To ease the homeowners’ choice, we have simplified the designation of our products in order to list them into two distinctive series: IsoDéco and IsoPro.

IsoDéco is our collection that offers the maximum available options and some specific high-end traits. The goal is to come in harmony with the structure of your home and its interior design in the most optimal way.

ENERGY EFFICIENCYVirtually all of our products are Energy Star certified, meaning they are synonymous with energy efficiency. It is therefore a guarantee of measurable savings and a reduction of your ecological footprint.

TOP QUALITY PVC

All of our IsoDéco windows integrate profiles that are extruded from virgin powder, giving the PVC a pure and durable white as well as providing a remarkable glossy finish that is easy to clean.

ISOTHERMIC WARRANTYWhen opting for our products, you enjoy the peace of mind that is provided by a solid warranty, in some cases reaching 20 years, such as with PVC extrusions and sealed glazing.

Architectural windowsThere are no limits to the architect’s imagination. Thus, in a number of new constructions or renovation projects, we must foresee the production of windows with unusual shapes and dimensions.

Here are a few examples of the shapes often requested.

Interior and exterior mouldings

All of our products are designed to match or surpass the new NAFS-11 Canadian standard, which addresses minimal requirements for resistance to air, water and wind pressure. This standard may vary in function of your house’s geographical position and features. You can count on one of our representatives to describe the standard relevant to your situation and thus, recommend the right product.

Mouldings are important not only for the final result, but to ensure that the window frame will integrate perfectly with the structure of your house.

Our retailers are well qualified to advise you on the right choice of moulding.

Presented results are for informative use only. Official results for all Isothermic products can be found on the Energy Star Website.

1 These results are for a triple glazing with 2 Low-E coatings.

PerformanceChoice of glazingThe principle behind energy-efficient glass is quite simple and effective: a fine low emissivity coating (Low-E) is added to the glazing, which contributes to keeping warmth inside the house during cold weather and to block the sunrays when it is hot.

For all regions of Quebec, the choice of energy- efficient glass is profitable. Choosing triple glass is the optimal decision.
