Gecko Secondary Glazing Experiences?
Options

Posts: 639 Forumite

Hi all,
I own a Grade II-listed property with single glazed windows.
Especially this winter the heat loss has been quite noticeable and it is hard to heat up the rooms to a comfortable state on a constant basis.
I looked into various options of insulation incl adding secondary glazing and came via a Facebook thread across Gecko Glazing from Edinburgh. Online reviews are surprisingly all very positive, to an extent even too positive it feels.
I have a requested a survey, but in the meantime wanted to see if anybody on this forum has experience with them and/or a more educated view on the technique and materials they use in terms of effectiveness regarding insulation / reduction of heat loss.
thank you

This is an old thread, I realise, but I just stumbled across it.
I have installed Gecko Glazing and I think it is truly excellent. A real step change in efficiency with minimal visual intrusion.
Order a single test pane to try it out if you're unsure.1 -
yes i installed it after all as well last year. super easy and believe it worked fine this winter and helped with insulation. overall pretty happy and good customer service0
