New line combines century-old aesthetics with modern engineering efficiency.
Red Bluff, CA – (January 21, 2020) – The Westchester Double Hung Window by Sierra Pacific Windows has taken the high-end window market by storm with structural and thermal performance ratings that are rarely found in double hung windows. The new line also features the narrowest check-rail sightline for high end windows, along with historically accurate sash proportions.
“This is an unprecedented marriage of form and function, which is creating some very high demand among builders and designers,” said Vice President of Business Development Bob Taylor. “There’s never been a product like the Westchester that so beautifully brings together century-old charm and style with today’s unrivaled technology.”
With a performance rating of PG50 on most standard sizes, the Westchester window offers structural and thermal performance ratings that are almost unheard of in the double hung window market. The line has 0.28 U-value with dual insulated Lo-E 366 and argon, and a triple insulated glass U-value of 0.17.
