Is It Worth Getting Aluminium Windows?

With multiple materials available to create new windows, homeowners may be wondering whether it is worth getting aluminium windows. When you are considering replacing and upgrading your windows, you need to decide between various options for the material of the frames, between uPVC, aluminium or timber. Aluminium is typically more of an initial investment than uPVC, but it is definitely worth it as the quality and value is just so much higher. Aluminium window profiles have developed and evolved so much in recent years in terms of their affordability, durability and efficiency – leading to a massive upswing in popularity. We have put together a beginner’s guide to aluminium windows and all of the things that make them such a worthwhile investment for your next project!

Aluminium windows benefits Nottingham

Thermal Efficiency 

High quality aluminium window profiles are incredibly thermally efficient, as aluminium is a low density material and a natural insulator. Our manufacturers – Origin, Schuco and the Residence Collection – craft innovative aluminium window profiles with a polyamide thermal break in the frame to trap tiny pockets of warm air and prevent unnecessary heat loss. Aluminium windows achieve a higher energy rating than uPVC windows, which is demonstrative of their superior efficiency. 

By better insulating the home, aluminium windows can help to reduce the unnecessary heat loss through the windows of the home, lowering energy consumption and heating bills whilst also reducing carbon emissions! At a time when energy costs are climbing ever higher and the effects of global warming are becoming increasingly evident, this enhanced insulation is of massive importance and can hugely benefit homeowners across the country. Admittedly, aluminium windows can be more expensive upfront when compared to uPVC windows, but these costs have the potential to be more than recouped over the course of their lifetime thanks to the improved energy efficiency and subsequent reduction in heating bills. 

Inherent Strength 

Aluminium is inherently strong, boasting an impressive volume to weight ratio. This means that it is a lightweight material but incredibly difficult to dent or damage. This makes aluminium perfect for home installations as it provides superior security to the property. 

Aluminium is able to withstand physical force from potential intruders and will not warp or decay over time. The aluminium windows we supply also have integrated multipoint locking systems approved by both PAS 24 and Secured By Design to provide optimal security. Homeowners can enjoy full peace of mind, knowing that their windows are working to protect their property for years to come.

Quality Now And Always

Aluminium is better able to resist the damaging effects of the elements, without rotting or warping as a result of heavy rainfall or strong winds. Your aluminium windows are sure to retain their quality appearance and continue to look fresh and new for years to come with minimal maintenance. When it does eventually come time to replace your windows, several decades from now, the aluminium is fully recyclable. Unlike uPVC, aluminium doesn’t need to end up in landfill. Our windows will continue to serve in one way or another for generations. 

Stylish Aesthetic

Aluminium window profiles boast some of the slimmest frames on the market. This is fantastic for keeping up with the minimalistic aesthetics that are so popular and timeless, with slender profiles allowing for more natural light and unobstructed views to create a brighter and more welcoming home. Slimline window profiles are an excellent way to illuminate and revitalise a previously dim and shadowy space and aluminium has the inherent qualities to support this design without unsightly reinforcements. Our aluminium windows enable you to get the very best out of your space.
