Checkout the advantages of uPVC Windows & Doors and comparison with aluminium window & Door frames.
Bug Mesh Options
Mosquitoes and other bugs are a big menace. To Protect against Insects, We have bug mesh option available for our sliding systems.
Design Freedom
A creative assortment of profiles mixed & matched with combinations like bays, coupled windows, combination windows, etc is our forte.
IAQ
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) can be maintained by avoiding interior energy loss (generally 37% through windows). Prominance windows reduce energy loss by over 30% thereby reducing energy costs.
Excellent Cost Benefit Ratio
uPVC profiles save a lot of costs in terms of maintenance & saving energy when compared to Timber frames which are approximately 40% - 50% more expensive.
Fire Retardant
Prominance windows are fire retardant. During fire, once source of fire is removed, a carbonaceous layer is formed preventing supplying of oxygen and stops the spread.
Durability
Prominance windows do not warp, twist or split. Impact modifiers in our profiles are treated with special additives, thereby making the material extremely long lasting.
Impact Resistance
Prominance windows are uniquely designed and specially formulated to withstand high impacts during handling and installation.
UV Resistance
Prominance windows offer 100% UV resistance with the right amount of TiO2, which helps in retaining whiteness against exposure to the sun.
High Weather Resistance
Prominance windows are specially developed keeping in mind the harsh weather prevalent in South Africa. Long exposures to sun, rain, wind & moisture cannot affect the window quality or durability.
Maintenance Free
Prominance windows are virtually dirt resistant and easy to maintain with normal soap water.
Sound Insulation
Not only do they provide thermal insulation but also special sound insulation. Double glass units can help in sound reduction up to 30 Db.
Termite & Corrosion Resistance
Prominance windows are termite and corrosion resistant. Salts, acids, alkali and waste gases cannot corrode the window systems.
Multiple Series - More Choices
We offer options to combine different varieties of profiles. These can be combined in a single property as they are aesthetically similar and structurally optimal.
Description | uPVC | Aluminium |
---|---|---|
Extreme weather resistance(UV) | Prominance windows are made of the tropical blend. Adequate Tio2 dosage for extreme UV resistant property | Prone to fade since performance of powder coat / the anodized material cannot comply longer UV resistance. |
Oxidation and Corrosion | UPVC is highly resistive against corrosion and
oxidation. | Cavity and corrosion issue due to oxidation & White residue formation. |
Thermal loss and Interior condensation | Excellent insulation.
Extremely suitable for all climatic conditions. | Poor performance in the cold and hot region.
Condensation and frosting issue. |
Stability | Very good dimensional stability.
Versatile design flexibility. | Fair stability
Limited design options. |
Insulation property | Excellent insulator | Poor insulator
|
Energy | Less energy consumption during conversion | More energy consumption during conversion
|
Evacuation | Very less effort during escape due to fire | Very difficult process to escape due to high melting temperature. |
Maintenance | Rots free / Cavity / oxidation free | Frequent maintenance required |
U value | 2.1 W/m2k (High thermal insulation) | 3.68 W/m2k (Low thermal insulation) |
Fire resistance | Very good self-extinguishing property | Melting temperature is high
