Event Description
Alex Holly | Omega Windows and Doors
Thermal performance update, the H1AS1 Consultation process and what was proposed.
Introduction of the Warmcore system, high performance thermally broken aluminium look joinery, with proven use in passivhaus builds.
- Weather tightness with regard to thermal performance, covering basic weather tightness concepts and window and door specific details such as pressure equalization.
- Proper window installation, why it is important to a thermally resilient building and a step by step guide to a well installed window.
Learning outcomes:
- What has been proposed by MBIE for the future of H1AS1?
- How does weathertightness contribute to a high performance thermally broken window.
- How does the Omega 800 series achieve high thermal resilience figures?
- How should a window be installed, so as to not detract from the thermal performance of a building?
