What is Heat Mirror®? |
TOP |
| |
Heat Mirror glass is a patented triple-glazed unit that suspends a proprietary mix of metals unto a polyester substrate that is suspended between two pieces of glass.
The result is a highly-insulated glass unit with center-of-glass R-values as high as R9.1, and a glass unit that filters out 99.5% of the harmful ultra violet rays. Sound deadening is also improved with the double chamber created in a triple unit. |
| |
| |
What are the benefits of Heat Mirror® technology? |
TOP |
| |
Heat Mirror is an exceptional glass option offered by Stanek Windows.
This super-insulated glass unit offers better insulation, sound deadening and ultra violet protection than most others offered on the market today.

How does the patented Heat Mirror® glass compare to conventional insulated glass? |
TOP |
| |
Heat Mirror glass is an extraordinary insulated glass unit that excels in insulation values, ultra vilolet protection and sound deadening qualities.
Considering that a window is 85% glass, high performance glass is a must! |
| |
| |
How does Heat Mirror compare to LowE/Argon? |
TOP |
| |
Stanek Windows offers both LowE/Argon and three levels of Heat Mirror (System 4, System 6 & System 9).
Low-Emissivity glass has a metallic coating applied to the glass, whereas Heat Mirror suspends a metallic coated mylar substrate between two pieces of double strength glass.
The triple-glazed Heat Mirror units will outperform the LowE/Argon in winter heat savings, summer cooling and filtering of harmul ultra violet rays. Sound deadening is also better with a triple-glazed Heat Mirror unit. |

What is better, wood or vinyl windows? |
TOP |
| |
Both are good insulating materials, but vinyl is a better choice for a high-energy window because it will not rot, swell, split or be affected in any way by the elements.
You will love our woodgrain interiors that look exactly like wood, without any of the maintenance. Think about it...never stain, paint or varnish again. No need to worry about the window left open during a rainstorm! |
| |
| |
Most window companies discuss their special combination of glass and films that reduce sound transmission. No one quantifies this sound reduction. Using words means nothing but marketing jargon. How do I find the best vinyl window design that reduces sound transmission the most, quantitatively? |
TOP |
| |
No, it's more than marketing jargon. In fact, the best method to finding the window of choice is by asking for referrals and letting the customers themselves tell you about sound reduction after having the windows installed.
In one of our many letters, Pam Clark writes back, "It's beautiful inside and out and the noise it keeps out is remarkable. The dog can't hear the cars in the driveway anymore."
It is one of the many benefits of new Stanek Windows. A triple-glazed Heat Mirror glass unit has an STC of 34.
A 34 STC window will provide roughly 34dB of attenuation, reducing a 75dB noise to 41dB.
Testing was done through Southwall Technologies. If you would like more information, please contact us at 1-800-4-STANEK. |

I noticed condensation on the exterior of my windows. Is this normal? |
TOP |
| |
Yes, under the right conditions, exterior moisture may form for a short period on the outside of a glass unit.
This wipeable moisture is simply dew, the same dampness found on your lawn, siding, cars, etc.
This phenomenon is quite common with super insulated windows. The new windows are so efficient that they do not allow the warmer inside temperature to escape to the outside. Therefore the outer pane of glass stays colder, and the moisture in the air collects on this colder surface
This is short-lived annoyance will disappear as soon as the exterior temperature rises and warms up the exterior piece of glass.
Nothing to worry about! It actually demonstrates how well your windows are working. |
| |
| |
Will your Stanek Windows sweat or condensate? |
TOP |
| |
Please understand that all windows can sweat under the right conditions. Windows do not cause condensation . The two factors that contribute to condensation are surface temperature and humidity levels.
CRF is condensation resistance level – this is the ability of the window to resist condensation.
The lower the U-value / higher the R-value (better insulated), the better the ability to resist moisture due to a warmer surface temperature. Remember, you control the humidity level in your home.
A good analogy would be two identical glasses of ice tea – one with one ice cube and the other with five ice cubes. The one with five cubes will sweat or condensate more because the surface of the glass is colder.
Always choose the best insulated glass available to reduce condensation. |

What is Aller-Guard? |
TOP |
| |
Aller-Guard is a special, patented pile insulation weatherstripping that is used on Stanek windows.
This resistent seal prevents dust and dirt particles from entering windows. It is also patented and tested to kill and resist mold and mildew.
Reducing the infiltration of allergens and pollutants ensures a cleaner, healthier, and more comfortable indoor environment. |
