INTRODUCTION TO THERMAL BREAK ALUMINUM CASEMENT WINDOWS
Kogen thermal break aluminum casement windows offer a modern design combined with a wide range of superior advantages compared to traditional window systems. From outstanding thermal and acoustic insulation to long-lasting durability, aesthetic appeal, and environmental benefits, these windows are the optimal solution for contemporary buildings and enhanced living standards.
What is a Thermal Break Aluminum Casement Window?
A casement window opens inward or outward via side-hinged sashes. By applying thermal break aluminum technology, the window significantly reduces heat transfer between the indoor and outdoor environments, ensuring cool interiors during summer and warmth during winter.
Using a specially structured polyamide PA66 thermal barrier, these windows minimize thermal conductivity and energy loss, contributing to reduced HVAC consumption and lower greenhouse gas emissions. The design ensures consistent comfort and energy efficiency year-round for both residential and commercial spaces.
Thermal Optimization Principle
- Thermal Break Technology: A polyamide PA66 layer between the aluminum profiles acts as a thermal barrier, minimizing direct heat conduction.
- Insulated Glass Units (IGUs): Double or triple glazing with vacuum or inert gas (e.g., argon) between panes provides superior insulation against conduction and convection. Low-E coatings reflect infrared radiation and reduce solar heat gain.
- Multi-chamber Aluminum Profiles: Internal hollow chambers enhance structural integrity while improving thermal and acoustic performance.
- Sealing Systems: High-quality EPDM gaskets reduce air exchange and thermal loss through convection.
