The benefits of installing Aluminium Windows
Along with our our range of PVCu windows, Window Wise do a lot of work installing aluminium windows in Sussex.
We now find that a lot of our customers buying aluminium windows are looking to replace their old steel windows.
There are a number of benefits to installing them in your home – here’s a quick run-down:
Versatility & longevity
Unlike wooden windows, aluminium windows will never split, warp, crack or rot. They’re incredibly durable and long lasting – it’s not about how many years they’ll last, but how many decades! You’ll also find they’re extremely weather resistant, suitable from the depths of a cold midwinter to the heights of a gloriously hot summer.
Compared to popular PVCu windows, aluminium windows are much stronger. This means they can be made much thinner and provide a much cleaner profile; therefore reducing sight-lines and maintaining a higher ratio of glass-to-frame that in turn lets more light into your room.
Aluminium windows can also be crafted in an array of types and styles to ensure that the end product fits in perfectly with the look of your house’s exterior. Should you prefer your windows to look like wood or PVCu material, but still have the features of aluminium, this can be taken into account in the design.
Window Wise can produce windows to your specific requirements – any shape, size, style and colour combination is possible.
Saving money on energy bills
Along with being particularly strong and durable, aluminium windows also provide high thermal efficiency.
Our windows come with a unique polyamide thermal break design that helps to improve thermal performance.
In layman’s terms, there’s a piece of material between two parts of the window that conducts up to 1000 times less heat than the aluminium, meaning the heat has a difficult job to try and escape.
As well as saving you money on your heating bills, this design has the added bonus of making the windows much more effective in terms of soundproofing.
Environmental impact
Aluminium is 100 per cent recyclable and sustainable, and is among the most reusable of building materials.
According to the Aluminium Association, recycling the material saves over 90 per cent of the energy needed to make new aluminium! It can go from the scrap-heap to back on the shop floor in another product in as little as 60 days.
Window Wise’s aluminium windows have been designed to bring out the contemporary side of your home. Combining strength, rigidity and slimline appearance, they are the architectural choice for specialist installations and many homes that require aluminium windows in Sussex.
