Earlier this year at the International Builders' Show, Marvin Windows and Doors introduced the operable Ultimate Double Hung Magnum window that measures a whopping 10 feet high by 5 feet wide. "The introduction is exciting because it's the first wood window to offer incredibly large sizes that perform to commercial standards"said Thomas Goetz, Marvin product planner. More

Indeed, aluminum cladding has been embraced by builders and consumers for its reliable performance and low-maintenance characteristics. "It's crisp, stable, and it doesn't expand and contract like other materials", says Engerman. Unfortunately, it is also a good conductor of heat and cold. To compensate, manufacturers are engineering their newest models with the highest-performing glazings, such as argon-filled low-E2, and other insulating materials. Consequently, products such as Caradco's Tradition Plus and Pella's ProLine double-hung aluminum-clad wood windows meet or exceed the DOE's tough Energy Star requirements. More
