Premier Windows is pleased to introduce the Aluplast Building Fin, an innovative advancement in window installation for timber-frame new-build homes.
This state-of-the-art system, seamlessly integrated with the Aluplast window system, offers a range of significant benefits, including streamlined installation, enhanced thermal performance, superior weather resistance, and versatile setback options.
Let’s breakdown why this innovative system is setting new standards in window installation.
What Is The Aluplast Building Fin?
The Aluplast Building Fin is a specialised component designed to enhance the installation process and performance of windows in timber-frame structures.
Developed as an addition to the Aluplast window system, the Building Fin offers a pre-formed lip that sits precisely against the timber frame, creating a more efficient installation process.
Benefits Of The Aluplast Building Fin
Designed to meet the high standards of modern architecture, the new Building Fin delivers aesthetics, durability, and energy efficiency, making it an ideal choice for architects, homeowners, and builders alike. Here’s a breakdown of the key benefits:
1. A more Efficient Installation Process
The streamlined installation process is made possible by the pre-formed lip, which fits neatly against the timber frame, significantly reducing the need for extra cutting during installation. This feature enables faster installation times and ensures a snug fit with minimal gaps, reducing air infiltration and enhancing the building’s energy efficiency. As a result, installers can deliver a quick and reliable solution with precise on-site installation and minimal material waste.
2. Exceptional Thermal Performance
When paired with uPVC Aluplast windows, the Building Fin effectively eliminates thermal bridging between the window and wall structure, providing outstanding insulation. This guarantees a constant temperature inside, which lowers heating and air-conditioning expenses. Aluplast windows are designed to save energy, and with the Building Fin, they help architects and builders take energy efficiency and sustainability to a new level.
3. Unmatched Weather Resistance and Airtight Protection
The Building Fin serves as an additional barrier against water and air infiltration, offering exceptional weather resistance around the window frame. This protective layer shields the timber frame from harsh environmental conditions, enhancing the durability of the window installation. A strong seal benefits the homeowner by providing protection from weather extremes which is vital for a long-lasting install.
4. Perfect Compatibility with Aluplast Windows
Premier Windows’ Aluplast windows are renowned for their durability, thermal efficiency, and contemporary aesthetic. The addition of the Building Fin further ensures precise alignment and fit, enhancing the thermal insulation properties of Aluplast’s multi-chambered frame design. Coupled, this combination delivers lower energy costs and better thermal performance for homeowners over time, making this combination a good choice for timber-framed new builds.
5. Flexible Setback Options for Customised Installations
The Aluplast Building Fin allows for a variety of setbacks, giving the installer the flexibility to install the window in the best location in the timber frame wall to meet different architectural styles or insulation methods. Each project varies for its specifications, climate, and aesthetics, and these setback options allow installations to achieve thermal efficiency and visual appeal.
Understanding Setback Options
Understanding the different setback options available with the Building Fin can help installers and designers choose the right fit for each project:
Each setback choice allows installers to tailor the installation to the project’s specific needs, balancing functionality with aesthetic appeal for a practical and visually pleasing outcome.
