Famous Myths about Aluminium

Myth #01 Aluminium Windows Cause Condensation
Condensation is a process where water droplets accumulate on a cold surface turning the surface moist. As a metal, aluminium is known to turn cold quickly due to fluctuations in temperature and cause condensation, turning the aluminium doors and windows damp.

Myth #02 Aluminium and Stylish Don’t Really Go Together
Many homeowners believe that aluminium is a cheap material that lacks style and class. While this might be true for cheaper aluminium panels and sheets; window and door frames designed using aluminium are anything but less stylish.

Myth #03 Aluminium does not Offer Insulation
It is a common myth that being a metal, aluminium does little to contain the warmth or coolness of your space. While aluminium doors and windows do not rely on chamber-style insulation seen in uPVC frames, they have several thermal breaks built onto them.

Myth #04 Aluminium windows and doors are Downright Incompatible with Vintage Buildings
Since aluminium has a naturally sleek finish, most people tend to see it as incompatible with old buildings that demand a regal finish.

Myth #05 Aluminium is not Eco-Friendly
That metal wastes are toxic to the environment is not news. When left in the soil or water for long periods, metal wastes can kill natural life too.
