Bespoke Energy Screens
Levolux Energy Screens exclude solar heat gain during the day and help insulate buildings at night. They are generally large in scale, motorised and solar controlled to take full advantage of heat gain reductions by their use.
Energy Screens are constructed from a combination of steel, aluminium extrusions, perforated and solid aluminium sheets. Glass and timber screens are also available.
Energy Screens can be installed at a fixed angle, or can be operable with a centre or side pivot. The body of the screen can be fully enclosed or single skinned, with “skeletonised” support ribs with flat or curved facings.
Due to their size Energy Screens are generally manufactured in component form and assembled on site. However this may vary dependent upon individual project conditions.
At the CAE project the screens are side pivoted, motorised, with solar controls. Also included are automatic safety strips that stop the shutters moving when pressed to avoid trapping anyone or anything between the screen and the windows.
