Tilt and Turn windows

duvet77 · 31 Jul 2008

Hey guys.

Our house as been fiited with upvc tilt and turn windows by the previous occupier. The problem is there are no trickle vents in the frame, nor is there a lockable vent position... unless i'm being really dim and jusy can't engage it!

Any thoughts on something I can retro fit to secure the window in a 'slightly open position' but allows me to fully open it when required.

I too have these fitted by a previous owner. You have no choice. open or shut. Open is not enough in the summer, but too much in the winter. But mine are too good to replace.
