The RS-5605 is a 131mm deep, vertically bladed aluminium performance louvre system, featuring a narrow 25mm blade pitch.
The vertical orientation of the blades allows rain to drain away easily, helping the RS-5605 achieve the best airflow, rain defence and spacial efficiency combination of any louvre in the market, with Class A rain defence up to 3.5 m/s and an Airflow Class of 1.
Featuring a complex, extruded aluminium blade profile that twists the air twice, this high performance louvre system is designed to provide maximum defence against water penetration whilst maintaining excellent airflow characteristics.
The highly robust 1.52mm extruded blades are up to three times thicker than traditional rolled louvre blades and are able to span an exceptional 3.6m.
