Residence 7 vs Residence 9: What Do They Offer?

Although the Residence 7 windows and Residence 9 windows do share some similarities, there are also a number of features that make the profiles differ from each other.

The first thing that we can mention is how the Residence 7 window offers a fully flush profile on both the inside and outside. The Residence 9 windows offer an external flush appearance only, with the interior of the profile providing a more decorative appearance.

What are flush windows?

When we refer to Residence Windows as ‘flush’ – we mean that the window frame sits flat against the outside profile. Flush windows sit flat against the surrounding frame – they are ‘flush’ with the exterior. Flush sash windows and flush casement windows have grown in popularity over the years, due to their impressive aesthetic. Flush designs offer a touch of modern elegance, alongside clean, crisp lines. You can also enjoy flush windows in numerous colours and foils, including woodgrain options, giving the appearance of timber windows, without the maintenance issues.

Why Are Residence 7 Windows Different to Residence 9 Windows?

If you live in period or heritage style home, then the Residence 9 flush windows would be the perfect option for you. They have been carefully crafted to replicate 19th Century timber windows, using a variety of authentic manufacturing techniques. This style also features joints that are butted together to enhance authenticity further.

The Residence 7 windows have been designed to embrace a vast range of manufacturing techniques, which allows them to suit any style of modern, new build or traditional style property. This style comes with a range of joint options including Mitre Weld, Graf Weld, Timberweld and MechWeld joint options.

One of the biggest differences between the two Residence Collection windows is how many chambers the profiles are made up of. The R7 window has a total of 7 chambers, whereas the R9 has 9 chambers. By having a multiple number of chambers, this will help to improve the thermal efficiency of any property they’re installed into. They also both achieve A+ energy ratings and can be fitted with 28mm double or 44mm triple glazing.
