FAQs

What are the exact external dimensions of the window?

The window measures 820mm in width and 820mm in height.

Is this window suitable for all types of weather?

The top-hung design allows for ventilation even in light rain. For heavy rain or strong winds, it is advisable to keep the window closed.

What is an 'espag locking system'?

An espagnolette (espag) locking system is a multi-point locking mechanism operated by a single handle, providing enhanced security and airtightness.

Can the handle be replaced if it's damaged?

Yes, the handle is a standard component and can be replaced if necessary. Ensure you source a compatible replacement part.

What does 'A-rated glazing' mean?

A-rated glazing signifies a high level of thermal insulation performance, contributing to energy efficiency and reduced heating costs.

How do I clean the black frame?

Clean the black PVC frame with a soft, damp cloth and mild soapy water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Does this window come pre-assembled?

The window unit itself comes ready for installation, including the double-glazed unit and the frame. The handle and cill are typically attached during the installation process.

Troubleshooting

Window is difficult to open or close

Check for obstructions in the opening mechanism. Ensure the espag lock is fully disengaged. The frame might have shifted slightly; check for any binding and adjust if necessary, or consult a professional.

Condensation between panes

This indicates a seal failure in the double-glazed unit. The unit will likely need to be replaced.

Locking mechanism feels stiff

Clean the espag mechanism and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to moving parts. Ensure no debris is obstructing the lock.

Drafts around the frame when closed

Inspect the weather seals for wear or damage. Ensure the window is properly sealed into the wall opening; re-sealing may be required.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Installation of the Crystal Top Hung Opener Double Glazed Window typically requires professional fitting due to the need for secure mounting and weather sealing. Ensure the rough opening is precisely the specified dimensions (820 x 820mm) and prepared according to building regulations. Use the provided glazing packers to ensure the unit is correctly seated and sealed. The handle and cill are designed for straightforward attachment.

Care:

  • Drainage: Ensure the weep holes in the cill are clear of debris to allow water to drain effectively.
