Louvre Window Advantages
- Breezes can be captured no matter which direction the wind is blowing.
- Louvres can be left open in gentle rain.
- Louvres do not project far beyond the surrounding wall so do not impede paths of travel.
- Ideal for internal windows to further cool and refresh the building.
- Louvres can be cleaned from the inside of the building (a big advantage in multi-floor buildings).

Altair Louvre Windows
Altair Louvres can be fitted into a variety of aluminium and timber window frame systems available through our network of Window Manufacturers.
Natural ventilation is crucial for maintaining the quality of indoor air in any environment. It not only helps to keep the air we breathe clean and fresh but also allows us to stay connected to nature. In addition, it can significantly reduce our energy expenses.
Over the years, Louvre Windows have undergone significant changes since they first appeared in the late 1930s. Despite these changes, they remain a popular and functional choice for windows. Breezway Altair Louvre Windows, in particular, have a unique design that allows them to open twice as wide as other window types. This design feature provides maximum ventilation and enables a natural cooling effect in living or working spaces without the need for artificial air conditioning systems.
