Minnkota Windows Aspekt 1800: Create a Better Space
At the intersection of your vision for a space and our fabrication, a great window begins to take shape. Aspekt 1800 will bring your vision to life. Show us pictures of the beautiful windows you are imagining and we will show you how we can create them with our modern, high-performance system.
COMFORT - Invite in nature's beauty. Block out its fury.
Good windows strike a balance between openness and protection, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors, without feeling exposed to wind, rain, heat, cold and noise. In combination with a well-lit exterior, windows that are strong and tight-fitting can also make your home less vulnerable to intruders.
EASE OF OPERATION & SECURITY
Whether opening your windows to let in some fresh air or to do spring cleaning, they should be easy to operate. Aspekt 1800 casement windows are 3 times easier to operate than traditional hung windows. Casements open wide to the outside, so they can play a role in your family's emergency escape plans.
PROTECTION FROM THE ELEMENTS
With Aspekt 1800, you won't see your curtains blowing or hear your neighbor's dog barking. Thanks to the rugged seal and hardware design, an Aspekt 1800 casement is up to 15 times more air-tight and admits up to 20% less noise than a typical hung window.
EFFICIENCY - A well-insulated exterior is fundamental.
Let our revolutionary Aspekt 1800 casement work for you to achieve energy savings. By combining the properties of uPVC with a sophisticated multi-chambered design and a proprietary, triple-seal technology, Aspekt 1800 outperforms alternative windows. This has a positive impact on your household budget and the environment.
ENERGY SAVINGS
With a glazing capacity of up to 1 3/8" and built-in insulation chambers, Aspekt 1800 delivers up to 35% better energy performance than typical residential windows. With U-Values down to 0.17, it surpasses the values of older windows.
SUSTAINABILITY
Aspekt 1800 not only contributes to sustainability thorugh its superior energy efficiency; the lifecycle of uPVC is more sustainable than wood and alternative materials. uPVC has an 80% lower carbon footprint over its lifespan than aluminum.
DURABILITY - Good as new for decades.
Central to the Minnkota Windows brand is the commitment to innovation that advances state-of-the-art engineering and draws on our 30 year relationship with REHAU. Each frame, hardware element and seal is carefully chosen for peak performance and durability.
EASE OF MAINTENANCE
Aspekt 1800 is virtually maintenance free. The proprietary uPVC formulation resists weathering, so it never needs painting. Thanks to the High-Definition Finish (HDF), smudges can be quickly and easily removed from Aspekt 1800's interior and exterior surfaces using conventional detergents.
WEATHER-RESISTANT MATERIALS
uPVC is naturally resistant to moisture and atmospheric pollutants such as acids and alkalis. It does not dent, warp, corrode or peel. The proprietary uPVC formulation outperforms standard vinyl during weather testing in extreme climates to retain its color and sheen for years.
PERSONALIZATION - One-of-a-kind windows, built locally for you.
Designing your Aspekt 1800 windows doesn't begin with choosing sizes off a chart; it's more like being handed a painter's palette. You have total freedom to enhance the beauty of your space and have a powerful impact on the mood of the people who spend time in it. We'll help you determine what you want, then make it happen.
LUMINOSITY
Aspekt 1800 windows create beautiful contemporary spaces. With clean lines, sleek hardware and many color options, they can be stunning even without window treatments. Their frames are up to 24% slimmer than typical 25-year old residential windows, providing a larger glass area that admits more daylight, which is so instrumental to our health and well-being.
CUSTOMIZATION
Aspekt 1800 custom windows are designed and built for you, drawing on 1500+ design options. We offer operating windows in casement and awning styles as well as fixed picture windows in architectural shapes such as round, triangular, eyebrow and many more.
