Keep your spaces bright and airy
» TOP FABRICATOR , Bedfordshire Windows , has added SheerVent ® to its range . An option for the S1 aluminium roof lantern , SheerVent ® is designed to enhance the ventilation properties of homes without compromising on thermal efficiency .
Designed to bathe a property in natural light and offer a stunning focal point for any living space , Bedfordshire Windows ’ S1 aluminium roof lantern has become one of the first roof lights in the UK to now be available with a vent option . SheerVent ® can also be specialised for use on new projects and retrofitted to existing S1 installations .
The minimalist design of SheerVent ® sits flush with the rafter bars and uses powered actuators that can be intelligently automated , offering excellent additional ventilation without the risk of leaks . When combined with the S1 ’ s Thermlock ® multi-chamber thermal technology , it helps to keep heating bills low , whilst deep internal bars create an ultra-strong structure for spans up to 3.2m x 6m without tie bars .
Gary Walker , Joint Managing Director at Bedfordshire Windows , says : “ We ’ re excited to be offering such an innovative product to the trade , and the SheerVent ® system really does what it says on the tin . The intelligent design and powered actuators can make opening or closing the lantern really simple , giving
your customers a massive advantage over standard roof lanterns .
“ The system also retains its super low U-value of 1.0 m ² K / W , even with the SheerVent ® option , making it ideal for those who want more air in their space , without compromising on the overall energy efficiency of their window .”
This was echoed by the team at Sheerline , with Dave Wigley , Head of Marketing adding , “ It ’ s been brilliant to get SheerVent ® out to our friends at Bedfordshire Windows and we ’ re looking forward to seeing what comes next for the system .”
