Living Rooms
With Altair Louvres you can keep a comfortable living environment in summer throughout the day without the need for air conditioning. Alternatively in winter, Altair Louvres seal tight to provide protection from the elements. They don’t make louvres like they use to!
Dining Rooms
Impress your guests with walls of Altair Louvre Windows in your dining areas. Open up the area to bring the outside in and really enjoy the true beauty of what Mother Nature has to offer while entertaining and enjoying meals with family.
Kitchens
Keep your kitchen smelling fresh with Altair Louvres that open wide and help flush out cooking smells. Consider customising your handle positions so reaching over bench tops is easier and more efficient when opening or closing your louvres. Or opt for the Powerlouvre System up high to operate louvres more conveniently.
Bedrooms
Altair Louvres can help keep a bedroom comfortable. Installing louvres next to sliding doors can connect you to your outdoor surroundings even when doors are closed. Mix and swap louvre blades depending on the season. Aluminium or timber blades can achieve shading and privacy while glass blades maximise views.
Bathrooms and Laundries
Altair Louvres in the bathroom allow steam to escape quickly and removes the build-up of condensation when dryers are running in the laundry. They function perfectly when a tall, narrow window is called for and can provide privacy in bathrooms if installed with frosted glass, timber or aluminium blades.
Louvres near/in Doors
Altair Louvres are most commonly installed into bi-fold or sliding doors so the louvres can be opened to allow ventilation into the house even if the doors remained closed. When designing your louvres into door frames, it is highly recommended you use the low profile handle for the most functional fit.
Please be advised. The installation of Altair Louvre Componentry into doors is highly customised and is only available from some fabricators. We recommend this installation be completed by an experienced DIY enthusiast or your local builder.
Outdoor Rooms
Altair Louvres can be used to enclose outdoor balconies so you can create extra year-round living space for the whole family to enjoy. Install timber or aluminium blades to give your family the privacy they desire from neighbours. Altair Louvres in outdoor rooms also act as a primary noise barrier for other rooms due to their tight sealing. View the Outdoor Flyer for more information.
External Facades
By incorporating Altair Louvres into your external facade you can add a whole new dimension to the look and feel of the project. Be inspired by the full range of colourful blade options including glass, timber or powder coated aluminium.
Walkways & Internal Ventilation
To cool a room effectively, fresh air must enter and stale air must exit. If a room has only one outside wall, this can be difficult. Altair Louvre Windows are great for internal walls because they provide ample ventilation and fit any space. Louvres made of timber, aluminium, or obscure glass maintain privacy.
Classrooms & Learning Areas
Natural ventilation is important in learning environments as it helps stimulate young minds, improves learning outcomes and reduces illness. By installing Altair Louvres into classrooms and learning areas children can also maintain a connection to the outdoor world.
Office Spaces
Altair Louvres can provide beautiful lines and architectural detail to any office space. They are best for maximising external views and enhancing internal air circulation but also keep rooms quiet when closed due to their tight sealing.
Sporting Facilities
Altair Louvres are ideal for installation into sporting venues or multi-purpose halls as they open wide to fully ventilate the area and keep occupants comfortable when viewing or participating in activities. Breezway offers a range of window systems including automation and screening options for these types of environments.
Aged Care
Altair Louvres are ideal for maintaining a comfortable and healthy indoor environment in aged care facilities. Designed to open twice as wide as any other window types, Altair Louvres can flush out built-up air to help reduce the transmission of infectious illnesses.
