What Are Residence 9 Windows?
Residence 9, often referred to simply as R9 windows, is a premium uPVC window system designed to recreate the elegant proportions and detailing of traditional timber windows while incorporating modern engineering.
Unlike standard uPVC windows, Residence 9 has been developed with heritage architecture in mind. Its flush exterior, decorative internal detailing and deep profiles create a sophisticated appearance that suits both period and contemporary properties.
The system features a nine-chamber profile, helping to deliver impressive thermal performance while maintaining the classic aesthetic homeowners are looking for.

- Victorian properties
- Georgian houses
- Country cottages
- Village homes
- Barn conversions

Residence 9 windows are engineered to provide excellent thermal performance, helping to:

Are Residence 9 Windows Suitable for Modern Homes?
Absolutely.

Its clean flush design and premium finish create a sophisticated appearance that works beautifully alongside contemporary architecture, making it an increasingly popular choice for homeowners seeking something more distinctive than a standard uPVC window.
