Ply Gem Windows: A Quick Peek

Ply Gem® believes that no two people view the world the same way, and we couldn’t agree more. After all, everyone has their own unique tastes and practical requirements.

Whether you’re looking for new or replacement windows in Portland, Oregon, Ply Gem has the right window that fits your home. Here are some of their benefits and features:

Glass Packages

Ply Gem offers three tiers of glass packages with several individual levels of protection:

  1. Low-E Glass. Ply Gem’s standard line window glass. All Low-E glass installations have dual- or triple-pane glass that provides adequate insulation for your home. This means heat is kept outside during hot days and inside during cold days.
  2. HP Glass. This dual-pane product line features added insulation with the addition of Argon gas between panes. Argon is a safe, odorless, colorless gas that is heavier than air. It further reduces thermal transfer between the glass panes, providing superior insulation.
  3. HP Max Glass. Add another layer of glass and Argon to the HP Glass package and you get the HP Max Glass package. Featuring a triple-pane construction, it provides the best insulation any glass manufacturer can provide.

All of Ply Gem’s glass packages are installed with energy efficiency features and upgrades like the Warm Edge and Warm Edge spacer technology that further minimizes thermal transfer between panes. All glass packages block harmful UV rays (HP Max can block up to 99%) and protect carpets, artwork, books, and furniture from fading. A sound reduction coating upgrade is also available, helping reduce outside vibrations, making them ideal windows in Portland, Oregon.
