just about finish up. Glazing can be a real pita!

Oh dear!
At least it is someone else's problem to deal with. What is the lead-time on the replacement glass?

3x 380W JA Solar panels (1.14kWp)
6x 2.4kWh Pylontech batteries (14.4kWh)

Coupleaweeks, they'll have keys so can come in and fit the glazing units while we're in Turkey, fingers .
Dormers take even longer to do. Way beyond 1 day each. Looking good though.

Yeah I wonder if they have increased prices. The new quote seems quite a bit more than my last one.
One way to find out. Kenny, Stevie & Mikie are all excellent.
Dormers will be finished tomorrow and then onto the rear lounge with the big glass.

I shall try and give them a shout tomorrow if I don't get called in to work. Works always getting in the way
I mentioned you to them today. I wouldn't steer you wrong.
