Passive House Institute Dr. Wolfgang Feist 64283 Darmstadt GERMANY Certified Passive House component for cool, temperate climate, valid until 31.12.2014 Category: Manufacturer: Product name: Window Frame Hilzinger FBS GmbH 53909 Zülpich, GERMANY VADB-Plus 550 The following comfort criteria were used in awarding this certificate: Passive House Efficiency Class Given a Ug value of 0.70 W/(m²K) and a window size of 1.23 m by 1.48 m, UW = phA advanced component 0.76 W/(m²K) ≤ 0.80 W/(m²K) Taking into account the installation based thermal bridges, and provided that the installation is, with regard to the thermal bridges, equal or better than shown in the data sheet, the window meets the following criterion. UW,installed phB basic component ≤ 0.85 W/(m²K) phC certifiable component Thermal data of the window frame Spacer Bottom Side/top Uf-value Width [W/(m²K)] [mm] 0.68 0.64 100 75 Ψg fRsi=0.25 [W/(mK)] TPS* 0.024 0.026 [-] 0.73 *Spacers of lower thermal quality, especially those made of aluminium, lead to significantly higher thermal losses and lower temperature factors.

If better glazing is used, the window U-value decrease as follow: U Glazing Ug [W/(m²K)] 0.66 0.60 0.54 U Window UW [W/(m²K)] 0.73 0.68 0.63 Depending on the thermal losses through opaque elements, windows are categorised according to efficency classes. These thermal losses include the losses through the frame, multiplied by its width, the thermal bridge at the edge bondedge bond as well as the length of the edge bond.
