Velux windows are a fantastic way to flood your home with natural light and improve ventilation, especially in loft conversions, bathrooms, and stairwells. However, over time, the glass in Velux windows can become misted, cracked, or inefficient—leaving your home less comfortable and energy-efficient. That’s where LN Glazing comes in.
We recently completed a Velux glass replacement for a homeowner who had been dealing with foggy, heat-leaking windows in their converted attic. The difference after the replacement was not only instantly noticeable—it was transformative.
Why Replace Velux Window Glass?
Many people assume that when a Velux window begins to fail, the whole unit must be replaced. In most cases, that’s not true. If the frame is still in good condition, you can simply replace the glass unit, saving money and reducing disruption.
Here are some of the common signs that your Velux glass may need replacing:
- 🌫️ Condensation between panes (misted glass)
- ❄️ Drafts or cold spots around the window
- 🪟 Cracked or chipped glazing
- ☀️ Increased solar heat gain in summer
- 🔇 Poor noise insulation
In our recent project, the client had two Velux windows in their bedroom, both of which had become fogged up and drafty over time. The affected glass was reducing light and allowing unwanted heat loss in winter.
Our Velux Glass Replacement Process
Our expert team at LN Glazing began by carefully assessing the existing frames to ensure they were structurally sound. Once confirmed, we removed the old double-glazed units and fitted new, high-performance replacement glass—specifically designed for roof window use.
We used low-E, energy-efficient glass to improve insulation, reduce heat loss, and eliminate condensation. The client also chose a UV-filtering upgrade to protect furnishings and improve comfort on sunny days.
The process was quick, clean, and non-invasive. The homeowner was thrilled with the outcome, particularly the renewed brightness and improved warmth in their space.
