Rehau Euroslide Design S920 System Description for Sliding Windows

The Rehau Euroslide Design can be used to make a wide variety of upvc sliding double glazed windows and doors. Three main categories of pvcu window and door design can be fabricated:

  • Horizontal sliding double glazed windows or doors with 2 (two) or more sliding sashes
  • Horizontal sliding double glazed windows or doors with fixed glazing unit
  • Horizontal sliding double glazed windows or doors with flyscreen

Typical design illustrations or photographs of double glazed sliding system windows and doors can be found in the Product Menu or in Gallery.

Sliding Double Glazed Window and Door Frames

There are three frame profiles available

  • Frame 2 with 2 runners, 60mm profile depth
  • Frame 3 with 2 runners, and a flyscreen runner, 88mm profile depth
  • Frame 1, for fixed double glazing.

The frame members are made from the same profile. They are mitre cut and welded together for a stronger joint.
Aluminium or stainless steel rails are fitted to the runners of the frame profile, on which the sashes slide to open and close horizontally.

Double Glazing Sliding System Features

Sliding Double Glazed Window and Door Sashes.
  There are two sash profiles: one for double glazed windows and one for double glazed doors. All sashes can be fitted with seal 5x6mm, which provides optimum air, water and sound tightness.
The sash profile has a depth of 41mm, which allows both single and double glazing of glass thickness up to 20mm.
   
Reinforcement within Sliding Double Glazed Windows and Doors.
  The reinforcement chambers of the profiles are designed to provide optimal reinforcement to fulfil static requirements even for large window and door elements. The galvanised steel or aluminium profiles are inserted into the PVC profiles and secured with screws at specified intervals to provide maximum structural integrity to the double glazed window or door.
   
Sliding Sash Double Glazed Window and Door Interlock.
  When the sashes are at closed position, the interlock profiles overlap each other. Optimal sealing is ensured with the addition of two rows of brush seal that attached to the interlock profiles..
   
Sliding Sash Double Glazed Windows and Doors Filler Piece.
  The filler pieces fitted with brush seal provide optimum resistance to driving rain and also prevents the sash from being lifted out of the frame once the installation is completed..

Environmentally Friendly

 

Our Upvc Windows and Doors are ecologically sustainable in many ways: they are 100% recyclable; the non-lead stabilizers make the profile safe for children upvc products even have medical applications in neonatal care, save energy and carbon emissions by being thermally efficient; do not contribute to deforestation or alumina smelter pollution. Research shows that the most promising potential for lowering environmental impacts of windows is expected to be through the optimisation of the design and specific construction processes, which means increasing the quality of the windows with respect to their main function of saving heating energy in the use phase e.g. lowering the specific heat loss. Raising the amount of secondary material used, or lowering the amount of material required for the same function, may be another ground for optimization of the constructions.   Continued on the double glazed environmentally friendly page

Low E Glass

 

Low-e glass brings out the best that technology has to offer for improving your views and comfort! A cool, metal oxide coating is applied to clear or tinted glass, so that the appearance and performance are the same regardless of glass thickness. Low-e glass is recommended by many energy efficiency experts as a result of high performance combined with aesthetics. Low-E glass typically cost about 15% more than ordinary glass, but they reduce energy use by as much as 30-50%, by using most of the heat gain in winter but keep the harmful UV rays out during the summer, and when used in insulated glass units - can have even better benefits.
For hot climates, low-E coating should be applied to the outside pane of glass. If the windows are designed to provide heat energy in the winter and keep heat inside the house typical of cold climates, the Low-E coating will maximise benefit by being on the inside pane of glass.   Great suggestions and more on double glazed low e glass can be found here

 
     
 

Replacement

 

Installation of replacement double glazed windows and doors or for new constructions includes removal but not disposal of existing windows, and includes glazing, which involves fitting glass into the frame.
If you hired a builder to manage the installation, but they are unfamiliar with upvc, we provide consulting services to ensure the windows installation is trouble free.   Continued on the double glazed replacement page

 
     
 

Laminated Glass

 

Is a sandwich made of one thin layer of plastic Poly Vinyl Butyral between two or more sheets of glass. The PVB sticks with the glass, forms chemical as well as mechanical bonds. When laminated with annealed glass, the layer maintains the geometric integrity of the pane in case of breakage.
Also, it gives acoustic insulation as well as providing protection against damage caused due to UV radiation because it cuts almost 99% of UV radiation present in the sunlight.   Get all the facts on double glazed laminated glass

 
     
 

High Performance

 

For windows and doors that do more than just open and close, but actually work for you to reduce your household or office energy bill by utilizing an energy efficient profile system and double glazing. Convenient and comfortable in many ways, they are an essential part of insulating your home or office, for a more sustainable living experience. A standard aluminium sliding window can add 40% heating/ cooling loss in the home. Would you purchase an appliance that can only ever operate at a maximum 60% capacity? But this is essentially what you are doing when your home is poorly insulated! The same high performance extends to acoustic insulation, with a potential reduction of 45dB in our casement, awning, tilt&turn and bifold range. The high-tech weather seal in combination with fusion welding of frames and sashes make the windows completely air and water tight - they have been tested to withstand even cyclone strength winds!   Get the answers on your questions on double glazed high performance on this page

 
     
 

New Construction

 

Installation of Double Glazed Windows in new homes or buildings is usually performed by the builder and his team, however, we are prepared to quote and provide an installation service if required. Installation fee is calculated on a per item basis and depends on the size and quantity of the items. The installation quote ordinarily includes glazing, but we can also provide a quote for installation excluding glazing, or a glazing only installation - we are flexible and understand that client circumstances vary.   Get the answers on your questions on double glazed new construction on this page

 
     
 

Handling and Storage

 

After the double glazed windows are delivered to your home or the construction site, ideally they should be installed as soon as possible, to minimise the risk of accidental damage. However, we understand that this may not be practical if there are other renovation or construction work being completed - in this case, it is best to store the double glazed window/ door frames and glass separately and in an area with limited access, so that the upvc window frames and insulated glass units experience the least movement possible.   A complete guide for double glazed handling and storage can be found here

 
     
 

Waterproof

 

uPVC Double Glazed Windows and Doors are constructed with the highest precision to keep out water during the rain, storms and even cyclones and have been used many times in marine applications, where their quality is heavily tested. They are far more waterproof than other types of windows as they don't absorb moisture. They will not leak a common complaint of many owners of aluminium sliding windows nor will they be damaged by water and rot a potential problem with wooden windows.   For a detailed discussion on the subject of double glazed waterproof click here
