Louvre Maintenance Recommendations Maintenance after installation completed Inspection and lubricating is suggested to be carried out monthly, or varied to a shorter time depending upon the location, and environmental conditions. Inspection Check all screws are secure and in position. Inspect all points of linkages and clips are in position. Check that all louvre blades open and close correctly. Check that seals are in place. Cleaning Use a chamois with mild detergent to clean louvre glass holding clips, aluminium channel, handles, linkages and surround frame. Do not allow water entry into internal mechanism via the handle aperture. Rinse with clean water. Clean glass blades with any recognised window cleaner solution. Do not use cleaning agents with a caustic base or abrasive products which may effect the surface on a long term basis. Surface finishes are: Anodized to µm or Polyester powder coating to standard colour charts. Lubrication The louvre internal operating mechanism is pre-lubricated prior to assembly with a non-migrating lubricant, and is satisfactory for the life of the window. If it is necessary to lubricate the internal handle connecting joints, then use either a light machine oil or a clear lubricant, e.g. silicone, to all handle and connecting link pivots as required. To maintain a smooth surface face of the extruded and anodized or polyester powder painted louvre channel section, apply and wipe over with car polish which will help maintain lustre finish. All mechanisms should be free and smooth to operate, with all louvre blades opening and closing firmly together. Adjust if necessary. Timber louvre blades All timber blades should be sealed with a lacquer or paint to suit the location where louvres are installed, e.g. interior / exterior. Always remember as timber is a natural product, grain and colour variation will occur when a clear lacquer or oil is used. Locks The handle lock is designed to be maintenance free, however, if the need arises that the lock has to be replaced due to a malfunction, contact your louvre installer. /- Co.
