The reality of Batumi new buildings: Developers frequently install low-grade, single-glazed cold frames. In subtropical conditions with 90% humidity and sea winds up to 30 m/s, these frames conduct outdoor temperatures directly inside, flood sills during horizontal rain, and breed persistent black mold behind curtains.
Common issues faced by apartment owners in Batumi
Residential towers along the coast (Orbi City, White Sails, Calligraphy, Horizon, New Boulevard complexes) endure intense seasonal coastal squalls.
1. Relentless wind howl
Thin sashes with only 2 locking points bend outwards under negative wind pressure, causing an incessant acoustic whistling noise.
2. Water ingress during storms
Without engineered drainage channels and proper waterproofing membranes, wind-driven rain penetrates the building perimeter, damaging floors and drywall.
3. Condensation & black mold
Uninsulated aluminium stays icy cold in winter. Contact with humid indoor air forms puddle-level condensation, triggering harmful fungal growth.
4. Construction noise
Single 4mm glass panes fail to block 24/7 pile-driving and street traffic sound, disrupting sleep and work-from-home comfort.
Facade-compliant replacement methodology
Building administration guidelines prohibit external modifications. We protect your architectural compliance:
- Exact RAL color matching: External powder coatings replicate the building’s original anthracite or metallic tone seamlessly.
- Preserving natural daylight: Slim-line ASAS profiles maximize glass surface area.
- Clean dismantling: We remove developer frames without disrupting interior parquet or exterior facade panels.
- Triple-barrier sealing: Vapor-permeable exterior tape, structural polyurethane foam, and interior moisture seals safeguard the joint for decades.
Recommended systems for apartment retrofit
- ASAS RWT64 (64.2mm depth, 24mm thermal break): Optimal for bedrooms and living rooms. Accommodates double glazed acoustic units up to 44mm with laminated safety glass for quiet, thermal security.
- ASAS RST116 (Lift & Slide panoramic door): Engineered for wide balcony exits. Supports sash weights up to 300kg, glides effortlessly on stainless steel rails, and withstands hurricane-force coastal winds.
