Regency® 400 Series
Custom Vinyl Windows
Next Generation Energy Efficiency
The innovative design features and extra-strong 4-1/2″ thick fusion-welded frame with the sash positioned closer to the interior part of the wall for improved thermal protection. against energy loss. Regency 400 Series windows are not available in British Columbia.
Superior Performance Is Inherent In The Design
With meticulous attention to every detail, Regency 400 Series merges timeless beauty with best-in-class technology to achieve superior energy efficiency, enduring style, easy upkeep and excellent value.
Strength and style are equally integrated in our Origin III premium vinyl. Highly durable and virtually maintenance-free, the vinyl composition also is formulated for low thermal conductivity, which makes it ideal for window manufacturing. Featuring a crisp white colour through and through, the vinyl won’t rot, split, corrode or pit like painted wood windows and won’t swell or warp from exposure to moisture. Your windows will keep their beautiful appearance season after season, year after year.
Our IntegraWeld Fusion Welding method produces full-contact welding points for every masterframe and sash corner, resulting in superior strength and a clean, low-spread finished appearance. And, unlike mechanically fastened windows, Regency 400 Series window corners will not work loose or leak air or water.
The extra-strong 4-1/2″ thick (nominal) masterframe on Regency 400 Series windows works double time: it fortifies the structural integrity of the window and accommodates a variety of installation methods and architectural styles. |
Regency 400 Series has the inside track on energy savings! The innovative window construction positions the sash in the insulated part of the wall, closer to the interior, for improved thermal performance.
Our Maxum33 steel sash reinforcement provides extra strength at the sash meeting rails to help prevent flexing during heavy winds – a valuable component especially during harsh Canadian weather. |
Integrating design innovations with everyday practicalities, this multi-point hardware system is precision-engineered for smooth and reliable window operation. The sleek and stylish locks hold up to 400 lbs. per lock point and are resistant to insect and light infiltration, further enhancing the trouble-free functionality of your windows. |
Meeting Design Trends
To meet developing design trends and market demand, Regency 400 now offers black interior painted windows in casement, awning, picture windows and special shapes. |
Prevent Energy Loss with Ultra-Efficient Glass Technology
Windows are roughly 80% glass, so it’s essential to choose a glass system that provides insulation from challenging weather yet allows the warmth and beauty of natural light to shine through.
Regency 400 Series Windows and ENERGY STAR®
ENERGY STAR is the mark of high-efficiency products in Canada, and windows earning this distinction must meet strict technical specifications for energy-efficient performance. As one of the best choices for preventing heat loss, ENERGY STAR-certified Regency windows can help you save money by cutting your annual heating and cooling energy bills.
Regency 400 windows are available with a variety of insulated glass packages to meet the latest ENERGY STAR® performance requirements.*
Insulated Glass Packages
Regency 400 Series Windows feature a wide range of EnergyPlus™ and Solar Shield glass packages that let you customize your windows to meet the specific climate conditions of your home. Double or Triple-glazed glass units with the Super Spacer structural foam spacer provides superior energy efficiency and longevity, while enhancing the indoor comfort and overall value of your home.
To learn more about glass packages and their importance when picking a new window, read our blog Gentek Insulated Glass Packages Explained and 3 Things You Need To Know About Window Glazing.
Introducing our new Quattro Glass Package
Gentek’s newest Dual Glazed system, is designed to meet the new ENERGY STAR performance requirements
- Ultra-efficient glass package can achieve triple-glazed glass performance
- Features two surfaces of Low-E technology; reflects heat back into the home interior and significantly increases ER Value
EnergyPlus™ Glass Packages
- Double-glazed EnergyPlus™ glass units (which are standard on Regency 400 Series Windows) feature one surface of Low-E glass, insulating argon gas and the Super Spacer structural foam spacer for an excellent Energy Rating (ER)
- Meet ENERGY STAR performance requirements for Climate Zones 1 and 2 and a portion of Zone 3 for all Regency windows styles; Regency 400 Series fixed casement and picture windows also meet ENERGY STAR® requirements for Zone 3.
Solar Shield Glass Packages
- Feature increased solar control to help create consistent indoor temperatures in regions with hot summers and cold winters
- Meet ENERGY STAR performance requirements, including Zone 3, for all Regency window styles
- Block up to 50% more unwanted solar energy than standard clear glass and up to 40% more than even dark tinted glass, resulting in lower air-conditioning usage and more comfortable indoor climate
- Achieve centre-of-glass R-values up to 9, depending on the size and model of the window
Super Spacer® Non-Metal Spacer System
Another key component to a window’s energy efficiency is the spacer system. A spacer creates an insulating air space between the panes of glass, which functions as a thermal barrier. Many windows are constructed with a metal spacer between the panes to give the glass unit structural stability. However, the metal edges conduct cold from the outside of your home at a rate up to 120% higher than at the centre of the glass area. This can create condensation problems at the window edge, damaging woodwork and draperies.
Regency 400 Series windows combine a structural foam spacer with a seal of hot melt butyl to create a “warm,” low-conductive edge. When correctly installed, Regency 400 Series windows with the Super Spacer system can reduce condensation, provided that proper air circulation and humidity levels are maintained in the home.† In addition, the Super Spacer design minimizes the subtle movement of glass panes caused by changes in temperature – helping to prevent seal failure and reducing the stress on the glass.
The Super Spacer non-metal spacer provides the highest resistance to conduction and eliminates metal-to-glass contact and conduction. |
See the full Regency 400 Series product brochure to learn more about how the Super Spacer system, compares to other spacer systems.
Check the NFRC Label
To compare the energy-saving performance of one window to the next, take a look at the NFRC label. The National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) is a non-profit industry organization that is committed to providing accurate, fair and reliable testing data to help consumers, architects and builders compare the energy performance of window and door products. The lower the U-factor (also known as U-value), the less energy you’ll need to heat your home. The lower the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC), the more you’ll conserve on air-conditioning. |
