They looks like lightweight aluminum construction. But the aluminum windows are suitable only for those buildings? Can we mount such a window in a flat or a house? It turns out that you can. It also appears that they are now increasingly installed in newly built homes. And perfect harmony with the environment.

And what kind of aluminum is used in our house? There are two types of aluminum – hot and cold. Cold aluminum profiles have a single profile, which in the middle is empty. Therefore it is used for commercial buildings. Warm aluminum profiles are a two- or three-chamber profiles with thermal pad in the middle. As a result, aluminum windows have higher thermal insulation. These windows can be safely installed in the apartment.
