ThermalHeart+® Ranges

The ThermalHeart+® ranges share the same core design principles allowing for exceptional versatility across the full range of products. The three standard E2/AS1 installation ranges can be used within one project and maintain a consistent look.

Minimum insulation requirements for new housing set out in clause H1 Energy Efficiency of the New Zealand Building Code require all zones achieve a minimum R-Value (R0.46 for Zone 1-4, R0.50 for Zone 5-6). Wherever you are in New Zealand, your project will exceed the Building Code requirements when you choose ThermalHeart+® joinery with The AGP System® glazing.

Non-thermal ranges

For instances such as renovation, the replacement joinery needs to meet the minimum requirement in place at the time of the original installation (like-for-like). There are three non-thermally improved ranges available for use where it complies with the minimum requirement. 

These are general guidelines only, consult with your local authority for specifics relevant to your project.

Residential Series

A non-thermally improved range of Residential Series is available. With clean, contemporary lines, it is our most economical, mainstream range of windows and doors. 

  • Recommended door height of 2.2m - 2.4m, depending on site conditions 
  • Options for insert windows
  • Scope to choose specialised passive ventilation features

Metro Series

A non-thermally improved range of Metro Series is available. It is a stylish and heavy-duty range, suitable for residential and architectural applications.

  • Recommended door height of 2.7m, depending on site conditions 
  • Clean, flat surfaces
  • Sliding panel/s in this range will be the outer panel/s
  • Scope to choose specialised passive ventilation products

APL Architectural Series

A non-themally improved range of APL Architectural Series is available. This range features square-edged shape and flush surfaces and is targeted at architectural homes and apartments.

  • Recommended door height of 2.7m, however doors can potentially be higher depending on site conditions 
  • Square-edged shape and flush surfaces
  • Sliding panel/s in this range can be the inner or outer panel/s
  • Scope to choose specialised passive ventilation products

Note: performance specifications differ from the thermally-improved range above. In most cases, this option won't meet the new H1 Energy Efficiency requirements of the Building Code. Please consult with your local authority for specifics relevant to your project.

Get greater thermal performance

Consider how the combination of products in your window system will work together to deliver ultimate thermal efficiency and home comfort. When ThermalHeart+® frames are combined with The AGP System® glass, the thermal performance of the whole unit almost doubles(1) when compared to standard non-thermally improved aluminium joinery.

Wherever you are in New Zealand, your project will exceed the Building Code requirements when you choose ThermalHeart+® frames or Klima® uPVC joinery, and glaze with The AGP System®.

For non-consented renovation work, the replacement joinery needs to meet the minimum requirement in place at the time of the original installation (like-for-like). However, updating joinery is an opportunity to increase the insulation properties of your windows and doors to current standards.
