I agree. I assume they are listed elsewhere in the world.

They're not on the website

I think that the only passive house certified windows in Australia are done by these guys... imported from Europe... likely $3,000/m2 +

When we developed the EcoTech window, we developed at the same time its identical twin with a thermally broken frame fully expecting this to yield a significant improvement in…

No I don't need to check with anyone... the measure is all that matters. I never said that the frames don't contribute to heat loss, every part of a window…

They both supply 38mm and 40mm.

At the end of the day, it is the Uw that the window achieves which decides what the energy performance is, it is not the style, not the configuration, not…

Just had an interesting conversation with a customer who has 2 rooms which are always cold and thinks it is the windows causing that... they are double glazed aluminium. She…

This is a complicated area. I have operated businesses (inside and outside of windows) where global supplier collusion in our tiny market meant that the price paid was nothing to…

So your windows arrive from China, you did your homework and you have certificates of compliance to AS2047 and AS1288. Then your building inspector who is on the ball…

Unusual configuration, you would get more light by combining the highlight with the window below.

2100, 2400 and 2700 are considered standard heights. But that does not mean that every product is available at those sizes. Engineering will likely mean additional cost for larger products.

You're welcome... I guess they don't read...

I know the problem. We install our replacement windows in lots of different building-in situations.
This could have been done differently with a better result.
The fix will be a compromise. Maybe…

In short, there would be no gap, except for say 5mm planned for caulking.

So the job is to close the gap from bricks to sill.
To be honest, the windows don't suit the opening, and should have been measured to set them further forward…

I understand. No sill flap, are these new windows? Are the drain holes under the sill or at the front of the sill? The window could have been set…

Can you take photos in a higher definition so I can enlarge them. Right along the sill would be best. Show me on the pics what you are trying to…

Hi
I am unsure of what you are trying to achieve. You window looks as though it has a sill flap which appears to be closely fitted. Whatever you do, do…

There's no such thing as doors and windows that suit a particular height, it's down to personal taste. I think I would look around the rooms you will live in…

These are generic sash locks you can buy in Bunnings. Find a security screwdriver bit to fit the screws and remove them, then fit new ones.

Find a chippy to quote, then price the doors you want - but these can be the expensive bit.

Yes these can be replicated in Aluminium using decorative bars - we for example put the bars inside the double glazed units. Yes they are expensive because they are produced…

Matt would be the best match to Colorbond. Any good paint is suitable.

I would make all door openings uniform, and have windows set at the same height. I think anything less may impact the sales value.

Yes, my pet gripe is balconies, and the best example is Qld., where balconies go unused. I often think we should lgift the balconies to homeless folk...

Hi
Do you need to upgrade the glazing to meet the energy report due to the changed insulation if you increase the stacker door? Otherwise I would think a low cost…
