Cascadia Windows & Doors, a manufacturer of high-performance fiberglass window and door solutions and LuxWall, a leader in transparent insulation using vacuum technology, are proud to announce a product partnership. This collaboration will bring to market a groundbreaking ultra-high-performance window system, designed to set new standards in energy efficiency and sustainability.
By integrating LuxWall’s Enthermal Plus™ transparent insulation into Cascadia’s commercial-grade Universal Series™ fiberglass window frame, the companies are delivering a revolutionary window product achieving an impressive R-11+ total window insulating value. This represents a substantial improvement over traditional vinyl, wood, wood clad, and aluminum windows, which typically range from R-2 to R-4 total window insulating value. The result is a window solution that significantly enhances thermal performance, reducing energy consumption and operational costs for buildings across North America.
“As energy codes become increasingly demanding and the need for ultra-efficient buildings grows, we are committed to offering the best-performing window solutions possible,” said Mike Battistel, President at Cascadia Windows & Doors. “The combination of LuxWall’s groundbreaking Enthermal™ transparent insulation and our fiberglass frames creates a window with energy performance levels that are truly transformative.”
Cascadia’s Universal Series™ windows are already recognized for their strength, durability, and exceptional thermal efficiency. Now, with the addition of LuxWall’s Enthermal Plus™ technology , these windows will push the limits of performance even further, helping architects, builders, and property owners meet stringent energy codes while reducing carbon footprints.
“Our collaboration with Cascadia Windows & Doors represents a major step forward for energy-efficient building design,” said Scott Thomsen, Co-Founder and CEO of LuxWall. “LuxWall’s Enthermal™ and Enthermal Plus™ transparent insulation is designed to provide superior thermal insulation and sustainability benefits, and when paired with Cascadia’s industry-leading fiberglass frames, we are delivering an unmatched level of performance to the market.”
Glass Replacement for Energy Upgrades
In addition to combining the Universal Series™ with Enthermal Plus™ VIG as a complete window system, Cascadia will also offer glass-only retrofits or secondary window system retrofits, in which LuxWall’s Enthermal™ is installed directly into existing window frames. This retrofit option enables commercial building owners to significantly upgrade their thermal performance without the need for a complete window or envelope rehabilitation.
“Retrofitting existing older windows with high-performance glass can be a cost-effective way to improve energy efficiency and minimize tenant disruption,” said Battistel. “By integrating LuxWall’s Enthermal™ into existing windows, we’re providing a powerful solution to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions for commercial buildings that might otherwise struggle to meet modern efficiency standards, such as Energize Vancouver.”
