Winco Window Company launched the 8325 series, which is a thermally advanced window series. "The new 8325 series is ideal for developers and architects seeking federal and state energy-efficient building tax credits," said Kurtis Suellentrop, vice president of EIT and Winco. "The energy requirements in the Northeast and Upper Midwest are rapidly becoming stricter, and we expect the entire country to follow suit. When developing this product, we added some special features that will make Winco products stand out in the market." Winco All frame members of the window are thermally damaged by two glass-reinforced polyamide pillars stitched together by two aluminum extrusions. The thermal strut involves two separate extrusions and connects them through the use of engineered structural polyamide. The inner and outer aluminum profiles are independently extruded, with a cavity that will eventually accommodate the pillars. Each profile can be independently coated or anodized. Winco offers the 8325 series with two different peripheral frame profiles. The standard 8325 series includes a slanted external glass leg, while the 8325F (flat) includes a more modern flat external glass leg. The window also includes a European-style groove locking system designed to combine operation and locking functions in one. The company said that hardware options can be used to meet specific design requirements. The 8325 series offers a 3 1/4 inch architectural grade window system, which is expected to be up to AW grade AP-AW 120, with a water permeability level of 12 psf, and in some cases even higher. Glass options include double and triple glazing. One-piece shutters are also available options for additional safety and light control. According to the company, hurricane testing of the 8325F system is underway and should be launched in 2021.
