My wife and I have gone back and forths on the louvre windows, simply from a maintenance point it takes longer to clean, and we have a pool the same distance from the void as per the display home.
why did you opt for those louvres? also is this an upgrade?
To be honest, I just much preferred the look of them for that space, plus they will provide bit more of a breeze when opened as opposed to the awning which really only opens a small way from the bottom.
We also plan to put a pool in the same location as the Rochedale display. As for cleaning them, that doesn't really bother me. I've lived in a house full of timber venetian blinds, so cleaning these awning windows won't be an issue.
Yes it was an upgrade of $2280.
I think they're gorgeous and if you live in QLD definitely worth the upgrade.
Agreed. I'm actually super annoyed at myself for not thinking of putting one in upstairs instead of the fixed glass window we added to let light into our void. It's easterly facing and would have got a such a nice breeze off the water. Just another thing on the shoulda, woulda, coulda list.
