UPVC Vs Wood Vs Aluminium

	Wooden Doors/windows	Aluminium Doors/windows	Eurekaws UPVC Doors/windows
Maintenance	Needs continuous painting to maintain	Needs painting over a long period of use	Do not need any painting only needs a routine cleaning
Durability under Extreme weather conditions	Start fading very soon, moisture accumulates in cold climatic conditions and need regular polishing.	Can start fading after getting exposed to sunlight, and hence need repolishing.	UV – resistant blends do not fade under sustained exposure to sunlight.
Aesthetics	Look wise good.	Can look cold and out of proportion.	Appearance is good from both the exterior and interior of the building.
Energy conservation	Poor conductors of heat, conserve more energy than Aluminium doors and windows.	These are good conductors of heat. Hence there will be a loss of energy.	Are poor conductors of heat. They have excellent sealing with multiple point locks and fusion-welded joints. Hence conserve energy.
Sound insulation	Are poorly engineered and sealed hence provide poor sound insulation.	These are poorly sealed and poorly installed hence give poor sound insulation.	These are fusion-welded and locks, at multiple points, double sealed and hence give excellent sound insulation.
Termite resistance	Wooden windows and doors are prone to termites.	Aluminium doors and windows do not attract termites.	UPVC doors and windows are not termite prone.
Ventilation	These tend to have more frames leaving less area for ventilation.	These have more frames hence less area for ventilation.	UPVC doors and windows are structurally long and require fewer frames giving more ventilation.
Sunlight	Wooden doors and windows have poor structural strength, and need more members, limiting the amount of sunlight.	Aluminum doors and windows have hollow and poor structural frames, hence need more members, providing less sunlight.	UPVC doors and windows are steel-reinforced, hence structurally strong, allows a large amount of sunlight to pass.
Addition to value of home	Wooden doors and windows start to deteriorate with time hence do not have long life and do not add to the value of home.	Aluminium doors and windows needs more maintenance and hence do not add to the value of home.	UPVC doors and windows need less maintenance and life long life and hence add long term value to the home.
Ease to use	Wooden doors and windows have poor quality hardware which does not last long, leading to difficult user experience.	Aluminium doors and windows have poor quality hardware which does not last long leading to difficult user experience.	Eurekaws UPVC windows and doors use international quality hardware which makes the use of it easy.
