Look for the National Fenestration Ratings Council (NFRC) label on the window or patio door. This label shows the U-Value, Solar Heat Gain Coefficient, and Visible Light Transmittance values.
U-Value is a measure of the rate of heat loss through a window or door. The lower the U-Value, the greater a window’s resistance to heat flow. A window with a high R-Value has a greater resistance to heat flow and a higher insulation value. The U-Value or R-Value is the easiest way to determine the energy efficiency of a window or patio door.
A Low E coating can significantly reduce the rate of fading of your furniture and flooring. However, it will not completely prevent it. Please keep in mind that fabrics, wood, paint, etc. fade at varying rates and Low E coating will prolong that process.

You will not have to paint or lubricate vinyl windows or patio doors, since vinyl allows for smooth, maintenance-free operation year-round. Vinyl’s long-lasting aesthetic appeal, excellent energy efficiency, and low maintenance make it a durable and economical choice.
Condensation is a natural occurrence caused by excess humidity or water vapor coming in contact with a cooler surface, turning it into visible droplets of water. OKNA windows and patio doors have built-in features to keep the glass as warm as possible to reduce the possibility of condensation. Controlling the humidity level in your home is the most effective way to avoid condensation. Here are a few tips on how to do just that:
Building codes require minimum opening sizes for certain windows; most commonly in bedrooms and finished basements. Since those sizes vary by state or region, please contact your local building code official for the most current information.
