Windows are among the few elements of a home that you use every day, without paying them much attention. However, you immediately notice them when they are not doing their job: when there is noise from outside, when condensation appears or when the temperature inside is not as desired.
In a project located on the seafront, the choice of the carpentry system becomes even more important. Humidity, saline aerosols and wind put additional pressure on the materials, and the performance of the windows directly influences the comfort inside the home.
At AXXIS Nova Resort & SPA, the Reynaers MasterLine 8 system is used, one of the most efficient aluminum systems currently available for premium residential projects.
8-chamber aluminum profile
MasterLine 8 is a system developed to provide high performance in terms of thermal insulation, tightness and durability. The profile structure includes eight chambers, a configuration that contributes to reducing heat transfer and maintaining a comfortable indoor climate regardless of the season.
At the same time, aluminum offers stability and resistance over time, important qualities for a construction located near the sea.
Saint-Gobain triple pane glass
The system is completed by triplex glass from Saint-Gobain, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of glass for construction.
The glass is thermally and chemically treated to better withstand the specific conditions of the marine environment and to provide high long-term performance, including high energy efficiency.
Less noise, more comfort
A lesser-known technical detail is that the glass sheets used have different thicknesses.
This solution is used to improve sound insulation. Sound waves are attenuated more effectively than in the case of glass sheets of identical thickness.
Hidden hinges
In addition to its technical performance, the system used at AXXIS Nova Resort & SPA includes completely concealed hinges.
From an aesthetic point of view, these are a plus, as they do not leave any hardware elements visible. At the same time, they allow the discreet integration of windows into a contemporary design.
A high-performance window therefore means more than just natural light and a gateway to a spectacular view. It contributes to the energy efficiency of the home, acoustic comfort and the behavior of the building over time.
