All insulating glass windows claim to save you money on energy costs. However, not all insulating glass windows are created equal. Windows made by Vista Window Company using Seal Smart™ insulating glass, can not only save you significant money on energy costs, but their warm edge design helps to make your home feel more comfortable too.
You can get the Seal Smart™ advantage utilizing the intercept spacer system from PPG (standard), or by upgrading to Super Spacer™, a revolutionary structural foam spacer that provides even warmer edge of glass temperatures.
The Seal Smart Glazing System gives you the ability to custom configure your Insulated Glass Units. Here are some examples:Seal Smart PLUS - two panes of glass, double stacked LowE coating and Argon Gas.Triad A - three panes of glass, double stacked LowE coating and Argon Gas.Triad K - three panes of glass, double stacked LowE coating and Krypton Gas.Triad 7 (new) - three panes of glass, TWO layers of double stacked LowE and Argon Gas.Seal Smart Xtreme - three panes of glass, two layers of double stacked LowE and Krypton Gas.
Making the right glass choice is arguably the most important decision when purchasing new windows for your home. Be sure to have your remodeling professional educate you about the features and benefits of all the Seal Smart glazing options.

Enhanced Warm Edge with Super Spacer™
The insulated glass unit is the engine of your window�it drives thermal efficiency, lets in sunlight and protects you from harmful UV rays. Part of that engine is the glass SPACER. The glass spacer is what holds together the two (or three) pieces of glass that make up the �unit�. Thus the term, Insulated Glass Unit (IG).
Vista Window Company is proud to offer you the option of upgrading to the very best spacer system in the world today�Super Spacer.
The key difference with Super Spacer, is that instead of being made of metal, it is made of a structural foam called a Thermoset. The thermoset structural foam design of Super Spacer provides a wide array of advantages over traditional metal spacers including thermal performance, sound deadening and long term durability during the hot and cold seasonal temperature cycles.
Mold. A Growing Concern
Mold needs moisture to grow. In order to keep moisture off the glass, your windows need to have the warmest inside surface temperatures possible.
The world's warmest edge occurs with Super Spacer. This superior insulation means improved energy savings and substantially reduced condensation for overall window improvement.
EEE-Z-KLEEN™ Hydrophobic Coating from Vista
EEE-Z-Kleen is an advanced technology that opens a new chapter in maintenance ease and time saving along with glass clarity, visibility and strength. Besides all of this, EEE-Z-Kleen also enhances the appearance and prolongs the life of the insulated glass in your new Vista windows.
Untreated glass, like the kind you get in regular window, is very rough and porous. Contaminates such as oil, hard water deposits, finger prints and even dust will cling to the surface. Water spotting can occur and end up becoming a permanent part of the glass.
Washing your windows using standard household cleaners that are commonly ammonia based can actually accelerate this condition. However, EEE-Z-Kleen glass ends all of these problems.
The EEE-Z-KLEEN process is a chemical treatment that makes the surface of the glass much, much smoother. Not only smoother, but more resilient.
The result is a glass surface guaranteed to stay more hydrophobic for 10 years. During that time...the glass will be much easier to clean. Do you still need to clean your glass? Absolutely. Many window companies have claimed "self-cleaning" glass options available. This is just not true.
Our unique process reduces the probability that dirt and other deposits can stick to your glass, because the microscopic peaks and valleys in the glass surface have been bonded and filled with our proprietary coating.
Additional Product Options from Vista Window Company
Vista windows come with a wide array of individual product options that allow you to completely customize each and every window in your home. Whether it be a specific glass package designed to meet the energy codes in your market, or a decorative option to compliment your style...chances are that Vista can give you exactly what you're looking for.
Foam Enhanced Profiles
The word 'Vinyl' in Vinyl Replacement Windows, refers to the raw material used to construct the frames and sashes of your window. This is opposed to a wood, aluminum or fiberglass frame for example.
Vinyl is short for Polyvinyl Chloride...and is also referred to as 'PVC'. Is this the same PVC or Vinyl that you've heard about in numerous other products? Yes. The KEY difference is how that raw material is blended with other ingredients to give it the properties it needs, for the job at hand. In our case...we've teamed with VEKA, Inc., a company that works specifically to blend vinyl into the right recipe for use in windows across the globe.
The vinyl components that are used to construct frames and sashes are called 'profiles'. This is because if you cut the frame with a saw and turn it on end...you will see a specific design, or 'profile'. This profile differs amongst window companies, and give a vinyl window many of the properties it depends on.
One of those properties is thermal efficiency. Vinyl window frames are designed with multiple chamber in them for both strength and thermal efficiency. You see...a frame is actualyl a better insulator with small pockets of air, than if it were a solid material. Think about the insulation in your home. It isn't a solid block of fiberglass...it is a weave of fiberglass that allows for thousands of air pockets. This comes from the laws of thermal transfer and two physical properties called conduction and convection.
One of the additional options from Vista Window Company gives you the ability to fill certain profile chambers with polystyrene foam...we call this 'Foam Enahanced Profiles'. Only certain chambers are filled to maximize effect, because sometimes...filling a chamber actually hurts the thermal performance.
The net result of filling a chamber with this foam is typically an enhancement along the lines of 0.01 in the overall U Factor of the window. Sometimes that difference can push the window into the next range of energystar or other energy code compliance. This is usually what the option is used for.
