Reliability and supreme quality

There are two major principles of activity, defining the guidelines and the philosophy of WR VINYL:
Reliability and supreme quality.

A series of innovations has resulted in more energy gain and loss control in the window assembly or glass itself.

Some technological innovations appearing in our products are outlined here:

Glazing unit structure:
Additional layers of glass or suspended plastic film improve thermal resistance and reduce heat loss attributed to convection between window layers. Additional layers provide more surfaces for low-E or solar control coatings.
Low-emittance coatings:
Low-E coatings are highly transparent and virtually invisible but have a high rate of reflectance (low emittance) with long-wavelength infrared radiation.

This reduces long-wavelength heat transfer between glazing layers by a factor of 5 to 10, which reduces total heat transfer between the layers. Low-E coatings may be applied directly to glass surfaces or to plastic film, which is then suspended in the air cavity between the interior and exterior glazing layers.
Low-conductance gas fills:
When a low-E coating is used, heat transfer across a gap is dominated by conduction and natural convection.

While air is a relatively good insulator, other gases (such as argon, krypton, and carbon dioxide) have lower thermal conductivities. Using one of these nontoxic gases in an insulating glass unit can reduce heat transfer between glazing layers.
Solar control glazings and coatings:
To reduce cooling loads, specify new types of tinted glass and new coatings that reduce the effect of the sun’s heat without sacrificing views.

Spectrally selective glazings and coatings absorb and reflect the infrared portion of sunlight while transmitting visible daylight, thus reducing solar heat gain coefficients and resultant cooling loads.

Solar control coatings can also have low-emittance characteristics.
Warm edge spacers:
Heat transfer through metal spacers used to separate glazing layers can increase heat loss and cause condensation to form at the edge of the window. “Warm edge” spacers use new materials and better design to reduce this effect.
Thermally improved sash and frame: Traditional sash and frame designs contribute to heat loss and can represent a large fraction of the total loss when high-performance glass is used. New materials and improved designs can reduce this loss.
Improved weatherstripping:
Weatherstripping today is made of more durable materials that will provide improved reduction in air leakage over a longer time period than did materials in the past.
