About KlassicView 53mm Awning Windows
A popular choice with builders and home owners, the 53mm KlassicView awning window is an ideal choice for when you are looking for unobstructed views and ventilation. Compatible with other KlassicView window and door systems. The 53mm awning window system features continuous jamb options.
As with all KlassicView systems, the 53mm awning window system has been tested and exceeds Australian Standard AS2047.
Awning Window Design Features:
- Frame sizes up to 1500mm x 1200mm
- Dedicated fly screen groove
- Accepts a glass thickness of 4mm – 10.38mm (single glazed)
- Dedicated plastic guides and caps
WERS Ratings
The Window Energy Rating Scheme (WERS) is accredited by the AFRC – which means that WERS ratings are compliant with the NCC.
Reports are prescribed both the window performance for total window U Value (Uw) and total window Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGCw).
U-value
U-value measures how well a product prevents heat from escaping.
It is a measure of the rate of non-solar heat loss or gain through a material or assembly.
U-value ratings generally fall between 2.0-10.0 W/m2.K for Australian products. The lower the U-value, the greater a window’s resistance to heat and cold flow and the better its insulating value.
Solar Heat Gain Co-efficient (SHGC)
SHGC measures how well a product blocks heat caused by sunlight. SHGC is expressed as a number between 0 and 1. The lower a window’s SHGC, the less solar heat it transmits.
Tested to AS2047
Under the Building Code of Australia, we are required to produce windows and doors that meet mandatory minimum specifications under Australian Standard (AS) 2047 – including AS1288.
Simulations of High Winds and Driving Rains
AS4420.2 Deflection Test – positive and negative wind pressures are applied to the face of the window to test the maximum deflection under wind load.
AS4420.5 Water Penetration Resistance Test – to verify that no water leaks through the window into the building.
Operating Force Requirement
AS4420.3 Operating Force Test – to verify that an opening sash is capable of opening and closing without undue effort.
Air Infiltration Pressure
AS4220.4 Air In filtration Test – the air leakage of a window is tested to ensure energy and acoustic efficiency.
Ultimate Strength Testing
AS4420.6 Ultimate Strength Test – negative and positive wind pressures are applied to the window to at least 1.5 times the design wind pressure to ensure it does not fail in unusual wind conditions.
