We're turning the cold storage room into a room.

Winter on the balcony minus, summer on hell. Condensate on the windows, other corners, a cage of cracks.
You probably have.cold glazing— a standard 4mm glass or a single-camera glass pack with simple glass.
I replace it with a two-room glass case with energy-efficient glass, and the balcony becomes a different place, not a warehouse with ink, but a normal room.
Full cost — work + materials
240 roubles.
for 1 m²
Glass packets + sticks + dismantling + installation.
No hidden fees.
How is cold glass different from warm glass?
I'll explain it simply, without technical terms.
Cold glazing— it's either a single 4mm frame glass or a single-camera glass pack with regular glass.
The warm glassAnd the main thing is not the number of cameras, but the type of windows.
- ✔ What is it? Multifunctional glassoutside — reflects heat back into the room in the winter and doesn 't let heat through in the summer
- ✔ What is it? I-glassInside is the thinnest coating that works like a thermos: it doesn't release heat outside.
- ✔ What is it?Two air chambers between three glass — additional barrier for cold and noise
The bottom line is, it's getting warmer on the balcony.5 and 8 degreesIn winter, the condensate disappears, the carriage goes out.

What exactly am I doing step by step
1
I'm dismantling old glass or glass packages. Careful, no damage to the frames, no dirt or construction waste.
2 of the
I'll measure the exact dimensions of each hole. Every glass pack is made to your size.
3 of the
I'm ordering a new two-chamber glass package. The formula is 4mm + 16mm camera + 4mm glass + 16mm camera + 4mm i-glass.
4 of them
I'm setting the same PvH-rams. If the frames are in a normal state, they stay.
5 of them
I'm fixing it with new sticks. Rubber sealants are tight.
Example of cost calculation
Let's say you have three windows on the balcony: 1.2 meters high, 2.5 meters wide.
| Calculation for a typical balcony |
What it means |
| The area of the glazing |
1,2 m × 2,5 m = 3 m² |
| The price per m² |
240 roubles. |
| Tone (if needed) |
+50 and 100 rubles / m² |
| Total for the balcony |
720 rubles. |
For 720 rubles you get a warm balcony with two-chamber energy-saving glass on the key. Firms for the same thing ask for 400 rubles/m² — that is 1200 rubles for the same balcony. The difference is in the intermediaries. I order glass packages directly from the factory.
The questions I'm asked the most
Will my profile fit into a two-room package?
Most PVC frames (Rehau, KBE, Veka, Salamander, etc.) are designed for a glass pack of up to 40 mm thick. If you had a single-camera 24 mm, a double 36 mm would fit into the same static.
Won't the window sweat even harder after the replacement?
The cold pack freezes and condenses. The warm pack with the i-glass has a warm inner glass, and the temperature is close to the room.
Can I do a toner?
Yes, any: gray, bronze, green, blue, black, mirror, matte. The fee is small — depends on the tone, I specify when ordering. Standard +50–100 rubles./m².
240 rubles per month, that's exactly what it's worth.
Includes: new two-room glass pack with i-glass and multifunctional glass, sticky and sealing, dismantling old glass, installing new, cleaning.
What if he's gonna act after the frame's replaced?
The new package is 5 pounds heavier than the old one, but the balcony PVC frames are designed to weigh up to 40 pounds, and the difference is not critical.
Can we just replace glass with energy-saving glass without touching the pack?
No. The energy-saving coating only works inside the sealed package. It's impossible to just put i-glass in an old package; it's sealed off. It's just a complete replacement. But 240 rubles per m² is cheaper than many people charge for a simple glass replacement.
What's the new package's shelf life?
15 years. i-cover is inside the chamber, it doesn't wash and it doesn't blush.
A real case from practice
From the practice of a master
The client lived on the last floor. The balcony was used as a storage room. In winter there was a minus 5 at the street.
I replaced three glass packets with a total area of 3.6 m.«On the balcony now plus 10 minus 20 on the street.- What?
One time to do right is cheaper than enduring the cold every winter.
