Aluminium windows FAQ
Let us answer the most frequently asked questions:
- How are they made more energy efficient?
Our leading suppliers know how to deal with this material’s conductivity. Heat transfer is reduced with the latest technological advances, including:
- A strip of polyamide (polymer strip) is inserted into the frame to act as a thermal break, blocking cold/heat from transferring in either direction
- Argon gas (which is denser than air) is fitted into the sealed units to help with energy efficiency
- Can they be given a timber appearance?
Yes. By fitting them into a timber sub-frame first, you can achieve that traditional look. Thanks to the slimness, it balances out the slight restricted sightlines.
- What glazing options are there?
Currently, upto double glazing is possible. As this style of windows is a recent, modern development in the industry, triple glazing is not available at present.
