Heat Break Airtight Exterior Aluminium Frame Casement Window Double Glazed

Double Glazed Heat Break Aluminium Airtight Exterior Casement Window

Product Description:

Double glazed heat break aluminium airtight exterior casement window is a high-performance window designed for superior energy efficiency, security, and sound insulation. This type of window combines several key features to create an effective barrier between your home's interior and the outside environment.

Here's a breakdown of the key terms:

1. Double Glazed: This refers to the window's glass unit. It consists of two panes of glass with a sealed space in between. This space is often filled with an inert gas like argon or krypton, which is a better insulator than air. This design significantly reduces heat transfer, helping to keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It also provides excellent sound insulation.
2. Heat Break (or Thermal Break): This is a crucial component, especially for aluminum frames. Aluminum is a highly conductive material, meaning it easily transfers heat and cold. A thermal break is an insulating material, typically a piece of polyamide (PA66), that is placed within the aluminum frame extrusion. This barrier effectively separates the inner and outer parts of the frame, preventing the flow of thermal energy and "breaking the thermal bridge." Without a thermal break, a double-glazed window could lose a significant amount of its energy efficiency through the frame itself.
3. Airtight: An airtight window has a very low air leakage rating. This is achieved through a multi-point locking mechanism and high-quality seals that create uniform compression against the frame when the window is closed. An airtight seal is essential for preventing drafts, which are a major source of energy loss.
4. Casement Window: This refers to the window style. A casement window is hinged on the side and opens outward, similar to a door. This design is known for its superior sealing capabilities compared to sliding windows because the sash presses firmly against the frame when closed.
