What is the R-5 Window Program?
Ideal Window is proud to offer our UltraWeld window
which qualifies for the Department of Energy's
Building Technologies Program for Highly Efficient
R5 Windows.


Key Points
1) R-5 Windows are highly insulating windows with a whole window
R-value of around 5 (A U-Factor of 0.22) and are at the top tier of
energy efficient windows for cold and mixed climates available
today.
2) Common Energy Star windows only have an R-value of around 3.3
in the Northern Region. Increasing the R-Value from 3 to 5 reduces
the average heat loss through the windows by about 40% and saves
the consumer money on their energy bills.
3) The principal barrier to widespread market commercialization of
R-5 windows is the cost. The DOE is working with the fenestration
industry and potential buyers to lower costs and make these energy
efficient products more readily available.
4) Currently many states are specifying R-5 rated products for use in
their weatherization programs.
The R5 program is an effort by the U.S. Department of Energy to promote
windows with an overall window R Factor of 5.

Our UltraWeld window series with the R-5 Window Package qualifies for
this exciting new program. In fact, we're one of just 30 companies in the
nation that currently does!

Comfort Ti-AC36 is a soft-coat
LowE product which has

Ti-AC36s slight bluish gray

A beautiful choice for your

LowE (Emissivity) Glass
(e Elements of ) Energy Packa's
Argon Gas, which is about 190%
more dense than air, replaces air
and is sealed between the panes of
glass.
The result is a slower transfer of
temperature through the I.G. unit.

Krypton Gas is most effective in
narrow air spaces, such as the gaps
found in a piece of triple glazed
insulated glass. Krypton is two to
three times as heavy as Argon,
further slowing the heat transfer or
conduction between the inside and
outside and vice-versa.


Argon & Krypton Gases
1. Reduced Heat Loss
! Intercept spacers are remarkably energy efficient, they keep the edge
of the windows glass warmer, therefore reducing the overall U-
Factor as well as helping to eliminate interior condensation
problems.
! Ultra Stainless Spacers are as efficient as most foam non-metallic
spacers.
2. Improved Aesthetics
! Intercept spacer is machine formed, folded and installed straight,
providing a spacer which stays hidden behind the sash profile over
long distances and in the corners.
! All Intercept spacer systems provide a precisely calculated punch
plot for grids to be clipped into. This virtually eliminates crooked
grids due to human error or handling.

3. Improved Gas retention
! Tested less than 1% loss per year.
4. Longer Insulated Glass Life
! Intercept spacers provide outstanding strength and flexibility, while
allowing the I.G. unit to adjust to temperature changes.
! The U-Channel design adjusts to convex or outward bowing which
occurs during the summer months when the airspace is hot and
convex or inward bowing which occurs during the cold winter
months.

(e Elements of ) Energy Packa's
Intercept Spacer
(e Elements of ) Energy Packa's
! Filling the hollow chambers of the
vinyl profiles can increase the
insulating value of the windows
frame and sash members by up to
30%. This translates into a 3-8%
improvement in the windows overall
U-Value.
! This injected foam expands to
thoroughly fill each pocket, enhancing
condensation resistance and improving
frame rigidity.
! We recently replaced some
petroleum content in the foam with
renewable plant material, achieving a
USDA BioPreferred Product
identification/designation for
renewable resource content.*

Foam Filled Frame & Sashes
Roller-Tilt
Constant Force Balance System
The only constant force balance system
where the springs follow the sash. This
patented design allows the sash to move
with considerably less friction and noise.
Rated Class 2

Verified
Components
list!
Homeowner Safe:
In order to disengage the
sash from the frame the
Roller Tilt System must be
racked. This prevents
accidentally tilting the sash
in when cleaning and
disengaging the sash from
the frame.

Stainless Steel Spring
Teflon coated, corrosion-resistant
material minimizes friction and
maximizes smooth,
silent operation.
Mounting Bracket
Painted aluminum bracket holds
spring(s) firmly in place.
Adjustment Screw (optional)
Stainless steel screw adjusts
friction against the jamb to fine tune
operation of the sash.

Encore Fol+ng Handle
Meets or exceeds the maximum
performance requirements that
are sought in todays market of
casement & awning windows.
An additional gasket installed

finish. Plus, it is resistant to a wider range of corrosive materials, including
cleaning materials and environmental pollutants.
This proprietary process has been tested to perform approximately three times
better than common zinc plated finishes.
Phosphate coated, electrostatically painted baked enamel resists chipping and
flaking providing a longer lasting new look appearance.
