Australian building regulations (BCA) have changed to focus on reducing energy consumption, so more consideration is required in the design and planning of buildings with the move from 5 to 6 star energy ratings.
Trend Thermashield energy efficient window and door systems makes it easy to evaluate the level of protection required for each specific window and door in a project as a major part of energy loss is through inefficient glazing.
Environmental principals should to be incorporated at the design stage where initial extra costs in the building or renovation stage will provide long term benefits by assisting in the reduction of heating and cooling in the home. This transforms into cost savings on energy bills and helping the environment.
The Trend Thermashield system can make buildings more energy efficient, more comfortable, reduces energy bills and lessens peak heating and cooling loads. This means smaller heating or cooling systems can be employed.
Trend Thermashield frames with low thermal conductivity and low air infiltration complemented by energy efficient double glazed systems balances out the entire window system.
All Trend Thermashield products are WERS (Window Energy Rating System) rated and are all NATA tested.
