How to Select the Right Performance Louvre for Your Next Project

Although every commercial and industrial building requires louvres, either for ventilation or simply as a vision screen, there in often insufficient consideration given to exactly what the system is required to achieve. This is particularly common when it comes to "Performance Louvre" and the need to exclude wind driven rain.

When selecting a louvre these basic factors must be considered;

  • How important is rain defence?
  • Is maximum air flow crucial to your design's success?
  • Is it simply an architectural vison screen, with the sole function of ensuring plant equipment is hidden from sight and therefore zero vision is the priority?

Ultimately, everyone wants 100% rain defence and 100% air flow. However, this is not always achievable and there is a compromise between these two performance factors. In Australia the AS/NZS 4740:2000 sets out the test method and standard for testing natural ventilators.

This method of testing and performance classification provides "comparative" performance data for both Rain Defence and Airflow and offers protection to the specifier and clear guidance to contractors on project requirements and performance expectations.
