'These top or side swung, triple glazed FSC windows, deliver up to 2.5 times the thermal performance of some new windows and have centre pane U-values as low as 0.7 W/m2k. Manufactured by Viking in Estonia, with Scandinavian technology and specified widely in the UK, this innovative and cost effective design offers excellent performance with low maintenance.
Argon filled, warm edge spacers, rubber gaskets, metal drip tray and UK ironmongery with FSC laminated timber frames, give a quality bespoke product - full RAL colour matching and short delivery times. Secure by Design certification due on December and lockable ventilation position.
The windows are equivalent to British Fenestration Rating Council A / B, exceeding Best Practice standards adopted by the Energy Savings Trust in 2007, currently a C rating.
