Ultra Insulating Windows and Doors
Eco Home Centre has a great relationship with ARU Joinery in Estonia. We can supply their excellent timber doors and windows via our Welsh partners in Port Talbot. Now the lovely people at ARU have developed a brand new ultra insulating range of doors and windows for the Passive House / Code for Sustainable Homes Level 5 and 6 market.
The Nordic Range is made from solid wood so there is no chance of the frames de-laminating. (De-lamination has been a cause for concern on insulated windows and doors as there is an inherent weak point in the structure.) These frames are chunky at 92mm thick, but this is required to house the 52mm deep triple glazed units. The frames, though, do not look over heavy (despite being very heavy!)
The U values achieved are very impressive. The glazing itself gives a Ug of 0.47 and a standard window gives an overall Uw of 0.78. Compare this to the Building Regulations standard of around Uw of 2 and we start to see how well these windows and doors perform.
The Nordic series of products is wide ranging and includes:
- Inward and outward opening doors and windows;
- Sliding patio doors; and
- Folding patio doors
All are also available in aluminium cladding for extra weather protection for those hard to service areas.
So if you are looking for some great high performance, high specification windows or doors then have a look at http://www.arugrupp.ee/window-and-door-production/products/facades-and-conservatories or give us a call.
