All too often louvres are thought about last, and are only selected on performance merits, without consideration about how they will interact with the buildings appearance.
Why not satisfy both performance requirements and aesthetics. All HVC louvres are designed to compliment their environment, and also the ventilation system they work with by allowing exceptional performance. See how HVC can work with you to enhance your project.

The largest weather louvre HVC manufactures, WL100 louvres are suitable for truly giant applications, and bring a sense of scale to larger buildings. For this reason WL100 Weather Louvres are as much about the aesthetic value as they are about high performance airflow and rain protection.
Lending itself to strength as much as aesthetics though, the blade design creates a truly rigid louvre, hence the large sizes demanded by the looks can be accommodated structurally.
With the large blades and super-rigid design, you would think that weight however would be a serious issue. The use of extruded aluminium throughout WL100 Weather Louvres though has combated this, making these weather louvres much lighter than you would think; not only making installation easier, but putting less stress on supporting structures.
Just like the whole range of standard weather louvres, we manufacture to order. Whether you need a fully customised WL100 or just a regular rectangular unit, we can supply it.
We never make you pay for something you may not want, that is why all options we supply really are optional. All however are functional, and can enhance the performance of your WL100 Weather Louvre. See the options tab to find out about options specific to WL100 series weather louvres.

WL100s too large?

Integrated Volume Control
A ready made unit incorporating a WL100 louvre and volume control damper, Combi-Units speed up installation time by combining two essential components |

Noise attenuation
Standard louvres are not designed to reduce sound transmission. However, Series AL Acoustic Louvres are. Using an insulated two part blade, noise transfer can be cut effectively |
