WHAT IS UPVC?
Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride, or UPVC for short, is a low-maintenance building material that can be used to replace outdated single-glazed windows or as an alternative to painted wood, aluminum, and other materials. It is mostly used for window sills and frames when double glazing is used in new construction.Because it is sturdy, lightweight, and requires little upkeep, UPVC is a popular option among homeowners.Beyond windows, it can be used for a variety of other things, such as fascia, siding, and weatherboarding. This same material, which is used for waste pipes, drain pipes, guttering, and downpipes, has virtually completely replaced cast iron in plumbing and drainage applications. The term “Roofline” is frequently used to refer to all of these goods together in the home improvement business.
WHY CHOOSE UPVC FOR YOUR WINDOWS?
UPVC gives amazing strength and versatility. It is a cheaper alternative to expensive hardwood timber and aluminium. It is a popular material due to its durability and uPVC being a cost-effective option.The best part of uPVC is low maintenance which comes from being manufactured using vinyl polymer which is bound to chlorine atoms so the window frames are not actually plastic and can work well with steel. This means that homeowners won’t have high ongoing costs.
ARE UPVC WINDOWS ENERGY EFFICIENT?
Thinking to save Energy, UPVC is the perfect choice, as energy rated UPVC windows are extremely thermally efficient. They have a very low thermal conductivity as a result of the type of materials used in manufacturing. This stops heat escaping as easily as it can do with some other building materials.The main advantage of all high quality UPVC products is that they never need painting, plus the only maintenance they really tend to need is a wipe down with a damp cloth once every couple of years or so.
WHAT WINDOW STYLES ARE AVAILABLE IN UPVC?
