Choosing to replace your windows requires considerable thought; it’s important to make a well-informed choice. Deciding what’s best for your home will depend on a variety of factors. If you have decided you want your new windows to have the traditional timber-effect look, with the low maintenance and high performance of uPVC, we have two available options. At Wolverhampton Glass, we install the Residence Collection and Infinity Windows. Read on, as we discuss which option is best for you.
Both of these windows provide seriously impressive aesthetics to homes across Wolverhampton and beyond. The window you choose ultimately boils down to personal choice and individual taste.
We offer both the Residence 7 and Residence 9 windows. The difference between the two is that R7 windows have a contemporary flush look internally and externally, whereas R9 windows look traditional with a wood effect for a more heritage aesthetic. Residence 7 windows boast a chic modern appearance that can be applied to both contemporary new builds and traditional homes alike. Residence 9 windows are built to match the specifications of Article 4 directions, meaning they are likely to be your safest bet when replacing older windows in conservation areas.
If you are seeking to recreate the authentic timber look to its fullest, the Infinity option is another choice to consider. Infinity’s innovative design ensures that any leftover plastic has been smoothed out of the frames, leaving sleek corner joints that look just like authentic timber windows. Infinity windows are available in a selection of colours and wood grain effect finishes. From classic Chartwell Green to contemporary Agate Grey, there’s a colour for everyone in the Infinity range.
Our wide selection of window profiles are made-to-measure, so they can easily suit any style of property. You’ll be able to choose between three materials: uPVC, aluminium and timber, and six window styles. Discover our range today.
WindowsBoth Residence collection and Infinity windows are capable of achieving A++ Window Energy Ratings and enviably low U-values of just 0.8 W/m²K. Constructed from insulating uPVC material and double glazed sealed units as standard, both of these window types provide similarly high levels of energy efficiency that far surpass Building Regulation minimum requirements.
Infinity windows
Both options are constructed from uPVC, a material renowned for its distinctively low maintenance qualities. All you’ll ever need to worry about when purchasing either set is giving them the occasional wipe over with a damp cloth to keep them looking as good as the day they were fitted.
