100% non-recycled UPVC frames and sash. Our proprietary UPVC frames have 26 multi-chambers with 70 thousand of an inch thick walls.
The innovativeRoto X-DRIVE corner driver locks the window sash in on the top and the corners for enhanced security and performance. You’ll hear an audible “click” so you know the window is locked.
Our windows use neoprene bulb seals with UV resist stabilizers and extreme low freezing point for exceptionally long lasting elasticity. This maximizes the lifespan of the weatherproof seal.
Our windows come with high-performance sputter-coated metal oxide low-E glass composed of 12 exotic metals to ensure you get the best clarity and performance combined.
Expect high quality design and construction. Our windows feature super strong corners without indented weld points and super clean lines.
ECOSMART windows come with superior foam filled chambers designed for sound reduction and performance improvements.
100% non-recycled UPVC frames and sash. Our proprietary UPVC frames have 26 multi-chambers with 70 thousand of an inch thick walls.
ECOSMART windows come with the Roto X-Drive operator with x10 lock out handles for easy use.
ECOSMART windows are made following the best practices using state-of-the-art machines and technology.
Get True Triple pane. Every ECOSMART window is designed to accommodate optimal glazing solutions.
Get superior sound resistance. We use the low thermal conductivity super spacer® premium plus.
ECOSMART windows meet the stringent NAFS-11 standards by using proprietary steel reinforce mullion system.
EcoSmart Low-E Glass is specifically designed to retain indoor heat and maximize solar heat gain in northern climate zones. With a U-factor of 0.26 in an argon-filled double-glazed unit, EcoSmart Low-E Glass minimizes heat loss through windows and helps maintain warmer room-side glass temperatures. Coupled with a low U-factor, EcoSmart Low-E Glass offers the highest light transmission of any window glass on the market and a solar heat gain coefficient of 0.71. The light and heat combine to brighten and warm a home naturally, resulting in greater comfort and lower energy bills.
The energy efficiency of a glazing composition can be condensed to two key metrics: the SHGC (solar heat gain coefficient) and the U-value. The term “solar energy” refers to the full range of the sun’s electromagnetic energy that reaches the Earth, which is comprised of ultraviolet (UV), visible, and infrared wavelengths. Approximately half of this energy is in the visible range, approximately half in the infrared range, and a small balance in the UV range.
The SHGC is the decimal share of the solar energy that is transmitted through a glazing composition. For instance, if 27% of the incoming solar energy passes through a composition, the SHGC is 0.27.
In most geographic locations, especially those in warm climates, a lower SHGC is desired to block heat and reduce the need for air conditioning. In colder climates, a high SHGC may be desired to take advantage of passive heat gain, lowering building heating costs. This is what EcoSmart Low-E glass achieves with the goal of saving money on your energy bill.
The U-value describes the energy transfer caused by an air temperature difference between the inside and outside of a building. It is expressed as the energy transfer per unit time, per unit surface area of the glazing, and per degree of temperature difference. As an example, a U-value of 0.24 in imperial units indicates that 0.24 British thermal units of energy are transferred per hour, per square foot of glazing area, and per Fahrenheit degree temperature difference between the indoor and outdoor conditions. Because of the heat transfer driven by the buoyancy of warm air, overhead glazing exhibits a lower level of insulating performance (and therefore a higher u-value) than does glazing installed in a vertical wall, with everything else being equal.
As with the SHGC, a lower U-value is typically advantageous in minimizing the energy needed to condition the space within a building. Glass manufacturers and fabricators typically express these metrics in the context of center-of-glass (COG) performance, excluding the variable influences of IGU (insulating glass unit) spacers and framing systems. Energy efficiency codes, on the other hand, typically reference overall assembly (OA) performance, which encompasses perimeter elements such as the metal system, window type, etc. The OA SHGC is typically lower than the COG SHGC due to the effect of the framing system. Conversely, the OA U-value is typically higher than the COG U-value because of heat transfer (thermal conduction) at the edge of the IGU, through the framing system.

One of the key elements that gives the glazing system thermal insulating power is the gap between the glass panes. The ideal gap is 1/2″ which means the glazing system must have an overall thickness of 7/8″ for double glazing and 1 1/4″ or 1-3/8″ for triple glazing. The majority of the systems on the market cannot meet these criteria.
Interior LoE options available with both Energy-gain and Sun-shield packages. Energy-gain and Sun-shield packages to meet customers’ needs; from energy gain to high R-value and UVblocking features. Both packages have multiple combinations of Low-E glasses to achieve different levels of performance.
Argon or Krypton gases are utilized to fill the space between the panes. Both gases conduct up to 50% less heat than air, and when coupled with triple pane construction you get added protection against heat loss, condensation and cold weather. Less heat loss translates directly into more energy cost savings for you.
EcoSmart combines the latest design trends, materials, and innovations to make the most durable & energy efficient windows on the market today.
