FAKRO
Another trusted brand featured in our roof window collection is FAKRO.
Four reasons why you might wish to choose Fakro windows:
To select the ideal window for your space, start by determining the pitch of your roof. For pitched roofs, the most popular choice is a center pivot window, offering both style and functionality. Alternatively, a top-hung window may suit your preferences for a different look and feel.
With Fakro you can choose between 4 standard finishes:
Natural pine
The window durability is acquired by using specially selected high quality pinewood, vacuum impregnated and lacquered several times.
White acrylic
Wooden core is coated with white acrylic layer to create a white, aesthetic look ideal for day rooms with lower levels of humidity.
White polyurethane
Our wooden windows are coated with polyurethane varnish to create a durable and perfectly smooth surface. This makes them ideal to be installed in rooms with periodically elevated humidity levels (kitchens, bathrooms).
White uPVC
Other option are aluminium-plastic structure windows with multi-chamber PVC profiles and strengthened from the inside with galvanised steel.
The plastic used in the window does not absorb moisture and the window itself is durable and corrosion free. As such, they are intended to be installed in rooms where elevated humidity levels are maintained for a long time (bathrooms, laundries). Externally, the window is covered with pressed profiles from aluminium sheet coated with modified grey-brown polyester resistant to weather conditions.
We also offer conservation windows, designed specifically for properties located in conservation areas. If you're unsure whether your property qualifies, your local authority can provide guidance and advice on this matter.
The next step is to choose between manual and electric roof windows. Electric windows are ideal for hard-to-reach areas and come equipped with a rain sensor that automatically closes the window at the first sign of rain, offering added convenience and peace of mind.
In terms of glazing, you can choose between double, triple or even quadruple glazing for a maximum energy efficiency.
FAKRO designs provide a larger glazing area and have made their windows the most efficient in terms of provision of natural daylight. In addition to greatly enhancing the loft space environment, innovative aspects of Fakro windows such as an automatic air inlet ensure that the optimum level of fresh air is provided without unnecessary heat loss.
The pioneering topSafe® system greatly increased the standard of burglary resistance while the use of environmentally sustainable technologies has enabled the creation of the most thermally efficient roof window in the world, the FTT U8 Thermo.
