Education

So important in this day-and-age, architects and engineers are looking for window and door systems that energy efficient. CityView double glazed window and door systems provide the ideal solution for energy in schools as they keep the cold out during winter and the heat our during summer. Reducing the reliance on air conditioning and artificial lighting can go a along way in increasing energy efficiency. CityView awning and louvre windows and Darley commercial framing have been designed to increase natural light and airflow reducing the need for lights and air conditioners.

A busy classroom does not the distraction of outside noise, which is why acoustics performance is so important in an education setting. Acoustic performance refers to the ability of window, door and framing systems to lockout unwanted noise. The CityView range of window and door systems provide noise reduction, resulting in a more comfortable environment for the students.

In Australia all window, door and framing systems must adhere to Australian standard AS2047, which prescribes the requirements for  windows and external glazed doors in buildings.

All ClimateGuard & CityView window and door systems have been tested to (in a NATA accredited laboratory) and exceed this Australian Standard. In addition CityView & ClimateGuard systems are also offer a a solution for accessible living and are compliant with Australian Standard AS 1428.1 which details the requirements for access and mobility.

One of the most crucial factors to consider for educational projects is the comfort and well being of both students and teachers. Classrooms should have an abundance of natural light, natural air flow and ventilation. The CityView awning windows and louvre windows are able to achieve such a balance. In addition, Darley’s Ventient trickle ventilation system can also assist with this as it provides an energy efficient solution for managing passive airflow ventilation.
