Upgrading uPVC Windows in Georgia for Better Insulation with LandVac Vacuum Glazing

Written by Jeff Guest | Apr 25, 2025 3:51:43 PM

In Georgia’s varied climate—from the frosty peaks of Svaneti to the hot plains around Rustavi—keeping your home energy efficient is essential. But many homes in Georgia still rely on aging double-glazed uPVC windows, which are often no longer up to the task.

What if you could improve insulation dramatically without replacing the entire window frame? That’s exactly what LandVac vacuum glazing offers.

The Problem with Aging Double Glazing

Standard double-glazed units lose performance over time. Many older Georgian apartments—especially from the 80s and 90s—now suffer from:

  • Cold drafts in winter

  • Condensation between panes

  • Rising electricity and gas bills

Instead of tearing everything out, LandVac allows you to upgrade only the glass, preserving the original uPVC frame.

What Is LandVac Vacuum Glazing?

LandVac is an advanced glass unit that uses a vacuum-sealed gap between panes to block heat transfer almost entirely. It’s thinner and lighter than triple glazing but far more efficient.

LandVac Benefits:

  • U-value as low as 0.4 W/m²K

  • No condensation, even in high-humidity areas like Batumi

  • Slim design fits easily into existing uPVC frames

  • 25+ years of certified performance

Smart Retrofit, Minimal Disruption

You don’t need to remove the entire window. Most Georgian uPVC frames can be adapted for LandVac.

Installers simply replace the old glass units, leaving frames and walls untouched. It’s faster, cleaner, and more affordable than full replacements.

Georgian Homeowners Are Seeing Results

A pilot installation in Tbilisi showed impressive results:

  • 30% lower heating bills in winter

  • Improved interior comfort during both summer and winter

  • Less noise from street traffic

Ideal for Georgia’s Housing Types

LandVac retrofits are perfect for:

  • Soviet-era flats with aging glazing

  • Newer homes wanting premium thermal performance

  • Buildings with renovation restrictions or limited budgets

And with rising energy costs across Georgia, the upgrade often pays for itself within a few seasons.
