Retrofitting Glass in Northcote – Reid Street Upgrade

Sealasash recently completed a Reid Street project in Northcote, upgrading original sash windows with Viridian EnergyTech Glass and draught sealing. The result was a 38% improvement in energy efficiency and a home that feels warmer, quieter, and more comfortable.

Sealasash recently completed a project on Reid Street, Northcote, Victoria, where the original double-hung sash windows were upgraded with Viridian EnergyTech Glass and fitted with our professional draught sealing system.

The homeowners noticed an immediate difference. The outdated panes and tired seals had been allowing heat to escape and draughts to enter. With the new retrofitted glass and precision draught sealing, their home now enjoys a 38% boost in energy efficiency, creating a space that is warmer, quieter, and far more comfortable all year round.

Why Retrofitting Glass Makes Sense

Replacing windows isn’t always necessary. Many homes in Melbourne, particularly in suburbs like Northcote, can benefit from:

  • Retrofitted glass that improves thermal performance while keeping the original timber frames
  • Draught sealing that blocks air leaks and stops heat loss
  • Lower energy bills and greater year-round comfort
  • Retaining the charm of heritage sash windows while upgrading performance

This Reid Street project demonstrates how retrofitting glass and sealing against draughts delivers measurable results without changing the look of the home.
