Thermal Aluminium Windows & Doors for Upper Hutt Multi-residential

Solari Architects & Urban Company

Located at 44 Kilbirnie Crescent, Wellington, St Giles Park View is a modern townhouse development designed to deliver comfortable, energy-efficient living within a well-connected urban environment.

Designed by Solari Architects and developed by Urban Company, the project reflects a strong focus on thermal compliance, practical design, and long-term resident comfort.

This project continues UNO's ongoing partnership with Solari Architects following the successful completion of 18 Oxford Street in Tawa, where UNO supported H1 compliance, acoustic performance requirements, and specification guidance across the development.

Supporting H1 compliance through early project involvement

Thermal performance was a key consideration throughout the planning stages of St Giles Park View. The project team required practical solutions to help achieve H1 compliance while maintaining design intent and construction efficiency.

Key project considerations included:

Supporting H1 compliance from the early design stages
Assisting with H1 construction R-value calculations and compliance pathways
Providing practical detailing suggestions to improve overall thermal performance
Coordinating the manufacture and delivery of 183 aluminium window and door units
Supporting efficient installation by the builder

Early collaboration allowed thermal performance requirements to be considered alongside the architectural design, helping create efficient and compliant project outcomes.

How does UNO help you comply with H1 Requirements?

UNO has been involved from the early stages of the project, assisting with H1 construction R-value calculations and practical detailing suggestions to support compliance.

The UNO Non-Thermal suite was specified throughout the development alongside Clear Low E glazing to support thermal performance, natural light, and comfortable living environments.

Working closely with the project team during planning and design development allowed thermal performance requirements to be addressed early, helping streamline compliance and specification decisions.

The carefully considered joinery solution supports the project's goal of delivering warm, energy-efficient homes for future residents.
