Salamander / Brügmann BlueEvolution Windows

Hello,

does anyone of you have experience with Salamander windows or have them installed?

We have a pretty good offer for the BlueEvolution 82 and now the question is
whether we should take it....

Thanks a lot in advance

Have a pretty good offer for the BlueEvolution 82

I don't know every window profile system in detail, but basically I don't know of any branded product that one should be warned about. The overall quality of a window is influenced almost equally by the installation as by the quality of the profiles and their assembly. Where does the assessment of an offer as "pretty good" come from?

Where does the assessment of an offer as "quite good" come from?

From various offers from different window manufacturers/suppliers. The Salamander offer is about 13,000 euros cheaper than other received offers... How is it with the fittings? The offer includes Maco fittings, are they any good?

I was not personally responsible for the fittings. But a brand does not ruin its name by choosing a lousy supplier in purchasing. I have heard the name before and do not recall any warnings about it. The price difference is also quite significant, which could not be compensated by retrofitting fittings – so I would be relaxed about that.

Thank you for your assessment, that already helps a good deal.

Since the installation is just as important as the window, one question regarding this.
What must be considered? The company has "Montage nach EnEV2019" in the offer! Does that mean they install according to current guidelines?

To avoid "Operation successful, patient dead": there are window sellers who send subcontractors to install the windows, who somehow just bash the windows into the house, then the windows are installed and the reveals look pathetic and foam celebrations have taken place. Good installation starts with proper measurement. This inevitably means that you can only derive an offer from the plan and must wait for the actually existing shell construction before ordering.

The company has "Installation according to EnEV2019" stated in the offer! Does that mean they install according to current regulations?

No, that is a nice advertising slogan. There is no Energy Saving Ordinance 2019, as the still valid Energy Saving Ordinance (2016) will be replaced by the Building Energy Act. As far as I know, it is currently still in draft form, I am not familiar with its content – and I doubt that it comments on the procedure of window installation. However, I can imagine that the expected tightening of the Building Energy Act compared to the current Energy Saving Ordinance allows conclusions about the ideal installation plane: for example, in the insulation plane; or, with ETICS, how best to adjoin the windows. My window manufacturer episode was just before the currently valid Energy Saving Ordinance, and as a boss I was not involved with installation, but only with warranty and complaints. So I still know a bit about windows relatively fresh, but I was not born with it.
