These hand-wrought living surfaces developdistinctive patinas that adopt and define theindividual aesthetic character of the homes towhich they belong.

CYPRIUM COLLECTION

SOLDERED JOINTS

Lead-free soldered

joints add a hand-

forged, authentic

appearance that is

both attractive and

functional. Soldered

joints create a

cohesive, watertight

body for frame and

sash members

resulting in a uniform

reaction to

temperature

fluctuation.

Patinas, the living finishes that cloak copper and bronze, are as unique as their location.

Environmental factors such as humidity and salinity work together with time to coat the surfaces with

a signature patina. Treasured as a mark of lasting value, each patina is distinct and ever-changing.

Patinas typically progress from their natural state, through earthy browns and finally settle into a

distinctive “verdigris” green.

As the patina ages, residue may wash down and be visible on surfaces beneath the cladding. This is

normal and adds to the classic appeal of Cyprium windows and doors.

RECESSED MULLION

Recessed from the

face of the sill and

frame, this classical

mullion detail adds

visual harmony.

Cyprium’s deep sills

are well suited to

masonry wall

construction.

CAPPED SILL END

Hand-fitted sill caps

are soldered in place

for structural

integrity and a

finished appearance.

PICTURE/DIRECTSET PROFILES

Loewen uses only pre-finished extruded aluminum cladding to better protect window and door

exteriors and eliminate the need for painting. Our thick extruded aluminum cladding retains its shape,

resists denting and lasts longer than roll-formed aluminum.

Loewen’s selection of durable paint finishes is available in a total of 36 carefully selected colors.

The broad variation in Loewen sizes, shapes and

designs and the demanding environmental conditions

that our product encounters require an alloy that has

the ability to:

• Withstand serious impact without sustaining damage.

• Allow intricate extrusion detailing.

• Provide the malleability necessary to clad the many

sizes and shapes we offer.

• Deliver the unequaled environmental durability for

which aluminum is known.

• Provide a substrate that enhances colorfast paint

performance.

Left to Right: 3/4" (19 mm) metal SDL bar, frame cladding, sash cladding (Clear Anodized finish), 2" (50 mm) SDL (Linen), 1 1/8" (29 mm) SDL (Cranberry). Rugged .050" (1 mm) extrusions are “about the thickness of a quarter.”

NOT JUST AMPLE CHOICES, THE RIGHT CHOICES.

Our aluminum cladding is available in a wide spectrum of colors. All colors are created from Kynar-based

paint that has been enhanced with ceramic pigmentation — meaning our finishes are better able to

stand up to direct sunlight, extreme temperature variations and acidic pollutants without fading.

R-ValueThis chart measures the resistance of heat transfer through the glass. The higher the number, the better the glazing system insulates. R-Value measured at center of glass.

Solar Heat GainThis chart measures the ratio of solar heat gain through a glazing systemcompared to an unobstructed opening.

UV TransmittanceThis chart measures the percentage of ultraviolet radiated wavelengthsallowed to be transmitted through the glazing system.

Loewen uses thicker glass than most other window manufacturers, making our products more

soundproof and more resistant to impact. Plus our thicker glass is considerably more resistant to the

stresses caused by fluctuations in temperature.

Loewen windows and glass inserts for doors are available with numerous glazing options: Heat-

Smart® Plus Window Systems 1, 2 and 3, Tranquility® sound reduction system and the StormForce™

Series. Loewen Heat-Smart® Plus Window Systems use argon gas and Low E2 technology to save

heating and cooling costs. Each of the three Heat-Smart® Plus Window Systems delivers a different

level of thermal performance, allowing you to choose the system that best meets your location

requirements.

Standard Loewen glazing is available in both double and triple configurations and with a variety of

coatings to manage solar heat gain. These result in different visual shading. The photo images shown

below provide an approximation of the appearance of each glazing system.

HEAT-SMART® Plus

Heat-Smart® Plus Window Systems offer three

levels of thermal protection. The charts on

previous page show the comparative performance

of each Loewen Window System.

HEAT-SMART® Plus 1

Double glazed, with one lite of Low E2 coating

and one 1/2"(12 mm) air space filled with argon

gas*.

HEAT-SMART® Plus 2

Triple glazed, with one lite of Low E2 coating

and one 1/2" (12 mm) air space filled with

argon gas*.

HEAT-SMART® Plus 3

Triple glazed, with two lites of Low E2 coatings

and two 1/2" (12 mm) air spaces filled with

argon gas*.

Heat-Smart® Plus Window Systems also protect

furnishings by screening out much of the

damaging ultraviolet radiation that cause fading

and related damage.

SUN 240

Sun 240 is a tinted version of Low E2 glass; the appearance and performance are the same regardless

of glass thickness. Sun 240 blocks over 84% of the harmful UV radiation and absorbs 60% of visible

light for glare control, reflects invisible solar heat and, because it is a

low-emittance coating, the glass provides comfort all year round.

DOUBLE SUN 240

Double glazed with one lite of Sun 240 Low E coating and one 1/2" (12 mm) air space filled with

argon gas*.

TRIPLE SUN 240

Triple glazed with one lite of Sun 240 Low E coating and one 1/2" (12 mm) air space filled with

argon gas*.

TRIPLE SUN 240 (dual Low E2 coating)

Triple glazed with one lite of Sun 240 Low E coating, one layer of Low E2, and two 1/2" (12 mm) air

spaces filled with argon gas*.

* Note: Argon gas does not apply to units with capillary tubes installed (high altitude glazing).

HEAT-SMART®

Tranquility®

Sound Transmission Coefficient (STC)

Tranquility® available on product configured for triple pane only.

Sound Transmission Coefficient (STC)The STC rating is a way to measure the performance of a glazing system using a single number that represents the Sound Transmission Loss performance over a range offrequencies. The higher the number, the greater the noise reduction.

All Loewen products available in triple glazed sash may be ordered with Tranquility®, however, onlyCasement has been formally tested for STC.

TRANQUILITY®

Loewen’s heavy frames, thick glass and superior fit and finish result in above-average sound

attenuation. For problem applications, we’ve developed an upgraded glazing system that offers even

better sound transmission performance.

Tranquility® Glazing Systems greatly reduce sound transmission.

• Tranquility® Glazing Systems consist of a 1/4" (6 mm) pane of glass on the exterior, a 13/16"

(21 mm) air or argon filled space, and a 9/32" (7 mm) pane of laminated glass on the interior.

• Tranquility® Glazing is available on all Loewen products that can be made in a triple

glazed configuration.

• Operating casement units test out at STC40 (no storm panel is required to achieve this rating).

• Laminated glass used in the sealed unit provides increased security.

• Tranquility® provides approximately the same thermal performance as Heat-Smart® Plus 1.

• The laminated glass used in Tranquility® helps to filter out damaging ultraviolet rays.
