Market and regulatory context
The UK is moving towards tighter building regulations and lower target U-values. Vacuum glazing is a strong technical response to those tightening standards because it achieves high insulation in a slim unit.
Important points for specifiers and installers:
Vacuum glazing supports low U-values and energy efficiency ambitions.
At present, most homeowner retrofit grant schemes do not offer direct funding specifically for vacuum glazing.
Retrofitting rules and notification requirements vary and can be unclear; this gives flexibility but means you should be cautious when making claims about eligibility for grants.
Landlords have legal duties linked to Energy Performance Certificates. Vacuum glazing is a practical option for landlords looking to improve EPC ratings in rented properties without full frame replacement.
We recommend that installers and property owners check the latest guidance for grant eligibility and building control, and we are happy to advise customers on how vacuum glazing fits into wider regulatory and compliance strategies.

Frequently asked questions
How thin are vacuum glass units?
Vacuum glass units are significantly thinner than standard double glazing while achieving similar or better U-values, with a minimum thickness of 6.2mm.
Do vacuum glazed units need special frames?
In many cases, existing frames can accept vacuum glazed units with minimal modification, but frame tolerance and rebate depth should be checked.
Are there grants available for vacuum glazing?
Currently there is limited direct grant support specifically for vacuum glazing for homeowners. Grant and retrofit schemes change over time, so check current government guidance for the latest information.
Can vacuum glass help with landlord EPC requirements?
Yes. Upgrading glazing with vacuum units can improve thermal performance and contribute to higher EPC ratings. Landlords should consider this as a targeted retrofit option.
What warranty do you offer?
Warranty terms vary by product and project. We supply full documentation with every order and will discuss warranty and maintenance at quote stage.
