The cavity refers to the space between the two panes of glass in a double-glazed window. This space is typically filled with air or an inert gas (like argon or krypton) to improve insulation and reduce heat transfer.

  • Typical cavity width: 6mm to 20mm (most standard Double and Triple Glazed Units have either 20mm or 16mm)
  • Purpose: Enhances thermal and acoustic insulation
