Advantages of Prominance uPVC Windows Vs Aluminium Windows

uPVC Windows Vs Aluminium Windows
Description | uPVC | Aluminium |
Extreme weather resistance(UV) | Prominance windows are made of the tropical blend. Adequate Tio2 dosage for extreme UV resistant property | Prone to fade since performance of powder coat/ the anodized material cannot comply longer UV resistance. |
Oxidation and Corrosion | UPVC is highly resistive against corrosion and oxidation. | Cavity and corrosion issue due to oxidation & White residue formation. |
Thermal loss and Interior condensation | Excellent insulation. Extremely suitable for all climatic conditions. | Poor performance in the cold and hot region. Condensation and frosting issue. |
Stability | Very good dimensional stability. Versatile design flexibility. | Fair stability Limited design options. |
Insulation property | Excellent insulator | Poor insulator |
Energy | Less energy consumption during conversion | More energy consumption during conversion |
Evacuation | Very less effort during escape due to fire | Very difficult process to escape due to high melting temperature. |
Maintenance | Rots free / Cavity / oxidation free | Frequent maintenance required |
U value | 2.1 W/m2k (High thermal insulation) | 3.68 W/m2k (Low thermal insulation) |
Fire resistance | Very good self-extinguishing property | Melting temperature is high |
