Until they are made double paned and sealed, as the UK writer above indicates, (which would also make them even more expensive), they are not practical from an energy efficient standard, so really only make sense in a mild climate.

The single glass panes do not offer much insulation and are not energy efficient. I really love the look!<br />xo<br />LoiWoodside Parkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13981644571968878448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3422669494853882483.post-25695397813594621812013-10-03T06:55:59.904-04:002013-10-03T06:55:59.904-04:00Holly..what a gorgeous post!

As manufacturers and exporters (from the UK) of these since 1849 we have seen the fashion trends come and go, but the beauty of steel windows still prevails! I see some comments about single pane cold windows. These are nowadays fully hot dipped galvanized (by us anyway!), factory polyester powder coated and double glazed.
