Description

Part of the Schüco AWS system platform, Schüco AWS 70.HI (high insulation) offers an attractive range of solutions with outstanding thermal insulation for the 70 mm basic depth. Aluminium construction provides functional and energy-efficient design properties with benefits that include excellent thermal insulation values, narrow face widths and concealed, standard manual or electromechanical fittings for inward and outward-opening windows. The high level of system flexibility enables various uses to meet a range of different building envelope requirements: punched opening, ribbon window or facade insert unit, or in combination with Schüco door systems. The wide range of opening types includes crank-operated turn/tilt vents, bottom-hung top lights and barrier-free window doors. Profiles include corner mullions, structural mullions, symmetrical and asymmetrical mullions, multiple design variations and additional combination options, similar to Schüco sun shading and ventilation systems. Schüco AWS 70.HI offers planning flexibility and attractive window solutions for ambitious, energy-efficient building envelopes.
