From greater durability to better aesthetics, here are some reasons we’re pleased to offer fiberglass windows from Infinity from Marvin.
Ultrex Fiberglass windows from Infinity are 8x stronger than traditional vinyl windows. They have the tensile strength of steel, even with thinner main frames and sash frames. As a result, you’ll enjoy a larger view from windows that are eight times stronger than vinyl. Infinity windows are made from the strongest window framing material in the window replacement industry.
In addition to their strength, these windows are designed to hold their shape. Unlike vinyl, they expand and contract very little with changes in the temperature. They expand and contract at the same rate as the glass, which means 87% less expansion than vinyl. In fact, most vinyl windows can change shape in temperatures as low as 100-120° and can deform permanently at 140°. Infinity from Marvin fiberglass windows will not distort in temperatures up to 350°. This also means the seals stay strong, and the windows do not lose their shape or energy efficiency over time.
When comparing your window options, function and style are major factors to consider. Infinity from Marvin fiberglass windows are designed by the same talented wood engineers behind other Marvin Window and Doors products, so you can count on them to look beautiful.
The patented, bonded acrylic finish will stay bright and vibrant for many years, and it is three times as thick as painted finishes. This finish is 5x more UV resistant than vinyl and will resist fading and chalking, even in dark colors.
They also have traditional lines and shapes, so you can enjoy the look of wood without sacrificing efficiency. You’ll have no unsightly tilt latch mechanisms or fuzzy weather stripping common with vinyl windows. Vinyl also tends to show welded corners giving an incomplete or messy look. With Ultrex mitered corners you get a much more seamless appearance.
On the interior, you even have the option for the brand’s signature Everwood product, which gives it a beautiful wood look without the maintenance of real wood. This Everwood interior can also be stained like a real wood window to match the stains already used in your home.
Also, the added strength and stability that Ultrex Fiberglass provides allows much thinner profiles to maximize visible glass and visible light into the home. For example, look at these two bay windows side by side. Observe the difference in how much more glass is on the Infinity from Marvin unit and how bulky the vinyl unit looks.
Another reason we’re so pleased to offer Infinity from Marvin windows is because of how environmentally friendly they are.
Fiberglass windows have better thermal properties than vinyl, and the limited expansion and contraction mean low air filtration. This feature leads to tighter seals and less overall movement, making the window more air-tight than vinyl.
This product is also sustainable. The fiberglass is made from silica sand, a natural and abundant resource that is safe and readily available. The manufacturing facility is the only fiberglass window facility to fully comply with the 1994 Clean Air Act. You can be confident that by using these windows, you’re doing your part to protect the environment.
Also, most vinyl windows contain VOC’s or (Volatile Organic Compounds) that can cause “off-gassing”, bringing with it a strong odor or chemical smell. Ultrex Fiberglass windows and doors from Infinity from Marvin do not. The difference in the manufacturing process has a far lower impact on the environment as well.
If you’re in the market for replacement windows, we believe you’ll love Infinity from Marvin. With so many benefits over vinyl windows, these are an investment that will pay off through longevity and lower energy bills.
