I have a uPVC external door. As I need more light into the room I need to replace the inner PVC panel to a Double glazed panel. How do I do this. Will change from PVC to Glass reduce themal qualities?

hi yes it will reduce thermal efficiency as heat escape more through glass and a panel normally is insulated between the layers. but u can change from panel to glass what u will need to do is remove the beads around the panel. for this u will require a scraper. i will post a link check it out. then once the beading is removed u will need to measure the panel length and width. also u will need to measure the thickness and take these to a glass dealer. a door requires the glass to be toughened so its not a danger if it ever breaks.
