Window Frames


Options for high efficiency high performing window frames include thermally broken aluminium, uPVC and timber – imported European technologies or NZ made. Each has different qualities, values and requirements.

“Each of these choices comes with their own set of considerations, and that is where a reputable and engaged window advisor can greatly assist in making the best choice to suit the individual requirements of the homeowner, having listened to and considered your individual needs, wants and of course budget.”

Andrew Krupa: Koffman Windows

“Heat can also be lost by convection through the cavities and conduction through the frame of the window. A thermally broken window has a non-thermally-conductive material inserted into the aluminium frame in a way that disrupts the transfer of heat. By interrupting the flow of heat through the frame, thermally broken windows significantly reduce heat loss during the colder months and heat gain during the summer months.”
