The frame of a window plays a decisive role in promoting energy and cost-efficient thermal insulation, and window profiles made of PVC score top marks when compared with aluminium or wooden windows. They have better insulation values and are able to reduce energy and heating costs. However, one of the main benefits of uPVC joinery is their minimal maintenance costs.

 

Unlike timber framed windows and doors that require regular maintenance uPVC framed windows and doors need little maintenance. uPVC windows and doors from Eco Doors & Windows will keep their shining bright look for very long time.

 

uPVC windows are not affected by the weather or by air pollution. Salt air, acid rain, industrial pollution, pesticides, lawn fertilizers, smog and other everyday air contaminants cause no discoloration or structural damage to uPVC windows, and uPVC windows and doors won’t rot, chip, peel or flake.

 

There are a number of advantages to choosing uPVC windows for your home. One of the major ones is that they require such a small amount of maintenance. Once fitted, you really have to do very little indeed compared to wooden framed windows, for example, which need to be painted every few years to keep them in mint condition. Just a wipe over with a damp cloth is all that is required to keep your window installation looking like it did on day one. This can be done simply and easily when you clean the glazing elements, of course, so virtually no maintenance is needed for the uPVC frames themselves.

 

Eco Doors & Windows’ uPVC profiles are built to withstand 40 years or more in New Zealand conditions. UV does not affect the uPVC, and the frames are very low maintenance, so for more information on double glazing Wellington, aluminium windows Wellington and Wellington windows and doors please go to https://ecowindows.nz/
