Energy-efficient Altair Louvre Windows image

Altair Louvre Windows are the only energy-rated louvre windows and can help to enhance the energy efficiency and comfort of a building by offering:

Maximum ventilation

With no fixed panes and blades that open fully horizontally, Altair Louvre Windows welcome fresh, cooling breezes. These cooling breezes reduce the need for power hungry airconditioning systems, thereby helping to save our fragile environment.

Tight sealing

Altair Louvre Windows have an air infiltration rating of 1.5 l/m2/sec which is three times better than the standard required for residential windows. Tight sealing reduces draughts thereby allowing heating and cooling systems to run more efficiently.

Choice of glazing

A variety of energy-efficient glazing options is available to meet local requirements, including toned glass and timber blades for cooling climates and clear low-e glass blades for mixed and heating climates.
