Welcome to our site
Vinyl-Pro windows are made from an exclusive, 100% lead-free uPVC powder compound. This unique compound gives our windows a better resistance to impact and discoloration. It ensures they will not crack, blister or warp while remaining maintenance-free.

Low E-glass
In winter, Low-E Glass reduces heat loss to the cold outdoors by dramatically reducing radiant heat transfer and reflecting interior heat back into the room. It allows more of the sun’s rays to enter a home as solar energy to be converted into usable heat. In winter, the same effect of keeping interior heat inside, and in summer, it helps to reduce the flow of hot outside air into the cooler interior. Therefore, it helps to lower your energy costs all year long. Low-E Glass also reduces transmission of the sun’s UV rays which is the leading cause of premature fading and degradation of fabrics & carpeting.
Clear glass
Clear Glass unit provides more efficiency in noise protection than single-pane glass. A clear glass unit allows heat and cold air from inside and outside to pass through without resistance.
Triple glass
Triple pane glass windows are the most energy-efficient models in the market, due to the extra pane of glass. Insulating glasses help keep cold and warm air outside, or vice versa. Special coatings are often applied to the glass windows to enhance their energy efficiency by eliminating solar gain.

Cardinal architectural glass
Cardinal Glass Industries is considered one of the world’s leading providers of superior-quality glass products. From the melting of sand to produce clear float glass to the vacuum sputtering of silver to produce low-emissivity coatings, Cardinal manufactures quality components and finished insulating glass products used in top-of-the-line buildings.
Super spacer®
Super spacer is the winning choice for the industry’s most durable insulating glass units
Warm edge technology is more than a low-conductive product that helps make windows more thermally efficient. The warm edge spacer is the seal that keeps the glass package in windows from falling.
Two types of insulating glass systems are on the market today: Single-seal and dual-seal systems. Single seal units are constructed of only one type of sealant, which is called upon to perform double-duty. Not only must the sealant retard the infiltration of moisture vapour, but it must also hold the unit together under a wide variety of both high and low temperatures while withstanding the effects of high humidity and ultraviolet exposure.
A dual-seal unit is constructed using a combination of a sealant that functions mainly as a high-strength adhesive and a second sealant, primarily used as a moisture vapour seal.
Super spacer® is a dual-seal insulating glass system. This NO-Metal, structural foam spacer resists condensation, reduces energy costs, provides long-life durability, and adds comfort and value to your windows.

The all-foam formula of Super spacer® is proven to be less conductive, which can block heat from escaping or entering through the glass edge. It provides optimal thermal performance and is the lowest U Value in the industry.

Magnified mold
Condensation can contribute to mold growth
Super spacer®
Many of today’s energy-efficient windows offer glass packages with «Warm Edge Technology». The problem is that highly conductive metal-based insulating glass spacers are often used in these new windows.
A new window can lose up to 50% of its overall stated R-value with a metal-based spacer at the edge of the glass. R stands for the «resistance» of transferring heat or cold through a solid object. So, a higher R-value means better insulation against heating and cooling loss.
The edge of the insulating glass is the most vulnerable to heating and cooling loss. This usually leads to condensation. It’s a problem that looks unsightly over time, it will stain wood, peel paint and rot frames.
Not only that, but window condensation can contribute to mold growth, a sinister presence hidden from sight deeply inside window and wall openings.
Visible mold can often be found in poorly insulated or installed windows. Mold is being linked to child asthma, plus increases in general respiratory illness, allergies and outbreaks of fungal diseases.

Exterior condensation questions
Condensation often occurs during colder weather when the moist air inside the home comes into contact with cooler surfaces. The moisture in the air can condense to form water droplets or even frost. The risk of condensation increases as the weather gets colder and/or the inside humidity rises. Condensation can form:
- on the glass
- on the frames and sashes
- near the weather seals
- between the glass panes if the seal is broken
Insulating units that use high-performance low-e glass are designed to reduce the heat that flows from inside the building through the glass to the outside during cold weather. Since the insulating unit keeps more heat inside, the outside glass surface stays colder.
Interior condensation questions
Exterior condensation occurs when moist air comes into contact with cool surfaces, such as glass. This type of condensation appears when the dew point in the air is higher than the temperature of the glass. This occurs when a cool night follows a warmer day, typically during spring and fall.
Condensation is a result of temperature differences between the outside and inside. In the summertime, if condensation occurs, it will be on the outermost pane of your window as now your home is likely cooler than the warm air outside. This is also a result of the temperature difference.
Condensation in a home can be stopped by reducing humidity and increasing ventilation. Less humidity in the air means less water vapour to turn into condensation. Increased ventilation provides a way for water in the air to escape.
There are simple steps you can take to avoid or reduce condensation, for example, early morning exterior condensation.
1. Buy high-performance ENERGY STAR® certified windows, doors and skylights. They are more energy efficient and have less condensation compared to ordinary models. They are more energy efficient and have less condensation compared to ordinary models. Features that contribute to better energy efficiency are:
- Triple glazing.
- low-emissivity (low-e) coatings on the glass
- inert gas between the glass panes
- insulated frames, sashes and doors
- greater air tightness
Note: Low-e coatings on high-performance windows make the glass more energy efficient by reducing heat loss. However, if the night has been cool and calm and the air is humid, condensation may form on the outside surface of the glass around sunrise. Also, there is a higher risk of condensation if the low-e coating has been applied to the room-side surface of the glass.
2. Proper air circulation near windows is also necessary to minimize condensation. Airflow across the glass surface helps keep it warmer, which is one reason heat sources such as central heating vents and electric baseboards are located beneath windows in many homes. Deep window sills, closed drapes and blinds, and even nearby furniture can block air movement and allow cool air to pool near a window, leading to condensation on the glass.
3. Make sure your Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) is on if you have one.
