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
