Windows

Advantage Plus – Fixed Lite

Fixed. A fixed window is a window that cannot be opened, whose function is limited to allowing light to enter (unlike an unfixed window, which can open and close). Clerestory windows in church architecture are often fixed. Transom windows may be fixed or operable.

Key Features

• Vinyl interior and exterior
• Very functional, easy operation
• Low maintenance
• Superior security and energy efficiency

Single & Double Hung

A common definition of the term “single window” is: “A facility that allows parties involved in trade and transport to lodge standardized information and documents with a single entry point to fulfill all import, export, and transit-related regulatory requirements.

A double–hung window has two stacked, moveable sashes (the part of the windowthat holds the pane). This allows the window to slide down from the top and up from the bottom meaning both sashes can open at the same time.

Key Features

• Vinyl interior and exterior
• Very functional, easy operation
• Low maintenance
• Superior security and energy efficiency

Advantage – Horizontal Slider/ Double Slider

Double slider windows offer the same versatility and low maintenance as sliderwindows, but with increased airflow. Instead of just one sash, the double slider features two movable sashes that slide in for maximum control over ventilation. Both sashes pop out for easy cleaning and maintenance.

Key Features

• Vinyl interior and exterior
• Very functional, easy operation
• Low maintenance
• Superior security and energy efficiency

Advantage Plus – Bay & Bow

The advantages of bay windows are: Add value to the home. Bay windows are often chosen for their aesthetic appeal. Allow natural light to enter. Bay windows have panoramic views, so they allow more natural light to enter from multiple directions. Good ventilation. Versatility.

Key Features

More natural light.

Excellent view.

Clean, modern look.

Increased curb appeal adding value to your home.

Excellent ventilation.

Advantage Plus – Decorative

The use of decorative glass can range from doors (especially shower doors) to stairways and hand rails, desks, tables and walls. Furniture made of glass is classified as decorative glass, as are shelves and floors made of glass.

Key Features

• Vinyl interior and exterior
• Very functional, easy operation
• Low maintenance
• Superior security and energy efficiency

Solar Heat Gain Windows WB-15/2

 

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The concept behind a passive house works only with a refined thermal insulation that limits the annual heating needs to 15 kWh per square metre of living space. This allows a building to be heated alone from passive energy sources without the need for a separate heating system. One of the most important components here is the window system. The slender profile sight lines presented by TROCAL 76 with the aluminium cover not only allow a modern design with large glazed areas, but also increase solar heat gains.

The passive house institute ift in Rosenheim calculates the thermal insulation value for the PVC-U window frame in accordance with DIN EN ISO 10077-2. The condition here is a value U_f less than 0.96 W/(m²K). Ultimately, though, it is not solely the U_f value that decides the passive house suitability of a window, but also the U_w value, i.e. the thermal insulation values for the whole window. This must be ≤ 0.8 W/(m²K).

Thanks to the two upgrade technologies AluClip Pro and proEnergyTec, the double seal system 76 exhibits a U_f value of 0.93 W(m²K), fulfilling precisely these passive house requirements under the ift guideline WA-15/2.

76 AluClip Pro gives you the best of two worlds: PVC-U and aluminium in the one innovative system. PVC-U provides the optimal thermal and sound insulation in addition to functional reliability. Aluminium presents a convincing elegance, the best weather resistance, and a wide range of colours. Yet another advantage – the aluminium takes over the load bearing functions, so no steel reinforcements are needed in the window sash.

In the passive house variant complying with ift guideline WA-15/2, the reinforcing chambers in both the sash and the frame were foam filled with proEnergyTec. This technology achieves the highest thermal insulation values and can be recycled easily at a later date.

Our greenline principle: energy efficient window systems, lead free stabilisers in virgin material, and intelligent recycling concepts provide that extra sustainability.
