What Are Heritage Sash Windows Made From?
Sash windows typically have frames that appear the same width, known as ‘equal sightlines’ achieved by using dummy sashes which improve the overall appearance of the property.
They are designed to recreate the semblance of timber, providing the benefit of a minimalistic look with sleek and slim profiles. Our flush sash windows can blend seamlessly into the surroundings of a property adding a touch of elegance and refinement that other windows simply cannot achieve.

The Importance of glazing bars
The inherent thermal insulation properties of these windows, including those featuring astragal bars, significantly contribute to energy conservation. By minimising heat transfer and preventing drafts, our windows help reduce energy consumption, fostering a comfortable and eco-friendly indoor environment.
The glazing bar sits between the two panes of glass in double glazing to hold them apart, and contains desiccant which absorbs any moisture which may be in the unit.
When you combine the thermally efficient glazing bars with the thermal efficiency of our sash windows, you get a highly efficient window. The windows have a core designed around Heritage 2800, the insulating properties of flush sash are even more impressive. A double glazed window U value of just 1.2 epitomises this market leading product.
