Simon Simon Solar Horizontal and Vertical Systems Shading Elliptical Blade, C Blade and Z Blade Options Simon Air Management Systems
The drive towards reducing energy consumption is a major objective for most building designers and to maximise natural lighting without the problems of glare or excessive solar heat gain. By selecting the most appropriate solar shading system for your projects you can achieve the functional performance whilst enhancing the aesthetic requirements of your building Reduced solar gain improves occupants comfort. Solar shading benefits Properly designed external shading can significantly reduce solar heat gain and minimise the use of mechanical cooling systems. Complementing solar shading with air conditioning or mechanical ventilation will reduce running costs and reduced CO2 emissions. When correctly position solar shading will reduce direct glare whilst allowing high levels of diffused (indirect) natural light, giving a further potential energy saving by reducing artificial lighting needs. External shading allows natural ventilation through opening windows, can provide privacy by shielding glazing and an uninterrupted view to the outside. Comfort conditions can be achieved using a combination of solar shading and night time cooling in buildings that suffer from overheating. We can offer systems which consist of fixed blade or controllable options, in vertical or horizontal configurations, made from aluminium or glass fins with Z C and Elliptical blade options R.W. Simon also provide a RIBA approved CPD on the benefits of Solar Shading and Night Cooling For more information email: cpd@rwsimon.co.uk
