We are in the design phase for a new build. We have quite a lot of glazing in our design (lots of North facing windows, including 6 panel opening door) and we are looking through our options for thermal performance. If we were only able to afford one of thermal broken aluminium or low e film, what would you pick? Are they worth it for our climate (Wellington)? Advice welcomed!

It's the window leaf itself that has bowed. Have attached couple of images that hopefully explain it better. It varies with each window but a lot of them have just warped all kinds of ways. The one below is probably a bit hard to see but has bowed in the middle.

Hey all, we have a mid 90's house with a couple of glass brick windows, one of which has started to seep with heavy rain causing the interior sill Gib to crumble. How should I tackle this as I can't see any obvious area where water may be getting in. Cheers

Hi, I'm trying to decide what to do about my window furnishings. I'm thinking in bedrooms to have sheers for privacy and then block out curtains for night, but don't really want double track as sticks out too much. Is it possible to have track inside window frame/recess? and is this a good idea? Any other ideas? It has been suggested I could go with a sheer blind for sun and privacy and curtains for blockout at night. In the rooms is also a wide but small window above window which will probably have a blind? Appreciate any advice
