LowE Fenestration Simplified

SARIERA Accredited Manufacturer of Energy Efficient Windows LowE Fenestration Simplified Energy efficient fenestration appeared quite complex when we first heard about it. If you look at the European or the USA situation it does seem that architects and material suppliers have to accommodate a large number of factors when complying with building regulations. However, in South Africa we are fortunate that the climate makes it easy to decide on fenestration planning although architects do have to consider all parts when designing energy efficient buildings. Low E glass means that windows have to be as large as possible because the coating on the glass reduces light transmission but that brings a benefit in winter as there is a larger area to reflect heat back into rooms. You only need to decide between two types of LowE glass - Single Glazed or Double Glazed. Then there is the window frame and KPJ works with wood which is the ideal insulator for energy efficiency. Compliance with SANS 613 is essential and suppliers of fenestration have to be able to show a certificate from SAFIERA. It means windows and doors have to pass tests for air tightness, water resistance and structural strength. KPJ has had its windows tested extensively by an independent laboratory and we have proven that our products meet the highest international standards. KPJ is the leading manufacturer of energy efficient windows, doors and mouldings in South Africa
