Installation of frames in Braine-l'Alleud

Grants and tax benefits for your frames in Braine-l'Alleud

Replacing single glazing with high-performance double glazing entitles you to Walloon grants in the Walloon Region. The main condition is to achieve a global Uw coefficient of the frame lower than 1.5 W/m²K, which all our PVC and aluminum frames easily meet. The amount of the grant depends on the household income and is calculated per square meter of glazing replaced.

VAT is reduced to 6% for all frame replacement work in a home over ten years old in Belgium. For a Braine house from the seventies with about ten openings, this reduction represents several hundred euros in direct savings. Avenir Rénovations informs you about the eligibility conditions during the measurement and assists you in the grant application process if necessary.

Frames and thermal comfort in Braine-l'Alleud: what the numbers say

An unmaintained wooden frame with single glazing has a Uw coefficient of about 4 to 5 W/m²K. A recent PVC frame with argon-filled double glazing drops to 1.2 to 1.4 W/m²K. An aluminum frame with thermal break and triple glazing can reach 0.8 W/m²K.

In a Braine house with one hundred square meters of glazed facade, this performance gain represents a reduction in thermal losses through openings of about sixty to seventy percent. This savings is noticeable from the first winter on the heating bill and in the comfort felt in each room. Cold rooms in winter are no longer cold with high-performance frames.

For houses located near the N5, the ring road, or the E19 in Braine-l'Alleud, the acoustic gain from recent double glazing is also very appreciable: thirty decibels of acoustic attenuation with standard double glazing, thirty-eight to forty-two with specific acoustic glazing.
