Ans: The cost. However, the main drawback of aluminium windows is the cost. They are much more expensive to manufacture than uPVC windows; however, you need to balance this out with other considerations, such as their durability and longevity.
Q What is special about aluminum windows?
Ans: This layer is extremely resistant to corrosion from anything the weather can throw at it, including acid rain, and won't be damaged by cleaning products. And unlike timber or PVC-U frames, aluminum window frames won't swell, crack, split or warp over the years whatever the weather.
