Magasinet, Varvsstaden, Malmö - Simple window (fixed) - Impact on the appearance only from the inside - Uw 1.3 W/m²K

A rubble glazing cassette was added on the inside of the repaired original windows.

On the inside of existing windows, a window cassette of a modern type will be installed. Window manufacturers have been contacted to select the appropriate window cassette. A thermal window will be installed to achieve a low U-value to keep energy consumption down and reduce the risk of frostbite. There have been some limitations when choosing a window cassette. It involves large windows and too heavy constructions that are difficult to assemble without the aesthetic expression of the building being at risk of being disturbed. To ensure that the space between the window cassette and existing glass does not get too hot, and thus risk the old windows cracking from the heat, some care has been taken with too low U and G values. The selected window cassettes have been considered suitable from this point of view by the window supplier. Existing windows are preserved and consist of glass in cast iron windows. Some glasses have been replaced and then consist of flat glass. Other glass is cylinder-blown glass from the time of construction (probably 2-3 mm thick). The ratio between replaced glass and original glass is about 1:3. The solar shading cannot be placed on the outside of the building as it affects the aesthetic and cultural values of the building. Sun shielding will therefore be on the inside.
