Design Features
1. This full vision vertical sliding sashless double-hung window
has been designed to complement our existing quality product range including:
SlideMASTER™ and DUO sliding doors, Bi-fold doors and the new Magnum™ horizontal
sliding, awning and casement windows.
2. The window has been tested for compliance with the relevant Australian
Standards and achieved a high water resistance of 300Pa.
3. 102mm Frames, mullions and
transoms have a soft 2mm internal radius. Sashes can be secured with key
or non-key
locking shoot bolt type lock.
4. The main feature with this ClearVENT™ window
is the clear unobtrusive
vision as there are no horizontal central sash rails. As one sash is lifted
the other lowers (the sashes are joined via cords and pulleys).
5. A fixed sill glass panel can be fitted into the ClearVENT™ window
to make it easy for top ventilation only. This fixed sill panel could also
be used on tall windows in elevated installations as a safety barrier (check
the requirements of local authorities), refer details in these notes.
6. ClearVENT™ windows can be fitted with external flyscreens. Special
extrusions have been cut to make sure this detail matches the overall window
design, no turn buckles required. If you don't require screens we again have
extrusions to suit this situation.
7. The window is compatible (appearance) with the high performance Magnum™ horizontal
sliding, awning and casement windows. A large range of snap couplers allow
these (102 and 50mm) windows to be joined at 90°, 135° and 180° without
unsightly rivets or screws.
8. These couplers would also allow this window to couple to Bi-fold windows,
Bi-fold doors, French doors, Sliding doors and DUO sliding doors.
9. Fixed lowlights / sidelights match Magnum™ awning fixed windows.
10. Sashes are counterweighted by the adjoining sash via stainless steel/nylon
pulleys and cords.
11. Sashes can be glazed with 6mm annealed, 5 or 6mm toughened or 6.38mm
laminated glass. The fixed sidelights will accept glass from 4mm single glazing
to 24mm IGU's.
12. The tubular 39mm x 102mm perimeter frame (72822) can be fitted with patented
condensation draining ball valve.
The same 39mm x 102mm perimeter frame (72822) will also accept 'Paddington'
federation trims.
13. ClearVENT™ vertical sliding sashes can also be installed into Vantage
Series 548 Hinged and Bi-fold doors.
