ThermalHEART® Frames.
Designed to meet the updated H1 Energy Efficiency standards of the NZBC, ThermalHEART® windows ensure your project exceeds thermal performance requirements. With over 20 years of experience, Windowmakers provides expert guidance, ensuring your project meets all necessary standards.
What are ThermalHEART® Frames?
ThermalHEART® thermally broken aluminium frames feature an advanced polyamide barrier at their core, effectively separating warm and cold areas to insulate the window frame and nearly double the thermal performance of standard aluminium joinery. Designed to improve energy efficiency, ThermalHEART® technology transforms traditionally cold aluminium window frames into a solution that creates warmer, drier, and healthier homes.
Available across all our aluminium door and window ranges, ThermalHEART® themal break aluminium combines modern design with superior energy energy efficiency, ensuring year-round comfort.

Thermal performance is almost doubled
ThermalHEART® thermally broken aluminium frames, combined with The AGP System™ double glazing with argon gas, improve thermal performance by 94.7% compared to standard aluminium doors and windows.
NZBC H1 compliance
The updated H1 requirements mandate high-performance insulated glass units within thermally enhanced frames, specifying an R-Value of 0.46 for windows and doors in buildings across the North Island. ThermalHEART® thermally broken aluminium frames, combined with The AGP System™ double glazing with argon gas, meet and exceed these standards, ensuring superior thermal efficiency.
Separates warm and cold areas
The polyamide strip in ThermalHEART® thermal break aluminium minimise heat flow through the aluminium window frame, creating a more stable indoor temperature by effectively separating warm and cold areas.
Keeps your home comfortable year-round
ThermalHEART® thermally broken aluminium frames insulate the window system, helping to keep cool temperatures out during colder months and reducing solar gain in warmer months. This ensures consistent warmth and comfort throughout the year.
Aids in managing the risk of condensation
ThermalHEART® thermally broken aluminium frames help manage the risk of condensation, which in turn reduces the potential for mould growth and contributes to a healthier living environment.
Complete Your Aluminium Window System.
Achieving the highest thermal efficiency requires more than just quality frames. For optimal performance, the entire window system—including frames, glazing, and installation—must work together.
ThermalHEART® thermally broken aluminium frames combined with The AGP System® double glazing with argon gas nearly double thermal performance, and when paired with the Centrafix™ Installation System, thermal efficiency is further enhanced by an additional 20%.
