Above all, these windows are incredibly low cost in comparison to timber windows.
uPVC windows are an affordable solution to your window needs
PROPERTY | ALUMINUM | WOOD | UPVC |
---|---|---|---|
Surface Quality | Anodizing Wears Out And Corrosion Sets It. | Requires Regular Up Keeping | The Surface Quality Is Maintained Through Out Its Useful Life. |
Thermal Insulation | Poor, Being A Metal It Has A Poor Thermal Insulation, And High Thermal Conductivity. | Fair | Very Good, Heat Losses Are Reduced Due To Wider Profile Depth & Multi Chamber Section 8, Low K Value. |
Fire Resistance | Excellent | Poor | Excellent |
Acoustic Insulation | Poor, The Mechanically Joint Corners Renders Very Poor Result From Acoustic Insulation Angle. | Fair | Excellent, The Multi Chamber Sealed Cavities And Welded Corners Offers Excellent Acoustic Insulating Properties. |
Dimensional Accuracy | Poor, They Are Fabricated Locally, Hence Poor Quality And Non Uniformity. | Fair | Excellent, They Are Factory Produced On Sophisticated Machine Hence Offer Uniform Quality. |
Conservation Of Energy | Require 7.5 Times The Energy Than That Required To Manufacture Pvc. | - | Excellent |
Preservation Of Natural Forest Wealth | Excellent | Poor | Excellent |
Maintenance | Nil | Require Regular Painting & Polishing | Nil |
