Aluminum shutters are loved by more and more people in modern home decoration. As one of the many kinds of blinds, its beautiful shape and high durability have become one of the reasons why many people choose.
If consumers consider installing blinds, they must think of a question: what are the advantages of aluminum blinds, and why should I choose them? According to the characteristics of aluminum blinds, it is easy to decide whether to use them, so I will take you to understand the characteristics of aluminum blinds.
1. Light weight
Aluminum alloy material is mostly hollow core thin wall composite section, easy to use, reduce weight, and the cross section has high bending strength, the doors and windows are durable and not easy to deform.
2. Good sealing
The aluminum alloy is easy to extrude, the cross section size is accurate, and the machining accuracy is high. Most of them are waterproof, elastic and durable sealing materials, such as rubber strips and silicone sealants.
3. Strong weather resistance
Aluminum alloy oxide generally does not fade, does not fall off, and it is not easy to alter, easy to maintain, no need to repair.
4. Beautiful appearance
The surface of aluminum shutters is smooth and shiny after oxidation.The sash frame is large and can be set with a large area of glass, which makes the indoor light bright and bright, enhances the contrast between the interior and exterior, and makes the living room more richer.
By understanding these advantages, we can see that aluminum blinds are a very good sunshade product, both indoors and outdoors.
However, aluminum louvers are more suitable for outdoor shading because of their outstanding weather resistance. In Japan, there is a building that uses aluminum panels for exterior shading. In order to reduce the radiant heat in summer, there are no design openings on both sides of the building.
The system is capable of controlling the circulation of warm air. The principle is to allow warm air to rise through the interior of the double wall to the louver vents.
The area of the outer aluminum pane changes by adjusting the angle, width and length of the panel,and the louver aperture is determined based on the opening of each room and attic, the location of the vents and the air conditioning exit.
According to the change of sunlight and the passage of time, the window sash uses the angle of change to control the light intensity to achieve the desired shading effect. The middle outer courtyard can be seen from the inside.
Lights were placed on the western wall. Since the placement of the lamps is not uniform, Therefore, by dividing the irregularity of the light, to expand the sense of flow in the space and generate a space of expressiveness.
Compared with the design-style shutter building in Japan, there is a “no style” apartment building in Singapore that also uses aluminum blinds to shade.
The designer of the apartment building believes that “it is important to have more and more buildings, but it is also important to become more interesting.”
Because Singapore is located in the tropics, the trick of building in the tropics is not how to avoid the sun, but it is connected to the room through a series of shading methods.
Therefore, the filter of the building uses a louver system that can be independently controlled by residents, so that they can independently adjust temperature, control noise and protect privacy by freely controlling the opening and closing of blinds, while at the same time reducing the air conditioning consumption of the building.
The design faces the south and the daylight penetrates the building to reduce the reliance on artificial lighting. Natural cross ventilation is felt at all corners and has a wide exterior with operable aluminum sun blinds to keep the interior cool.
Each apartment also has an open layout to provide the extra flexibility, and there is also a terrace at the bottom of each building as an “outdoor living space”.
