The Hybrid Window System is an 83mm high performance window system that achieves very high thermal insulation values providing low U Values well below the current and anticipated future Building Regulation requirements. Comprising the insulating benefits of timber on the inside and the durability of aluminium on the outside, the system includes top hung, side hung, Tilt and Turn, Overswing and fixed light combination windows.
Construction Hybrid Fixed Lights are constructed using mitred joints on both the aluminium and the timber frames. Using a mechanical corner joint on the aluminium and patented dovetail keys on the timber enables the frames to be constructed without the need for complicated production processes. Integral transoms and mullions are inserted by scribing the ends and screw fix to the frame. They can be constructed with a number of opening light configurations from the Casement, Tilt and Turn and the Overswing range.
Performance
The Hybrid Window has been tested in accordance with BS6375 Part 1 : 2004 (performance of windows and doors – classification of weathertightness and guidance on selection and specification). Test reports are available.
Glazing
Double glazing is standard and should be carried out to the recommendations of BS6262. A variety of glass options are available to maximise thermal and acoustic performance. The glazing is inserted between the aluminium and timber frames for maximum security.
Finishes
The external aluminium is available in anodised or powder coat. The internal timber is available in clear lacquered or water based paint.
