Choosing the right energy-efficient windows for your Edinburgh home requires careful consideration. For example, have the existing windows in your Victorian villa seen better days and are you looking to retrofit triple glazed windows instead? Or, are you planning to build a custom designed Passivhaus which require that are not only beautiful to look at but are as energy efficient as possible? Whichever example best describes your needs EKCO aluminium clad windows could be the right choice for you.
EKCO Aluclad windows offer a range of benefits. Engineered to your exact requirements they combine the warmth of wood with an exterior aluminium cladding to deliver protection against the elements and ultimate energy efficiency. They are also virtually maintenance-free and will look beautiful for decades to come.
Wood has been the preferred material for window construction for centuries, not only for its warmth and beauty, but for its longevity. However, when exposed to the elements, especially on coastal locations, such as Edinburgh or East Lothian, wooden window frames need to be maintained every few years for optimal performance.
Aluminium, on the other hand, is considerably more weather resistant than wood. It is also harder wearing and less likely to be damaged or prone to rotting. By combining aluminium and wood together in a hybrid composite design EKCO achieves the best of both worlds – beauty and durability combined with energy efficiency.
Energy-efficient casement windows offer sleek lines and slim profiles. More glass and less frame mean more light. Casement windows are also hinged on one side so will open to the left or right and are suitable for both new builds and traditional homes alike. Choose from double-glazed casement windows or lower your u-values even further by choosing triple glazed windows instead.
Bay windows were extremely popular in Georgian and Victorian Edinburgh properties and have never gone out of style. They were originally designed to create somewhere to sit and watch the world go by, but bay windows can also be added to flush exterior walls. A bay window usually consists of three or more windows with one or two main windows facing front and the others at each side. EKCO energy efficient Aluclad bay windows can be installed in both traditional properties and new builds and are the perfect complement to casement windows.
The gable is a triangular section of a wall between intersecting roof pitches and have been an integral part of home design for centuries. However, they became extremely popular in Victorian, gothic-style homes which were heavily influenced by European architecture. The gable is also extensively used by architects in modern, custom-designed homes as they allow the living space to be flooded with natural light, especially when combined with bi-fold or sliding doors. EKCO energy-efficient Aluclad windows can also be engineered to fit either front gables, which overlook the street, or side gables.
Bespoke Aluclad windows from EKCO, Edinburgh and Livingston are engineered from premium-grade aluminium or UPVC depending on your needs and budget. As well as our own EKCO window we have an exclusive partnership with Austrian window manufacturer Gaulhofer to bring you a further range of wood, or aluminium and wood, windows. Together our range of windows offer you unrivalled choice and flexibility while delivering energy efficiency which is better for the environment and better for your pocket.
