We offer a number of different replacement windows to choose from, one of which is the Casement/Awning window.  The Casement has triple weather-stripping making it extraordinarily airtight, which in turn reduces your heating and air conditioning costs.  Casement windows can also accommodate glazing of most thicknesses, including single, double, triple and Low-E glazing along with a glazed decorative panel (1/8” to 1 3/8”).  Additional features to choose from are; maintenance-free exterior uPVC available for brick or board walls, maintenance-free uPVC jamb extender frame moldings, and there are also corner blocks available to enhance the finishing.  The Casement/Awning window is the most popular replacement window on the market today because of the contemporary look, excellent ventilation and the fact that this window cat be set in rows, or put with other window styles to create striking walls of light and glass.

The Single/Double Slider Tilt window is another replacement window style we make.  This window has interior glazing beads that represent a fundamental security feature allowing the window to withstand winds over 330 km/hr.  The double walls of the sash give this window increased sound reprieve qualities and strength.

Building codes and insurance industry channels are driving the residential hurricane windows market.

Hurricane Windows

Standards for hurricane windows increased in the wake of Hurricane Andrew in 1992. In addition to strong, gusting winds and torrential downpours, hurricanes are powerful enough to hurl objects into structures, and specifically windows. Miami-Dade County, Florida was hit particularly hard by Andrew, and imposed some of the toughest building codes in the country.

To design hurricane windows that comply with Miami-Dade County and other hurricane impact requirements, many factors must be taken into consideration, including the design of PVC profiles, glass specifications, methods by which the windows are anchored, and the methods of attaching the glass to the window sash.

Euro-Tech’s single-hung, double-hung and casement/awning hurricane windows are the few all-uPVC windows to have successfully withstood the merciless Miami-Dade County Large Missile impact and Cyclic Pressure Tests in compliance with the Miami-Dade/AAMA Association Window System Approval. Our hurricane windows will withstand winds beyond 225 kilometres an hour, and hold up to a two by four stud shot directly at the window multiple times at a speed of 55 kilometres an hour.

Our hurricane window profile system exceeds maximum rating standards and some of its features outclass those of all windows on the market. Euro-Tech’s windows are ideal for homes built on seacoasts, in humid regions, and in other areas subject to extreme weather conditions.

Finally, the look and style you are seeking comes in the best combination of protection and comfort a window can provide. Virtually maintenance-free! You’ll never have to paint or stain ever again.

Your hurricane windows will keep on looking great in every season, year after year.

Follow these five steps if you’re currently looking to purchase the most energy efficient windows available.

Most Energy Efficient Windows

1) Look for the Energy Star label on the windows you purchase. The Energy Star symbol represents the most energy efficient windows you can buy.

2) Not all windows are created equally. Canada has been divided into four climate zones by the federal department of Natural Resources. Windows sold in each zone must meet certain standards to be granted the Energy Star label. All of Southern and Eastern Ontario falls into Zone B. The label should indicate that the windows are Energy Star qualified for the area you live.

3) Make sure to ask for the most energy efficient windows when you place your order. Ask questions of your window retailer, and ensure they offer windows that meet Energy Star standards.

4) Make sure your windows are properly installed. Having the most energy efficient windows won’t help you if the installation is not perfect. The best way to ensure proper installation of windows is to have them installed by trained professionals to manufacturers’ specifications. This also ensures that your warranty for your windows is not voided. When hiring a company to install your windows, look for a company that has been in business for many years, and ask for references.

5) Keep your receipts and Energy Star labels. The most energy efficient windows may be eligible for provincial or federal tax rebates. Ask your salesperson for more details on how you can obtain rebates for your new windows.
Installing the most energy efficient windows will reduce your home energy costs by as much as 12 percent.
