Residence 9 vs Traditional Timber?
Wooden windows require regular maintenance over the years to keep them looking their best. The upkeep of the can be both time consuming and costly. Residence 9 provides a more cost effective solution to wood. The Residence 9 wood effect windows finishing layer only needs occasional cleaning with soapy water. No painting or special maintenance is required.
Cheap wooden products or poorly maintained timber can distort when wet and can crack when extremely dry on hot days. Sashes can be tight to open in the winter because they swell but create a draft in the summer as the timber dries out causing pressure on handles and locks.
The thermal performance or insulation gained from Residence 9 will usually outperform a timber window with like for like glass.
