Product Information

Full details

This Crystal LH Side Hung Black and White Clear Double Glazed Window is designed for homeowners seeking to enhance natural light and improve energy efficiency. Its key benefit is providing excellent insulation with a low U-value, while the secure espag locking system offers peace of mind. A potential caveat is its fixed size, requiring precise measurement for installation. This window features robust uPVC construction, double glazing with a low E glass unit, and a trickle vent for continuous fresh air circulation. It includes a handle, PVC cill, and glazing packers for straightforward installation.

FAQs

What does 'LH Side Hung' mean?

'LH' stands for Left Hand, meaning the window opens outwards from the left side when viewed from the outside. 'Side Hung' indicates the opening mechanism is hinged on one side.

What is a U-Value, and why is 1.4 W/m2K good?

U-Value measures how effectively a window prevents heat transfer. A lower U-Value indicates better insulation. A U-Value of 1.4 W/m2K is considered very good for double glazing, contributing to a warmer home and lower energy bills.

What is an espag locking system?

An espagnolette (espag) locking system is a multi-point locking mechanism that engages shoots or bolts into the frame at various points, providing enhanced security when the handle is turned.

Can this window be installed in any wall type?

This window is designed for uPVC frame installations. It is compatible with most standard building materials like brick, blockwork, and timber frames, provided the opening is correctly prepared for a uPVC window.

Does the window come with fitting instructions?

The window includes essential accessories like a handle, PVC cill, and glazing packers. While specific fitting instructions may vary based on installation context, these components facilitate a standard installation process. Professional installation is recommended.

How do I clean the window?

Clean the uPVC frame and glass with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the surfaces.

What is the purpose of the trickle vent?

The trickle vent allows for background ventilation, providing a continuous flow of fresh air into the room even when the window is closed and locked. This helps to reduce condensation and improve air quality.

Troubleshooting

Window is difficult to open or close.

Check for obstructions around the frame. Ensure the espag locking mechanism is fully disengaged. The frame may have settled; check if glazing packers need adjustment or if the frame requires minor adjustment.

Drafts are noticeable around the window.

Verify that the espag locking system is fully engaged. Check the seals around the frame and ensure they are intact and properly seated. Re-apply sealant to the external frame if necessary. Ensure correct installation with appropriate packers.

Condensation appears between the glass panes.

This indicates a failure of the sealed double-glazed unit. The unit will need to be replaced.

The trickle vent is blocked or not functioning correctly.

Remove the trickle vent cover and clean out any debris or obstructions. Ensure the vent is correctly seated and the internal mechanism is free to move.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent thermal performance with A-rated efficiency and low U-value.
  • Enhanced security features with the espag locking system.
  • Durable and low-maintenance uPVC construction.
  • Improves home comfort by reducing drafts and noise.
  • Includes essential accessories for straightforward fitting.

Cons

  • Fixed dimensions (610 x 1190mm) may not suit all openings without modification.
  • Left-hand opening is specific and may not be suitable for all room layouts.
  • Clear glazing provides no privacy, making it less suitable for exposed areas without additional measures.
  • Professional installation may be recommended for optimal performance and sealing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure the rough opening is measured accurately to match the window dimensions (610 x 1190mm).
  2. Prepare the opening, ensuring it is level and square.
  3. Install the included PVC cill first, using appropriate fixings.
  4. Position the window unit, ensuring it is plumb and level.
  5. Use the provided glazing packers to achieve a perfect fit and secure the frame.
  6. Secure the window frame into the wall opening using suitable screws or fixings (not included).
  7. Install the white handle onto the espag locking mechanism.
  8. Seal around the external frame with appropriate weatherproofing sealant.

Compatibility:

This window is designed for uPVC frame installations. Ensure compatibility with your existing wall structure (brick, render, etc.). The left-hand opening is a fixed configuration.

Care:

  • Clean the uPVC frame and glass regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Wipe down the espag locking mechanism occasionally with a silicone-based lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
  • Check the trickle vent for blockages and clean as needed.
