  • Does it have secondary glazing outside?

    (also cc @BrickMan will reply to both in this)

    It used to - but the secondary window outside was gone. Rotten, glass not connected to the wood and probably quite dangerous as could have fallen out on to next door's porch/drive. Stained window had to come out to be repaired, which meant taking the outer window out. Deliberately didn't put it back as would have had to pay ££££ to have a new one made.

    My logic (and that of the guy who did it) was that once the stained glass had been refurbed, try it out and see if it needs the second window. That second window can't have been original, and cathedrals have stained glass which won't leak water in...

    So I think I am going to need to get that outer window re made and hopefully not mess the bathroom/walls up too badly between now and then.

  • It would be a job, but could get a frame built for the outside, either single glaze it (glass is very cheap, maybe £50 for it!) or get some of that vacuum glass (zero glass I think is the brand?) which is very thin and achieves similar performance to regular DG
