Windows made in house for the Arizona heat: what Energy Shield builds, and what we resell
Energy Shield builds its own vinyl windows, vinyl sliding glass doors, and thermally broken aluminum multi-slide doors in house, made specifically for the Arizona heat. Our showroom is at 1205 N Eliseo Felix Jr Way Ste B103 in Avondale. We also install hinged doors, security doors, and aluminum windows made by other manufacturers. This page says which is which.

Our vinyl windows and sliding glass doors come with Cardinal low-E glass, LoE³-340+ (with an LoE-i89 inner pane) or LoE³-366, and argon gas (included), and we use double-strength 3 mm glass in standard-size windows. Cardinal rates the LoE³-340+ glass alone (center-of-glass, dual pane with an LoE-i89 inner pane and argon) at an SHGC of 0.17, a U-factor of 0.20, 38% visible light, and 2% UV; for sound, the glass is rated STC 31 / OITC 26 (3 mm glass, about 1/2-inch air space). Both series, ES3000 and ES7000, carry the same NFRC-certified whole-window ratings. The NFRC-certified whole-window SHGC, U-factor, and visible light of each product are on our solar heat gain page and in our performance ratings dataset.

Why building our own in house matters in the Arizona heat
We engineer our windows and doors for the Arizona climate, with the design emphasis on heat reflection, dust control, and noise reduction. The company that builds the unit also installs it and carries the lifetime warranty on both the product and the installation.
Many, many installers in this area hire subcontractors. Our own crews install what we build, on every job.
See how we build them on our factory tour page, or visit the showroom at the Avondale address above. Call (623) 231-2451.
