Vista Windows

Elite Series Double Hung Windows
The Double Hung window consists of two "sashes", one on top and bottom, that slide up and down as well as tilt in for easy cleaning. The sliding action is made possible by springs (balance system) which support the weight of each sash. The bottom (inside) sash is primarily used for opening the window, although the top (outside) sash can also be slid downward for ventilation.

All Vista Panorama Series Double Hung Windows feature:

  • Fully welded sash & frames
  • White or Tan color options
  • A variety of interior woodgrain options
  • A wide variety of glass options for both aesthetic purposes and varying insulating capabilities
  • Integrated lift rail on both sashes
  • Interlocked meeting rails for a tight seal
  • Both sash lift out of the frame for cleaning purposes (they will only lift out from the inside)
  • CAM style secure sash locks
  • Raised track and center slope design for maximum drainage
  • 1" overall thickness on the Insulated Glass Unit
  • Security vent locks
Elite Series Slider Windows
Sliders have two or three sashes, the end sashes have the ability to slide left and right. In the case of a "2-lite" slider, each sash (or sometimes called a vent), slides freely. With 3-lite sliders, the center is stationary. This window is usually used when width is greater than height.

All Vista Elite Series Slider Windows feature:

  • Fully welded sash & frames
  • 72 Color Combinations Possible - All falling under the PanoRainbow Umbrella
  • A variety of four interior woodgrain options
  • A wide variety of glass options for both aesthetic purposes and varying insulating capabilities

Elite Series Tilt-N-Slide Windows
This unique product combines the features of two windows. On the one hand, the tilt-n-slide will glide back and forth horizontally like the Panorama Slider. On the other hand, the sashes in this window will swing inward, much like a french door.

All Vista Elite Series Tilt-N-Slide Windows feature:

  • Fully welded sash & frames
  • 72 Color Combinations Possible - All falling under the PanoRainbow Umbrella
  • A variety of four interior woodgrain options
  • A wide variety of glass options for both aesthetic purposes and varying insulating capabilities

Casement Windows
These windows "crank out", acting like a door on a hinge. Casements open outward to either the left or the right. These windows can be joined together(mulled), and it is not uncommon to see "double" casements, and "triple" casements.

All Vista Elite Series Casement Windows feature:

  • Fully welded sash & frames
  • 72 Color Combinations Possible - All falling under the PanoRainbow Umbrella
  • A wide variety of glass options for both aesthetic purposes and varying insulating capabilities

Elite Series Panorama Bay & Bow Windows
All of these styles project into the outdoors and create additional space and dimension within your room. Vista handcrafts every dimensional projection window utilizing only the very finest raw materials. The frames of the window and also the head and seat board are constructed using only the most expensive 9 ply, Grade-A, hardwood plywood. The mullion posts between the windows in the unit are not only structural, but they are also totally filled with energy efficient die-cut EPS foam.

Many window companies today do not manufacture their own Dimensional Projection Windows. They sub-contract them out to other companies. Vista believes that when you do this, you are relinquishing control over quality to someone else. Vista handcrafts each and every unit from start to finish, from your exact dimensions using your specific configurations. Vista has total control over quality in-house, ensuring a perfect window for you and your home.

All Vista Elite Series Bay & Bow Windows feature:

  • Fully welded sash & frames
  • 72 Color Combinations Possible - All falling under the PanoRainbow Umbrella
  • A wide variety of glass options for both aesthetic purposes and varying insulating capabilities
  • 1" overall thickness on the Insulated Glass Unit
  • Your choice of Double Hung or Casement flankers
  • 9-Ply hardwood construction with optional insulated seat boards.
Elite Series Panarama Picture Windows and Geometric Shapes
Picture Windows are the perfect style of window to provide you with a Panoramic view of your outside world.

While they do not ventilate, they provide for maximum visible light and can make the room that they brighten seem larger and more open wide.

Picture Windows can be combined with any other window style to create truly unique and sometimes massive combinations.

Vista Picture Window profiles can be made into many dynamic geometric shape windows. Use your imagination and design the window of your dreams. Vista will custom make it for you.

All Vista Picture Windows include:

  • Fully welded sash & frames
  • 72 Color Combinations Possible - All falling under the PanoRainbow Umbrella
  • A variety of four interior woodgrain options
  • A wide variety of glass options for both aesthetic purposes and varying insulating capabilities

What is Low-E Glass?
Low-E glass is normal glass that has a microscopic metallic layer embedded into it, which basically acts as a heat reflector. This layer is invisible to the human eye, and is usually on one of the inside surfaces in a 'double-pane' or 'thermo-pane' unit. Low-E glass helps to insulate your home by keeping your heat in during the winter, and keeping the heat out during the summer. Low-E is the main reason that new windows can help save you money on your energy bills.

Low-E is a term that stands for "Low Emissivity". Low Emissivity says that the substance in question, in this case glass of course, allows only a small portion of energy through. A substance that allows energy from the sun, or heat from your furnace to pass right through, would be said to have a high emissivity. The better that substance insulates from this energy transfer, the lower the emissivity.

The following was taken from the Efficient Windows Collaborative: "Low-emittance (Low-E) coatings are microscopically thin, virtually invisible, metal or metallic oxide layers deposited on a window or skylight glazing surface primarily to reduce the U-factor by suppressing radiative heat flow. The principal mechanism of heat transfer in multilayer glazing is thermal radiation from a warm pane of glass to a cooler pane. Coating a glass surface with a low-emittance material and facing that coating into the gap between the glass layers blocks a significant amount of this radiant heat transfer, thus lowering the total heat flow through the window. Low-E coatings are transparent to visible light. Different types of Low-E coatings have been designed to allow for high solar gain, moderate solar gain, or low solar gain." You can find out more about Low-E glass through our supplier, AFG, or at the Efficient Windows Collaborative.

Low-E glass is commonly combined with inert gas fills that act as an invisible blanket to prevent losing heat through conduction and convection between two pieces of glass. Argon and Krypton are the common gas fills in use. For more information, please contact us.
