South Morang is one of Melbourne’s outer-north growth suburbs, in the City of Whittlesea, built out largely from the 1990s onward around the Plenty Gorge and the Plenty Valley centre. Its housing is dominated by large, double-storey project homes on open estate blocks, most fitted from new with builder-grade aluminium windows that conduct heat and seal poorly. Double glazing in South Morang answers the conditions that come with that: hot, exposed summers with little mature tree cover, cold winters, and west-facing upper storeys that bake through the afternoon. APS manufactures German-engineered uPVC double glazed windows and doors that replace thin builder-spec aluminium with a sealed, insulating frame, so a South Morang home holds a steadier temperature year-round on far less heating and cooling.
The typical South Morang project is an upgrade from the aluminium windows a volume builder installed when the estate went up. Those frames are a thermal weak point: aluminium conducts heat readily, and the single-glazed units do little against summer sun or winter cold. Replacing them with uPVC double glazing addresses the biggest comfort complaint in these homes directly, especially in the open-plan living areas and the west-facing upstairs rooms.
Awning windows are useful in South Morang’s double-storey layouts. Set high in stairwells and over living areas, they can be left open to vent built-up heat in the evening while staying weathertight, helping flush the summer warmth that collects in two-storey estate homes. Paired with Low-E double-glazed units, they cut the radiant heat load coming through large, exposed elevations.
Every frame is made to measure in APS’s own factory, sized to the existing estate openings. If you are budgeting the work, our Melbourne double glazing cost and pricing guide sets out what a project like this typically runs.

South Morang’s newness is exactly why double glazing pays off here. The estates were built quickly and to price, on open blocks with limited established tree cover, which leaves homes fully exposed to summer sun and to the temperature swings of the outer-north. Large windows and high ceilings look great but turn into heat collectors when they are single-glazed in conducting aluminium frames. Owners notice it most as upstairs rooms that are unbearable on summer afternoons and a house that is expensive to cool.
A double-glazed uPVC unit changes the equation. The Low-E coating reflects a large share of the radiant heat before it enters, the sealed air gap slows transfer in both directions, and the multi-chamber frame removes the aluminium thermal bridge. The same upgrade holds heat in through the genuinely cold Whittlesea winters. Homes near Plenty Road and the freeway corridor also gain a noticeable drop in traffic noise. Many of these projects qualify for the Victorian Energy Upgrades rebate, and as a registered provider APS handles the VEU rebate paperwork for you.

For comfort and energy use, usually yes. The aluminium windows fitted to South Morang’s project homes conduct heat and were rarely double-glazed, so they are a major source of summer heat gain and winter loss. Replacing them with uPVC double glazing is one of the most effective upgrades available for these homes, and it is sized to your existing openings.
It makes a substantial difference. West-facing upper storeys in South Morang take long, direct afternoon sun, and a Low-E double-glazed unit reflects much of that radiant heat before it reaches the inside glass. Combined with high-set awning windows that vent trapped heat in the evening, it brings these rooms back to a usable temperature.
Yes. The outer-north runs colder winters than the inner suburbs, and single-glazed builder windows lose heat quickly. A sealed double-glazed uPVC unit holds warmth inside, so the same upgrade that controls summer heat also cuts winter heating, giving a steadier indoor temperature across the year.
Yes. A sealed double-glazed uPVC window blocks more traffic noise than the single-pane aluminium fitted to most estate homes, particularly the constant hum from Plenty Road and the freeway corridor. Matching the right glass thickness to the window style improves the result on the most exposed elevations.
