 \nu PVC Sliding Sash Windows  \nPeriod Style  \nThe Legacy uPVC sliding sash windows carry all the beauty of a traditional design, coupled with all the benefits of modern materials that enable us to offer a cost effective, low maintenance window that doesn’t compromise on aesthetics. From near-invisible joints, the elegance of the run-through sash horn to the curvy ovolo frame shape, these are just a handful of the many clever details that work together to create the most graceful and advanced sash window on the market.  \nWith the increase of uPVC sliding sash windows being specified in premium developments, new design options and a bespoke colour-bonding service have been introduced, providing homeowners with a plethora of choice to create the perfect timber alternative solution that doesn’t break the bank.  \n2 Legacy | PVCu Sliding Sash Windows  \nContents  \nThe Finer Details  Page 4  \nSlide & Tilt Facility  Page 7  \nThermal Efficiency  Page 8  \nPlanning & Conservation  Page 10  \nQuality & Compliance  Page 11  \nPeace of Mind  Page 12  \nHardware  Page 13  \nColour Options  Page 14  \nGlass  Page 15  \nStyles & Shapes  Page 16  \nTechnical Info  Page 19  \nLegacy | uPVC Sliding Sash Windows 3  \nThe Finer Details  \nWith our Legacy sash windows, you can respect the traditions, admire the woodworker’s art, and enjoy modern advances that can make your home warm and secure. From a terraced house to a stately home, our sash windows can help ensure that your property retains its character and charm. You can choose from a wide range of styles, features, and hardware options to complement your home.  \nTRADITIONAL SASH HORNS  \nBy removing the lip on the sash horn edge, a new refined sash horn can carry a woodgrain foiled end cap that run seamlessly with the shape of the horn. The sash horn utilises mechanical joints rather than welded to allow the horn to be a continuous part of the sash giving the window a more authentic overall look.  \nSash Horn with slim midrail  \nSash Horn with standard midrail  \nDEEP BOTTOM RAIL  \nChoose a deep bottom rail if you want your sliding sash windows to look as close to the original timber version as possible. The fully mechanical deep bottom rail convincingly mimics the bottom sash of timber windows from the Victorian era and looks great with run-through sash horns.  \n4 Legacy | uPVC Sliding Sash Windows  \nSLIM MIDRAIL  \nThe styling details of our sash windows are now more rooted in history than ever before. The new 37mm slim midrail will reaffirm Legacy’s position as one of the most authentic sash windows on the market ideal for period properties or homes in conservation areas. Available with run-through sash horns and in selected colours only.  \nWEATHER BAR  \nThe sash window boasts an optional ovolo shaped weather bar, which is the latest of our heritage design features, developed to create an authentic sash window appearance.  \nASTRAGAL BARS  \nInclude a bar layout on your new sash windows for added character. Astragal bars are fixed onto the surface of the glass and are accompanied by back-toback spacer bars inside the double-glazed unit to give the appearance of separate panes.  \nLegacy | uPVC Sliding Sash Windows 5  \nAUTHENTIC JOINTS  \nReplace your standard corner joints with fully mechanical timber looking joints for an authentic finish that carefully disguises the uPVC aspects. Traditionally, a lot of time was spent handcrafting the original corner joints on timber sash windows and with our advanced machinery we can emulate these joints and get as close to the original as possible.  \nFULLY MECHANICAL JOINTS  \nThe fully mechanical joints take authenticity to another level because the 45° uPVC welds on the sash are replaced with 90° mechanical joints as found on traditional timber windows.  \nSTANDARD 45° WELDED SASH  \nAs standard, we’ll default to a mechanical jointed outer frame with a 45° welded sash. Fully welded is available upon request. The standard welding technique ensures that the corners ar","cbCain249G9fHYpt","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCain249G9fHYpt","pdf",4694386,"English","# The Finer Details\n## Traditional Sash Horns\n## Deep Bottom Rail\n## Slim Midrail\n## Weather Bar\n## Astragal Bars\n## Authentic Joints\n## Fully Mechanical Joints\n## Slide & Tilt Facility\n## Colour-matched Trickle Vents\n## Thermal Efficiency","[{\"question\":\"What makes Legacy uPVC sliding sash windows look authentic for period properties?\",\"answer\":\"Legacy uses heritage-inspired styling such as run-through sash horn options, slim midrail design, optional ovolo weather bar, astragal bar detailing, and fully mechanical joints that mimic traditional timber corner joints.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the slide \\u0026 tilt facility improve usability and cleaning?\",\"answer\":\"Both the top and bottom sashes slide for ventilation, and an easy clean tilt facility lets you clean the external side of the windows from inside the home, where the finish conditions allow.\"},{\"question\":\"How are the windows designed for strong thermal performance?\",\"answer\":\"The frames and sashes are multichambered, and all units include a 24mm insulated double-glazed unit with an argon gas insert and warm-edge spacer bar to reduce heat transfer and keep warmth inside.\"}]","Legacy - uPVC Sliding Sash Windows | PDF",31]
