Envirosealed Windows™ Advantage

The most energy-efficient windows begin with the best materials. The frame, glass and insulating glass spacer determine how much energy will be saved. The best of each will ensure you maximum savings. Envirosealed Windows™ Advantage combines the best frame with Envirolite™ triple pane IG and argon gas to deliver R6 thermal performance without costly krypton gas

The Frame

Energy performance can be greatly enhanced by superior-performing frame components. EnergyCore™ by Mikron is a new, patent pending insulated frame technology that delivers superior thermal performance. Frame components are co-extruded with a unique, integral air cell insulated core designed to create a superior thermal barrier to save energy costs and keep homes warmer in winter and cooler in summer. In fact, this new technology, combined with nonmetallic reinforcement components, improves energy efficiency by 11 percent compared to ordinary hollow vinyl frames. Plus, it incorporates a higher level of recycled content to be more environmentally smart. It's truly next generation vinyl window technology.

The Glass

Introducing Envirolite™ glass packs, the first program of glass options preselected and modeled to provide optimum glass and spacer combinations. These options will help you hit your U-value target without wasting time and money on unnecessary modeling. Envirolite offers a range of U-value combinations as low as 0.17 (R6) with the flexibility to choose from a variety of glass options.

You have more choices with Envirolite™.

The Spacer

Duralite® spacers from Truseal have the lowest thermal conductivity of any warm edge spacer available. Its no-metal design uses a polycarbonate structure in place of conductive metal spacers, creating pillows of air that help prevent the transfer of heat. Combining the efficiency of Duralite with the glass options of Envirolite™ and the energy-saving Mikron EnergyCore™ frame system, your windows can achieve the lowest possible U-values, save homeowners money on heating and cooling costs, and reduce carbon dioxide production.

Energy savings are important to your customers and meeting current requirements for ARRA Tax Credits, as well as the 2010 ENERGY STAR criteria are just the beginning. Future changes to these requirements are coming and having the windows of tomorrow - today is critical to your success. Duralite ensures the lowest U-values and warmest edge of glass temperature in the industry by more than 3°F above desiccated foam and 14°F above aluminum bar with the best condensation resistance of any spacer system.
