High Efficiency Storm Window Systems
Phoenix Window Technologies introduces "traditional style" storm window systems that block summer heat, retain winter warmth, eliminate harmful ultraviolet rays, maximize natural daylight, allow ventilation, and are superior to anything else available for historic wood windows!

Our storm window systems are achieving +3.50, +4.50 and +5.0 whole window R-values, far better than traditional storm windows, as well as most wood replacement windows. By comparison, a vintage single pane wood window with a traditional wood storm has only a +1.75 whole window R-value.

 

Energy Comparison

Like typical wood storm windows and screens, our storm window systems are traditional in appearance and mount in the standar 1 - 1/16" to 1 - 1/8" exterior shelf around the primary window.

In addition, industry-leading insulated glass units and strategically placed weather-stripping are used for optimum efficiency.

Our "operating" storm/screen systems include screen mesh for ventilation and an all-wood sliding or removable strom panel for insulation. The sliding system is not visible.

Traditional style hardware is used to complete the installation.

Traditional Wood Storm Windows
Phoenix Window Restoration builds custom traditional wood storm windows to match your historic windows. Storm windows can be added to either the interior or exterior of your window frame. There are many advantages to adding storm windows to your historic wood windows.

  • Storm windows allow you to maintain the historical character of your building by preserving your old wood windows.
  • Storm windows provide insulation by creating a thermal gap with your current window. The addition of a storm window will make your historic windows energy efficient without replacement.
  • Storm windows will reduce noise from outside entering your building, creating a more quiet environment.
  • Storm windows will protect your current windows from the elements and deterioration.
  • Storm windows will keep air and dust out of your building from gaps around your current windows.
  • Storm windows are an inexpensive alternative to window replacement.

Uni-Frame Storm/Screen Combination
Our uni-frame storm/screen combination allows you the convenience of installing one frame that holds both the storm and screen. The storm or screen are easily inserted and removed from the frame, allowing you the flexibility of a storm window for heat insulation in the winter, and a screen for cooling ventilation in the summer, all from a single frame attached to your window.
