Description

The GTS system was the original rooflight system by Vitral, allowing invisble opening panels. This was, and remains unique to Vitral, with all other systems, they require additional framing that is either fitted above the rest of the glazing, or doubled up to increase the sightlines, giving an uneven appearance.

Benefits

  1. With Vitral's slim slightlines being only 48mm in section it offers one of the most descreet systems available, its quick to install, as with all Vitral systems and is cost competitive.
  2. Every other panel can be opening, and the only addition to the system is the actuator.
  3. It is worth considering if ventilation is required for unheated atriums. With single glazing condensation can often occur, especially on warm sunny days. To overcome this it is worth having natural ventilation.
  4. Unheated Atriums - some buildings need a central area covered, quite often some time after the building has been completed. The Vitral GTS system is ideal for this solution for all the reasons that Vitral has become so popular, slim sightlines and quick and cheaper to install and cost competitive.
  5. The Vitral GTS system is ideal for faceted rooflights as it can form a curve with no additional structure. The system's design allows us to open the sections to a hip or valley between each panel to follow the curve of the rooflight.

Additional possibilities

  • GTS comes with 5 years warranty and 2 years warranty for the actuators.
