Warranty

The Warranty Certificate certifies the quality of products as of the date of receipt onwards. We undertake to remedy any and all possible deficiencies and defects within the warranty period, at our own expenses. We will respond to the customer’s complaint within 15 days and remedy defects in the shortest time possible, as far as practicable.

The warranty is valid only if accompanied by a receipt and a duly completed service log, which is a component part of Use and Maintenance Instructions of purchased products. The customer shall receive the instructions together with the receipt and they are also available on the M SORA web page.

The service log is used for registering performed checks, care and mainteance works. Complaints shall only be asserted if a customer observes regular and timely maintenance of products, in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. It shall be filed with a written application, containing the description of the defect and information on the user and the building in question (address of the building, telephone number of the user, receipt number). The customer is obliged to warn the manufacturer of any visible defects within 8 days. This warranty does not cover any customer complaints relating to remedying defects, caused by third persons, without the written consent of the manufacturer.

Warning: This warranty does not exclude any customer rights arising from the manufacturer’s liability for defected goods.

Glass
Double-glazed or triple-glazed insulation glass?

Glass is a window element that most impacts the thermal insulation of the window or rather the heat gain or loss (Uw) through the window as in most cases 70% of a window’s total surface is covered by glass. When it comes to windows, we speak of thermal insulating glass made up of two or three panes of glass separated by spacers to form a cavity filled with inert gas. The following impacts the thermal transmittance (Ug) of a window:

  • the number of glass panes or inter-pane gaps;
  • the width of the inter-pane spacer or the gap between the panes;
  • the type of inert gas;
  • the number and type of glass coatings.

The number of glass panes is the most important factor which impacts Ug. The Ug of a single-glazed windows is 5.7 W/m2K, Ug of most double-glazed windows is between 1.0 W/m2K and 1.4 W/m2K and Ug of most triple-glazed windows is between 0.5 W/m2K and 0.8 W/m2K.

What is a inter-pane spacer?

The basic function of the inter-pane spacer, which is placed on the edges of the insulation glass units, is to maintain an even distance between the glass panes (e.g. 12, 14, 16, 18 mm) and to prevent the leakage of inert gas (argon, krypton) from the inter-pane space. A sealant (e.g. polysulfide or silicone) applied under the spacer also prevents gas leakage. Basic inter-pane spacers are (were) made of aluminium which is a very good heat conductor. Thus, a combination of glass and aluminium spacer in an insulation glass unit constitutes a thermal bridge which is reflected in a low temperature of the edge of the inner glass unit and in the formation of condensation. One way to avoid this is to use what is known as “warm edge” spacers that are available in more than 20 varieties. One of the most often used variety is the TGI spacer made of a stainless steel and polypropylene, a combination that prevents the formation of a thermal bridge. Currently, Swisspacer Ultimate, which is made of composite polymer material and free of any metals, is the best inter-pane spacer in the market. An empty space between the walls of both spacers is filled with desiccant.

What impacts the thermal insulation of a wooden window profile?

A window profile consists of a casement and frame. Thermal insulation of a window profile is expressed in its thermal transmittance (Uf-value) the unit of which corresponds to W/m2K. The Uf-value depends on the thickness (l) of the profile (e.g. 68 mm, 78 mm, 92 mm, 110 mm), (ll) type of the wood and (lll) profile’s shape and details.

What is the difference between a classic and a panoramic lift-slide window?

The glass in the fixed component of the lift-slide PANORAMIC windows runs from the ceiling to the floor. This way, the room gets even more sunlight. In addition, such windows have a minimalist aesthetic effect.
