Key checks for Ashford (Surrey) projects
How it works
When heated, the interlayers turn opaque and expand, forming an insulating shield. After a fire the glass will need replacing.
Exterior positions
Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.
The temperature rule
EI testing limits the average temperature rise on the unexposed face to 140°C and any single point to 180°C, which is why people can pass it.

Why is insulated fire glass so much more expensive?
It is a multi-layer product with specialist interlayers, and the frame and installation must suit its weight.

The glazing system kept fire on one side (integrity) and limited the temperature rise on the other side (insulation) for at least 60 minutes in a standard fire test.
Can you price insulated fire glass in Ashford (Surrey) from photos?
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Ashford (Surrey)?
