These Organizations Set the Standards. We Meet or
Exceed Them.
All
products are designed to meet or exceed the
performance requirements of the following
organizations.
National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC)
We manufacture all windows using NFRC
methods to evaluate energy performance. This
means that you can rely on the information
published on the window panel to
accurately represent the performance levels
of each of our products. It's the best way
to make informed choices about which
products meet your energy needs.
In
order to meet the NFRC guidelines, products are
tested under predetermined criteria for:
>
U-factor
>
Solar heat gain
>
Visible transmittance
>
Air
leakage
American Architectural Manufacturers
Association (AAMA)
Our products meet or exceed strict air,
water and structural performance standards
as established by American Architectural
Manufacturers Association.
Tests include:
>
Resistance to air infiltration
>
Water leakage
>
Forced entry
>
Wind load pressure
>
Heat resistance (in excess of 300 degrees)
>
Weatherability (performance in various climates)
The AAMA certifies that our products have been
tested and are manufactured and tested to their
stringent performance evaluation procedures. Our
products are enrolled in and certified under the AAMA Gold
Label Certification Program.
ENERGY STAR
You can be certain that your Networx purchase
represents the finest in energy efficiency,
because all our windows can earn the
ENERGY STAR for meeting the strict
guidelines set by the EPA and the US
Department of Energy.
