List of featured suppliers of WINDOW REVEALS Thermal Bridging Thermal Breaks on Building Products Index
Window reveals refer to the area surrounding the opening where a window is installed. Thermal bridging occurs when materials with high thermal conductivity allow heat to transfer easily through a building's envelope, resulting in energy loss and increased heating or cooling costs. Thermal breaks are designed to interrupt this transfer of heat by adding a layer of insulation or barrier material to reduce thermal bridging and improve a building's energy efficiency.
