Intex Windows and Doors Profiles
Intex use good Kommerling-76 AD and MD Profile systems with a 3″ (76mm) profile width for tilt and turn and picture windows. These 5 chambers profiles are well-known in Canada and have been used for many years. The Glass Edge Frost protection has a depth of 18mm. Intex uses 30 mm U-profile steel reinforcement in frames and sashes for their upvc-windows. These same profiles are used in all their windows and doors. This has its pros and cons. The combined height of the frame and sash stands at 116mm tall. This is a normal height. They use some original techniques to ensure lower prices.
Intex Windows and Doors Glazing
Intex’s standard double pane glass unit width is 24 mm. This glazing provides an R-value of 3.9 with 1 low-E glass pane, 1 argon filling, and a visual transmittance of 69%.
Intex’s standard triple pane glass unit width is 34 mm. This type of glazing provides an R-value of 5.6 with 1 low-E glass (7036) panes, 2 argon fillings, and a visual transmittance of 63% (all this information are from data of glass manufacturer).
The normal width of glass unit for European windows in Canada is 34 – 37mm. Intex Doorwin triple pane windows have 2 regular glass panes and one Low-E glass. This one Low-E glass pane is quite good, being made of great brand name glazing. It is a good product.
This low-E glass pane is in the 5th position. This is the standard position. The glass panes in this position are optimized to increase thermal efficiency for winters but offer less Sun heat protection in summer. These windows are quite optimal for small and medium size windows.
Intex Doors and Windows Durability
Intex Doors and Windows usually use the same profiles for their window frames as they do for their door frames, which is a common choice to save money. Although normal door frames use different profiles (special for door frames), using the window profiles for door fames still done. This is in their quotes. It is a common choice for some manufacturers in Canada.
Intex Doors and Windows uses U-type steel reinforcements for their window and door frames, with a common thickness. These U-type supports are less durable than the O-type steel reinforcements which used in their door sashes. There steel reinforcement is one of the key point of their durability.
The bottom part of the door frames had been cut down and therefore have а non-symmetric welded corner. This is a very original solution for vinyl windows and doors. Although this is an interesting idea, it has its pros and cons. This idea is not well known in the professional setting yet.
