0.8 U VALUE SOLUTION

THE SIMPLE NO COMPROMISE WAY TO LOW U VALUES

REHAU have a triple glazed casement solution with a U-value of 0.8 which can be fabricated using the REHAU S706 or REHAU Edge 70mm systems. In developing its 0.8 window REHAU have introduced a solution which uses proven off the shelf components and requires no special machining or tooling set up.

The solution is based around our hugely popular REHAU S706 or REHAU Edge profile with a triple glazed Argon filled 44mm sealed unit. A standard bead from the REHAU range, which has been proven for many years with patio door panes up to 1200mm x 2100mm, neatly accommodates the glass without compromising the clear sightlines of the window.

0.8 U Value Triple Glazed Solution

The open out casement window has been fully weather tested to 600Pa, has achieved security accreditation to BS7950 and is fully certified to the 0.8 U-value at the BRE standard window size of 1230mm x 1480mm.

The really clever part about the window is a new REHAU THERMO foam module which can be applied post manufacture or on site. REHAU THERMO was originally developed in Germany using a moulded foam material which is easy to handle and dust free when cut and provides the additional thermal efficiency necessary for the window to achieve the 0.8 U-value.

This simple and cost effective solution means that REHAU's 70mm customers can now add a 0.8 triple glazed window to their product portfolio. There are no compromises to be made in terms of window aesthetics or sightlines, weather performance or security.
REHAU has calculated the cost savings for this triple glazed 0.8 U-value window over the conventional solution using a Krypton filled sealed unit and estimates that a typical window glass costs is up to 50% less using the REHAU solution. This offers a very significant advantage to house builders and developers looking to meet energy efficiency regulations to domestic consumers who appreciate the benefits of triple glazing but without a significant price premium.
