Vinyl Windows Ottawa
Combination welding Corners give alluring appearance and dispense with the requirement for cement and sealants. There are no flaws on the totally watertight and hermetically sealed surface. Inside dividers are likewise welded for expanded by and large underlying strength.
A decision of support free PVC pillar augmentations, outline moldings and corner blocks are accessible to upgrade inside wrapping up.
Super Spacer
THE PRODUCT
Warm edge technology is more than just a low-conductive product that helps make windows more thermally efficient, The warm edge spacer is the actual seal that keeps the glass package in windows from failing.
Super Spacer…
the winning choice for the industry’s most durable insulating glass units.
There are two types of insulating glass systems on the market today: Single seal and dual seal systems. Single seal units are constructed of only one type of sealant, which is called upon to perform double-duty. Not only must the sealant retard the infiltration of moisture vapour, but it must also hold the unit together under a wide variety of both high and low temperatures while withstanding the effects of high humidity and ultraviolet exposure.
Super Spacer® is a dual seal insulating glass system. This NO-Metal, structural foam spacer clearly resists condensation, reduces energy costs, provides long-life durability and adds both comfort and value to your windows.

The Problem
A new window can lose up to 50% of its overall stated R-value with a metal-based spacer at the edge of the glass. R stands for the “resistance” of the transfer of heat or cold through a solid object. So, a higher R-value means better insulation against heating and cooling loss.
The edge of the insulating glass is the most vulnerable to heating and cooling loss. This usually leads to condensation. It’s a problem that looks unsightly, and over time, it will stain wood, peel paint and rot frames.
Not only that, but window condensation can contribute to mold growth, a sinister presence hidden from sight deep inside window and wall openings.
In fact, visible mold can often be found in poorly insulated or installed windows. Mold is more and more being linked to child asthma plus increases in general respiratory illness, allergies and outbreaks of fungal diseases.
The Solution
The primary window condensation culprit is its insulating glass spacer. Traditional metal spacers can conduct heat and cold – causing condensation at the edge of the glass.
Convection currents further concentrate cold air along the bottom edge of glass making that area the most vulnerable.
Only a warmer edge all the way around will strike at the heart of the problem.
The world’s only TrueWARM® edge occurs with Super Spacer®, an insulating foam spacer whose usage helps reduce condensation and allows for comfortable household humidity levels. That’s the Health Smart Windows® advantage.
Glass Options
CLEAR GLASS
Clear glass units provide improved noise reduction compared to single-pane glass.
They allow heat and cold air to pass through more freely than insulated options,
making them a basic and cost-effective choice for standard window applications.
LOW-E GLASS
Low-E (Low Emissivity) glass is designed to enhance year-round energy efficiency.
In winter, it reduces heat loss by reflecting interior warmth back into the room
while allowing natural sunlight to enter as usable solar heat. In summer, it helps
limit the amount of hot outdoor air entering the home, keeping interiors cooler.
Low-E glass also blocks a significant portion of harmful UV rays, which are a major
cause of fading and deterioration of fabrics, flooring, and carpets. This results
in improved comfort and lower energy costs throughout the year.
TRIPLE GLASS
Triple-pane glass windows offer the highest level of energy efficiency available.
With an additional pane of glass and insulating air spaces, they effectively keep
cold air out during winter and warm air out during summer.
Advanced coatings are often applied to further improve performance by reducing
solar heat gain and increasing insulation. Triple glass windows are ideal for
extreme climates and homeowners seeking maximum comfort, noise reduction, and
energy savings.
