Thermally advanced GLAZED TIMBER Curtain Wall

Glazed Timber Curtain Wall increases thermal performance by at least 56% over Aluminum-Framed Curtain Wall. The material inherent energy of timber is only a fraction of alternative facade materials i.e. steel or aluminum. The use of timber can contribute to cost effective and sustainable buildings. A timber structure combined with highly insulated glazing units reduces life cycle energy loss and costs.

Condensation Resistance of Glazed Timber curtain wall

The condensation resistance of any window wall and curtain wall system is an important comfort and durability issue. Typically higher thermally insulating products will have better resistance to the occurrence of condensation.

 

Isothermal Lines

As illustrated, the red isothermal line relevant for condensation runs inside the sash and frame structure on all Fassaden glazed timber curtain wall and window wall products. An increase in the wood moisture content and the penetration of condensate into the surrounding structure and insulation are prevented. This prohibits fungal growth and window damage. In addition, it prevents mold growth in the cavity walls and damage caused to interior surrounding materials such as the plaster damage commonly observed around metal-framed window systems.
