Why a bottom-hung tilt-in window in Schüco LivIng Vlak?
The Schüco LivIng Vlak is the LivIng version in which the sash sits in one plane with the outer frame, for a flush, continuous face on the elevation. The windows are tilt and turn, so the sash opens inwards — this is not a British flush casement, which opens out. Schüco LivIng is Schüco's uPVC window and door system: 82 mm frame depth for both outer frame and sash, seven chambers, and glazing from 24 to 52 mm thick. It comes with a rebate seal (Uf 1.00 W/m²K) or a centre seal (Uf 0.96 W/m²K), and reaches up to Rw 47 dB, burglar resistance class RC2, watertightness class 9A and wind load class B5. About the name of this version: the four LivIng versions we supply differ in how the sash looks — how it sits in relation to the outer frame. Which geometry belongs to this name exactly is not in the manufacturer documentation we hold; that documentation names the sash shapes differently. So we don't give millimetres here that we haven't measured. Once it is confirmed, it will be on this page.
Schüco's uPVC system: 82 mm frame depth and Uf 1.00 W/m²K (0.96 with a centre seal).
A bottom-hung window has its hinge at the bottom instead of the side, and that makes it the window for the spot you'd rather not reach with a handle.
A bottom-hung window tilts open inward from the top, with the hinge on the sill. That is the exact opposite of a side-hung casement, which is hinged at the side. The practical result: you can fit a bottom-hung window high in a wall — above a basin, in a WC, above a kitchen worktop — and still operate it without a sash swinging into the room at head height. The opening is set to one fixed gap, not a range of positions as with tilting.
The standard size is 1,100 × 800 mm: wider than it is tall, to suit the narrow strips where a bottom-hung window usually goes. Choose one if you're mainly after ventilation in a spot where you rarely or never look out, and not if you also want to clean the glass from inside there — for that you need to be able to reach the window, as with a side-hung casement.
