Why sash windows perform better than you think
Many homes are fitted with uPVC casement windows. Sliding sash windows are often seen as old fashioned and only suited to period property installations. In general, a lot of people are under the impression that casement windows provide better levels of performance than sash windows in terms of security, energy efficiency and durability. If you thought that sash windows were a purely aesthetic choice, you might be surprised to find out that they actually perform extremely well.
The Rose Collection uPVC sash windows are designed to both emulate the aesthetics of traditional timber windows and provide outstanding levels of performance. Let’s take a closer look at how the Rose Collection achieves these high levels of performance.
The Ultimate Rose: the pinnacle of sash window performance
The Ultimate Rose is the premium model in our sash window range. It is stylish, authentic and high performing, making it perfect for both period property and more contemporary installations. With the Ultimate Rose, you get:
- WER thermal efficiency ‘A’ rating
- Durable, robust and low maintenance uPVC construction
- High security locking systems as standard
- Double opening design with traditional sliding opening and tilt-in functionality for easy cleaning
- Torsion balances for a smooth but firm opening every time
- 28mm insulated double glazed unit filled with Argon gas
- Triple-sealed concealed brush piles
As you can see, Rose Collection sash windows truly are a modern alternative to traditional sash windows.
