Clad Wood Windows

Clad wood windows are a great choice for many DC Metro area homeowners. They offer low exterior maintenance, come in a variety of color choices, the window interior is paintable/stainable, they offer he look and feel of real wood and come in a variety of hardware choices.

On the other hand, clad wood windows can be quite costly, often lack exterior detail, do take quite a bit of interior maintenance, and the quality can vary from brand to brand.

To find out if clad wood windows are right for your Washington, DC, Virginia or Maryland residential project, stop by any of The Window Man's three Northern Virginia showrooms today.

Air Leakage

Here at The Window Man we pride ourselves on being the Educational Window Company. We start the educational process by talking about the three Window Evils.

1 Air Infiltration 60%
2 Radiant Heat 30%
2 Conduction/Convection 10%

Today we're going to talk about air infiltration, also called or air leakage.

Air leakage is unwanted amounts of outside air entering the house through cracks and small openings. A leaky house allows moisture, dust and allergens into your home, making it unhealthy. As air pressure changes in your home, these same leaks also allow heated or cooled air to escape. These air leaks waste energy dollars! Air infiltration causes cold drafts and temperature differences within a room, which frequently causes the thermostat to be set higher or lower, so that the average temperature is at the desired level. The Window Man takes pride in only selling windows that far exceed industry standards to reduce the air infiltration into your home.

Air leakage may come from gaps and cracks around the windows and doors in your home and can account for 50% of your heating costs. By reducing air infiltration, you can use lower thermostat settings and your comfort level significantly increases.

A good analogy is to think of going outside on a cold, windy day wearing an expensive, good quality winter coat all decked out with thermal fleece and water repellent, but if you don’t zip it up, you get little of the benefits you paid for.

Choose a window that has been tested and AAMA certified for air infiltration. If a manufacturer elects to have its product tested, it cannot have more than 0.3 cfm/ft2 of air leakage per linear foot of crack space.

Vinyl is the most popular material windows are made from, but vinyl moves! Vinyl expands and contracts 10 times more then other window materials and windows are tested at normal room temperatures. Our experience shows that vinyl windows need to be tested at “.10” cfm or less, which is 3 times better than a passing grade so they don’t become drafty in the winter when they shrink.

Optium's SC7650 Series

The Window Man is pleased to carry Optimum's steel vertical sliding windows. Optimum's SC7650 Series carry either an MEA and or Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL) label for fire resistance rating of 45 minutes, in accordance with the standards for Fire Tests of Window Assemblies, ANSI/ UL9 (NFPA 257, ASTM El63).

All principal cold rolled formed members are ASTM A528 Low Carbon Steel. Frame members have a minimum thickness of 20 gauge.

Sliding sash panels have EPDM gaskets throughout the entire perimeter (unless otherwise noted).

All units are reasonably free from scratches and blemishes and have the following:

* Zinc Coating (ASTM A525 Z200) on both surfaces, applied by a continuous hot dipped process (The Sendzimir System), followed by a "skin pass" (smoothing) procedure which eliminates roughness.
* Primer consisting of epoxy-ureic paint, applied at a thickness of 5 microns on both surfaces.>
* Baked polyester powder coating, (baked at 180-200 degrees C for 18-20 minutes) with an average thickness of 80 microns.

Windows are factory glazed with obscure or clear 1/4" wire glass. Lites have a minimum of 24 gauge wire with a maximum mesh size of one square inch as per Underwriters Laboratories requirements. Individual lites of glass shall not exceed a daylite dimension of 895 square inches each. Glass complies with ANSI Z97.l and ASTM C1036.

Frame are formed from 20 gauge steel sections, with corners which are mechanically assembled and reinforced. Sash members are 20 gauge formed sections which are coped and assembled. Corner joints are fully scaled to prevent leakage. Horizontal muntins, when required, consist of two sections of 20 gauge forming an "H" Section. Approved 1/4" wire glass are held in 3/4" uniform edge bite.

Lower sliding panel are furnished with standard pull handles and sweep lock at meeting rail. A fusible link assembly is attached directly to the front balancers and functions as the self-closing mechanism.

The Window Man sets all window frames in a level, plumb and square condition without distortion. Units are promptly anchored, flashed and caulked in accordance with good window installation practice.

For more information on Optium's SC7650 Series, stop by any of The Window Man's three Northern Virginia showrooms.

DeVAC 400 Series: Single Frame Non Thermo-Barrier

We're proud to carry the DeVAC 400 Series at all three The Window Man Northern Virginia locations. The DeVAC 400 are high performance single frame aluminum windows perfect for moderate temperature zones. The 400’s resistance to air and water penetration, as well as its structural characteristics, is similar to the 600 series, making it a popular choice for the temperature weather of Southern US.

You can achieve improved thermal performance by glazing the vertical or horizontal sliding windows with 1/2" sealed insulating glass. Fixed models can accept 1-1/4" insulated glass or panels. The 400 series can be coupled with the interior and exterior trims used in the DeVAC "no tear-out" replacement systems.

Window Failure

What do we mean when we say a window has "failed?" Well, a window failure means there's moisture in between the panes of glass. There are actually two types of window failures: a seal failure, in which moisture (or condensation) leaks into the space between the panes; and 2) a window failure, in which the window is no longer keeping out the elements.

For more information on common window problems and how to prevent them stop by one of The Window Man's three Northern Virginia Window & Door Showrooms today.

Mon-Ray Storm Doors

Mon-Ray Custom Fit Classic Series Storm Doors


Mon-Ray Classic Series storm doors are the result of over forty years of research, design and production. Pound for pound, no other storm door can compare to its overall strength, energy-efficiency and attractive, trim-line appeareance.

The exceptional strong tubular frame and Z-bar are made of tough T6 aluminum. This additional heat tempering gives the aluminum a special retention memory. When twisted it will return to its original, straight-line shape. Because of the superior strenght of T6 tempering, the aluminum extrusions in the Classic door are not as thick and bulky as those in other doors. The result is a more attractive, trim-line appearance with more area for viewing and ventilating.

Each of the corners are neatly joined together with a solid aluminum gusset that is over 1/4" thick. The corner gussets are securely anchored to the frame with four stainless steel screws to prevent twisting and seperating. Sturdy, tubular, aluminum frame section will not easily bend, dent or sag.

Features:

Exceptionally Strong Z-Bar...with durable Fin-Seal weatherstripping around full perimeter provides an energy tight seal.

Strong T6 Tempered Tubular Frame...will not easily bend, sag or swell like inexpensive metal, vinyl or wood doors.

Unique Mon-Ray Self-Storing Window Unit...engineered to be energy efficient, yet easy to operate. Attractive, trim-line design provides for maximum viewing and ventilating.

Spring-Loaded, Stainless Steel Pin-Locks...easy to grip and operate. Ratchet-style jamb liner provides ventilation settings every 2 inches.

Solid, Insulating Masonite Panel...effectively reinforces permanently bonded aluminum kickplate from unsightly dents.

Adhustable Sill Expander...is double weatherstripped to assure snug fit when door is closed.

About Mon-Ray Storm Doors
Mon-Ray backs its Classic Series storm door with a written, non-prorated Ten Year Warranty. While other storm door manufacturers only provide warranty coverage to the original owner, Mon-Ray warranty is fully transferable to whoever owns the residence on which the door was originally installed.

The importance of strength and durability in providing comfort and security, as well as, maintaining the original appearance is found in the Classic Door. If energy-efficiency, low-maintenance and a long-lasting, attractive appearance are important to you, then your search for the right storm door is over.

Watch as the heavy-duty closer gently pulls the Classic Door closed. while the closer works to hinder quick and damaging slamming, the sturdy check chain helps prevent dangerous full-open swinging.

Fire Rated Double and Single Hung Steel Windows

The Window Man is proud to offer Northern Virginia residents and commercial property owners fire rated double and single hung steel doors by Optimum. Stop by one of The Window Man's three showrooms today to preview Optimum's SC7650 and SC7650 series windows and to consult with one of our representatives.

Series SC7650


Optimum's steel double and single hung windows have been proven to withstand temperatures in excess of 1650 degrees (900 degrees C) in laboratory tests. Even after 45 minutes of fire exposure all individual muntins, mullions, jamb members and sash components remained in position. Each window features two fusible link components made of slow melting alloy. When exposed to temperatures of 165 degrees or more, the links melt and automatically seal the window shut, which prevents the spread of smoke and fire to adjacent buildings.


SC7650 Series Specifications

General: Steel vertical sliding window shall be Series SC7650 as manufactured by Optimum Steel Window Corporation. All windows shall carry either an MEA and or Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL) label for fire resistance rating of 45 minutes, in accordance with the standards for Fire Tests of Window Assemblies, ANSI/ UL9 (NFPA 257, ASTM El63). Materials: All principal cold rolled formed members shall be ASTM A528 Low Carbon Steel. Frame members shall have a minimum thickness of 20 gauge.

Weatherstripping: Sliding sash panels shall have EPDM gaskets throughout entire perimeter (unless otherwise noted).

Finish: All units shall be reasonably free from scratches and blemishes and have the following:

  • Zinc Coating (ASTM A525 Z200) on both surfaces, applied by a continuous hot dipped process (The Sendzimir System), followed by a "skin pass" (smoothing) procedure which eliminates roughness.
  • Primer consisting of epoxy-ureic paint, applied at a thickness of 5 microns on both surfaces.>
  • Baked polyester powder coating, (baked at 180-200 degrees C for 18-20 minutes) with an average thickness of 80 microns.

Glazing: Windows shall be factory glazed with obscure or clear 1/4" wire glass. Lites shall have a minimum of 24 gauge wire with a maximum mesh size of one square inch as per Underwriters Laboratories requirements. Individual lites of glass shall not exceed a daylite dimension of 895 square inches each. Glass shall comply with ANSI Z97.l and ASTM C1036.

Construction: Frame to be formed of 20 gauge steel sections, with corners which are mechanically assembled and reinforced. Sash members shall be 20 gauge formed sections which are coped and assembled. Corner joints shall be fully scaled to prevent leakage. Horizontal muntins, when required, shall consist of two sections of 20 gauge forming an "H" Section. Approved 1/4" wire glass to be held in 3/4" uniform edge bite.

Hardware: Lower sliding panel shall be furnished with standard pull handles and sweep lock at meeting rail. A fusible link assembly attached directly to the front balancers, functions as the self-closing mechanism.

Installation: The installer shall set all window frames in a level, plumb and square condition without distortion. Units shall be promptly anchored, flashed and caulked in accordance with good window installation practice.
