Nostalgia Meets Smart Engineering in Westchester Double Hung Window by Sierra Pacific Windows
New line achieves the high-end window market’s narrowest check rail sightline, historically accurate sash proportions.
Red Bluff, CA (February 19, 2019) – Turn of the century styling meets state of the art engineering in the new Westchester Double Hung Window, introduced by Sierra Pacific Windows
at the 2019 International Builders’ Show.
The new line is designed to achieve the narrowest check rail sightline in the high-end window market, along with historically accurate sash properties.
“The design aesthetics of the Westchester recalls the charm and style of windows handcrafted more than a century ago,” said Vice President of Business Development
Bob Taylor. “Combining that with Sierra Pacific’s smart engineering—and multiple patent-pending innovations — we’ve created a beautiful window with structural
and thermal performance ratings rarely found in the Double Hung market.”
The window offers structural and thermal performance ratings, including:

- Triple insulated glass U-value of 0.17
