Glass Options

Glass packages impact your heating and cooling costs, as well as security, acoustics and more. Customize your windows for desired performance and to meet ENERGY STAR® guidelines in any region.

ProSolar® Low-E Glass
  • Standard

    Pro Solar® Low-E Glass helps keep warm air in during the winter months. In summer, it helps deflect external heat and retains cooled air.

  • Optional

    Pro Solar® Shade Low-E Glass offers superior solar control and insulating performance, making it ideal for warmer climates with more intensive interior cooling needs.

  • Optional

    ProSolar® Sun Low-E Glass lets in the warming sun’s rays while blocking heat loss, helping to keep homes warm in cooler climates that require more energy to heat.


Gas Fill
Standard

Argon gas (six times denser than air) is sealed between the glass panes to increase insulation and reduce energy loss.

Optional

Upgrade to Krypton gas (twelve times denser than air) for maximum thermal efficiency.

Glass Upgrades
  • Sound & Security Glass

    Laminated glass consists of a durable interlayer sealed between two layers of glass that resists forced entry, significantly diminishes unwanted sound and deflects up to 99% of damaging ultraviolet (UV) rays that can cause interior fading.

  • Safety Glass

    Heat-strengthened tempered glass is stronger than regular glass and safely breaks down into pebbles if broken. Tempered glass is often a building code requirement for use in bathrooms and windows near the floor.

  • Privacy Glass

    Obscure glass has a textured pattern to maximize privacy while allowing ample natural light into your home.

  • Tinted Glass

    Bronze or gray tinted glass helps control solar heat gain and reduce glare and visibility into your home.


Gas Fill
Standard

Argon gas (six times denser than air) is sealed between the glass panes to increase insulation and reduce energy loss.

Optional

Upgrade to Krypton gas (twelve times denser than air) for maximum thermal efficiency.

Spacer Systems

Glass panes are separated by a spacer system, which helps seal in functional gas and create an airtight seal.

Standard

The non-metallic foam Super Spacer® is non-conductive and virtually eliminates temperature transfer.

5500 Design Options

Cam Locks

The cam lock pulls your window sash together to keep it locked, secure and weather resistant. Cam locks are found on double hung and sliding windows.

Nesting Crank Handle

Casement and awning windows feature a convenient nesting handle that folds neatly away into the base and a multi point locking lever that secures the window.

Color-matched Crank Handle & Lock Finishes

  • Triple-pane Glass

    Three panes of double strength glass create two separate air spaces for optimal thermal performance and interior comfort.

  • Sound & Security Glass
