Eco Windows

Our windows are double pane sealed units with black powder coated aluminum frames and sashes. They are certified by METI (Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry) for their excellent overall heat transfer coefficient value (R-Value). These new guidelines were established in April 2008. Although, due to their size, they do get the highest rating, their location (southern and western sides), the amount of sunshine they will let in each day, and our heavy curtains at night will more than make up for their lower rating in the winter. In the summer, the ventilation system we have designed will eliminate the need for air conditioning on all but the hottest and most humid days. These windows will really pay off in the summer too!
