Curtain wall glazing would be a better choice for your residential building

Today, more and more people prefer to retro-fit their home with a variety of residential curtain wall systems and glass partition walls. In most cases, if they are installed correctly, curtain wall systems can provide excellent structural integrity, as there are fewer mullions and joints required.

1. NATURAL LIGHTING FOR WORK FRIENDLY SUITES
Natural light is one of the big benefits for curtain wall buildings, which is often considered as a selling point for property management firms to use when leasing units. The light is amazing. Because you are not dealing with traditional type walls, the curtain wall lets in plenty of natural light. The benefit to workers is that the natural light is easier on the eyes and shows colors that are truer. In addition, a curtain wall building offers you a panoramic view. Every seat in the house is a corner office. The view is also something that property managers use to lease units. Put the view of the High Desert to work for you.

2. AIR TIGHT CONSTRUCTION BOOSTS ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Because of the way that the glass blocks fit their aluminum frame, they provide an air tight fit. That fit helps to seal the building so that warm air is not lost during the winter and during the hotter months of the year while cool air is kept inside too. Meanwhile, glass curtain walls can also help to reflect UV radiation so that the building does not become an oven during summers. The energy efficiency that curtain walls provide help keep the cost of building operations as low as possible. It also means that tenants will be disturbed less frequently, which would be another selling point for renting units.

3. WATERPROOF INSTALLATION
The sealant used during installation is also a moisture proof barrier. That means that rain and moisture will not enter the building so long as the sealant is intact. The sealant should be inspected periodically to make sure that it remains in good condition. Curtain wall manufacturers print installation instructions that must be followed by the glazing contractor to insure a water tight building and keep the warranty intact. Furthermore, curtain wall offers a durable and protective option that helps in the prevention of water damage. In recent years, more and more people tend to uses building structural materials that are resistant to corrosion in their curtain wall construction.
