North Star Windows: Energy-Efficient Windows in Ottawa

Durability
Made of robust vinyl resin, and CSA-A440 certified by the Canadian Standards Association North Star windows are damage resistant and highly durable, making them an excellent choice for those looking for low maintenance products. For added security and durability North Star Windows also offers the option of tempered glass that are four time stronger than conventional glass.
 

Design versatility
North Star windows offer a broad palette of laminated colours designed to be fade-resistant and maintenance-free. Choose from shades like white, sandalwood, ivory, hickory, cocoa, espresso, sable, anthracite grey, midnight black, and more to complement your home’s exterior perfectly. 
 

Thermal efficiency
North Star windows feature many thermal efficiency options:

• Weathertight seals for better thermal efficiency. North Star’s Intercept Warm-Edge Space System also provides better energy efficiency thanks to its heightened heat conductivity around the edges of windowpanes. 

• Especially valuable during Ottawa’s winters, you can choose your North Star Windows filled with argon gas or krypton gas (only for triple glazed windows) which help prevent heat loss.

• North Star Windows can also come in LoE 366 for your areas of direct sunlight, which means they offers high visibility, superior solar heat control, and have a low solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) or in Pilkington Energy Advantage Glass which are ideal in northern climate because of their higher Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) while still preventing heat from entering your home in the summer.
   

UV Protection
North Star carries window systems with multi-layer low-emissivity glass that can effectively block out harmful ultraviolet rays while still allowing visible light to go through. This not only helps you be protected from UV radiation but also allows you to manage temperatures more effectively in your property. 
 

Tints and finishes
To reduce glare and improve privacy without sacrificing on light entering your home, North Star Windows are available in an array or finishes including: a bronze tint, acid etched glass, frosted glass, glue chip glass and rain glass.
 

Nesting Folding Handles
Prioritizing intelligent design and functionality, North Star windows count on nesting folding handles that don’t interfere with blinders. This allows them to close seamlessly without protruding, offering a more convenient experience for you.
 

Practical E-Z Screens
Some windows can be difficult to clean due to screens that are difficult to remove. With North Star windows, E-Z screens can be detached and reattached easily by simply pushing down the bottom edge, which facilitates the cleaning process.
 

Lifetime Limited Warranty
North Star windows come with a lifetime, limited warranty including for the self-locking hardware, in addition to Canadian Comfort’s 10-year labour guarantee, providing you with the peace of mind you need when investing in new windows for your home.
 

Easy Installation and maintenance
Taking practicality into consideration, North Star windows are delivered fully assembled making the installation process simpler and quicker. For the certainty of a job well done and often for insurance purposes we recommend however that you use Canadian Confort windows installation services. To ensure your window maintenance is as easy as it comes you also have the possibility of choosing the Pilkington Activ™ Self-Cleaning Glass treatment for your North Star windows. It helps breaking down organic matter that might accumulate on the outside surface and washes away with the next rain.
