Opening and closing high-level windows and rooflights ‘will be a breeze’ with the launch of a new natural ventilation system from GEZE UK.
The new OL Line manual window control system has been designed specifically for commercial and public buildings, and can easily be retrofitted.
The company said: “The OL Line provides an easy, reliable control system for even the most hard-to-reach windows. A manual opener fitted to the opening vent is linked via lengths of conduit and cable to a wall-mounted operator. The conduit can easily be bent around obstructions, allowing the handle to be placed within easy reach.”
This modular system has been designed to be ‘as flexible’ as possible. Multiple vents can be operated from a single operator in a choice of installation arrangements. It is available in a choice of opening widths.
Andy Howland, sales director, said: “Ninety per cent of windows in the UK are hung from the top and open outwards – obviously not a problem when they are positioned within easy reach, but more problematic for remote high-level or difficult-to-access windows. Ultimately, the new system makes natural ventilation a breath of fresh air.”
