Rules for acoustic triple glazing in Wales
The rules for replacement windows in Wales are set by Approved Document L for Wales (2022 edition, with 2024 amendments): 1.4 W/m²K, or a Window Energy Rating of band B or better. As in England, replacement windows are a controlled fitting: a competent person scheme installer self-certifies the work, or building control approves it.
Planning: Householder permitted development rules do not cover flats, and councils can remove rights with Article 4 directions. Listed buildings need listed building consent. Check with your council before changing the style or material.
