Why Choose Zenith?

Long-Lasting  Durability

Long-Lasting  Durability

  • Long-strand pultruded fiberglass makes Zenith stronger than aluminum pound for pound and more durable than wood and vinyl. In the latest Inline Fiberglass lifecycle assessment of windows for the North American residential market, they found that fiberglass windows have 38% longer useful life expectancy than vinyl.
  • Fiberglass withstands extreme temperatures and high wind loads without maintenance worries. Fiberglass frames expand and contract very little in heat or cold—800% less than vinyl. They expand at a similar rate as glass, keeping a tight seal over years of temperature changes. This compatibility prevents air leaks and maintains energy efficiency. 

Superior Water and Air Resistance

Superior Water and Air Resistance

Zenith windows are built to withstand severe weather conditions and hold the AAMA certification for exceptional wind, water, and air resistance. Advanced sealing technology provides protection against water damage and air infiltration (as low as 0.01 CFM per square foot).

North American Styling & Architectural Freedom

North American Styling & Architectural Freedom

  • Superior strength-to-weight ratios make the Zenith series an ideal option for large window openings. Lightweight glazing solutions and low-profile frames enable high glass-to-frame ratios, allowing more natural light.
  • Custom sizes, shapes, hardware options, and colors seamlessly integrate with your design plan.

Enhanced Peace and Quiet

Enhanced Peace and Quiet

Zenith windows provide significant noise reduction with sound attenuation performance up to STC 39, creating a peaceful and ultra-quiet indoor environment.

Healthy and Safe Living Spaces

Healthy and Safe Living Spaces

  • Zenith is the first North American window certified under the Living Building Challenge Declare label "Red List Approved". This means it does not contain harmful chemicals. High-quality, low-VOC paints minimize off-gassing, contributing to superior indoor air quality.
  • Triple gasket seals and insulating properties prevent mold and mildew growth, maintaining a healthy living environment.
  • AAMA certification includes forced-entry resistance testing to help prevent forced entry. Forced entry resistance tests assess windows and doors to see how well they restrain, delay, or frustrate forced entry. 

Future-Proof Your  Home

Future-Proof Your  Home

  • Zenith windows and doors are a long-term investment that adds value to your home. They are made with durable materials and pioneering technologies like Thin Glass and Suspended Films. This ensures they meet future building standards, keeping your home's envelope ahead of the curve.
  • High-performance products like Zenith save you money on energy bills. They also give you flexibility for future home upgrades. An efficient building envelope can help optimize modern HVAC solutions such as electric heat pumps. This can help with long-term energy savings and a smaller carbon footprint.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between Zenith and Tyrol?

Zenith is an energy-efficient fiberglass window with North American outswing functionality, achieving up to R-10 rating. Tyrol uses fiber-reinforced uPVC frames with European inward swing functionality, achieving up to R-11. Zenith focuses on fiberglass durability and environmental benefits, while Tyrol highlights European engineering and aesthetic versatility. Both products are energy star certified.

Are fiberglass windows and doors energy efficient?

Yes,  fiberglass is a highly energy-efficient insulator with low thermal conductivity, helping maintain consistent indoor temperatures. Fiberglass stability prevents air leakage and can accommodate energy-efficient triple or quadruple glazing.

What type of windows will be the most energy efficient?

The most energy-efficient windows use advanced frame materials with high thermal resistance. Then they incorporate multi-pane insulated glass units with gas fills between the panes. Finally, precise construction prevents air leakage through gaps.

How long do fiberglass windows last?

Fiberglass window manufacturers build products to last 50 years or more. Resistant to warping, rotting, and corrosion, fiberglass withstands harsh weather without deterioration. Its strength and stability maintain window integrity over time, ensuring efficiency and functionality for decades. The Zenith Series includes a full lifetime warranty while you own and reside in your home.

Why do fiberglass doors and windows cost more than alternatives?

When considering vinyl vs fiberglass windows, fiberglass has a higher material cost than alternatives. It requires complex manufacturing processes like weaving fibers into resin-impregnated fabrics under controlled conditions. Though costlier upfront, fiberglass offers superior durability, thermal efficiency, and design flexibility.
