  325 Series

One of our most thermally effiicient windows. Cutting edge design and construction make the 325 one of the best high performance windows available. Substantial, tight-sealing, casements and awnings have a unique pressure equalization system that enables them to resist hurricane-force winds and rain. A great choice for coastal or exposed building sites.

 

•  325 casement, awning and picture have 3/4” or 1" thick double-pane glass.
•  Heavy-duty reinforced frames with triple weather-stripped vents.
•  Wind resistance rating of 190 miles per hour.
•  Roto-crank ventilators allow you to control and direct air flow.
•  Triple pane glass option available for extra energy efficiency and savings.
•  Interior-mounted screens of fiberglass mesh are nearly transparent.
•  Interior screens recess into window frames, and are held by plunger pins.
•  Options include corrosion-resistant hardware and fold-away crank handles.
•  Remote access roto-operator poles are also available.

* Cardinal XL Edge Dual Seal Insulated Glass Units without grids.

** Triple Pane- LoE366/Argon/Clear/Argon/LoE179 insulated glass unit. For 59" x 24" awning, 1³/8" overall thickness. No grids.


“U” Factor: The rate of heat flow through a given glazing. The lower the number, the better the insulating quality.


Solar Heat Gain Coefficient: The fraction of direct solar radiation that enters a building through the glass as heat. Lower numbers mean the glazing lets less heat in.


Visible Light Transmittance: Measures the amount of light transmitted through the glass. VLT is expressed as a number between 0 and 1. The higher the VLT, the more light is transmitted.
