(5) Warm edge spacer bars Low conductivity spacer bars further help to minimise heat loss and combat condensation levels on the inner pane.
(6) Drainage and ventilation channels help prevent double glazing from misting
Drainage and ventilation channels protect against the failure of double glazed units which occurs in conventional systems when glazing units are allowed to sit in water that has become trapped within the frame.
(7) Factory Applied Factory applied micro-porous coatings provide maximum protection with minimal maintenance
Factory painting prior to assembly best protects timber from moisture absorption and is essential for longevity. All our products receive a base coat of timber preservative, then a primer coat, followed by two coats of micro-porous paint. Broadly speaking one should expect our coatings to last from five to eight years without the need for re-treatment. Redecoration itself is a very simple task as there is no sanding down or preparation required. An average window should take about thirty minutes to re-decorate.
