A family-owned company in Medford, Wisconsin, Weather Shield Windows and Doors employs 1,900 individuals and offers an extensive line of windows and doors. To increase the weather resistance and improve energy efficiency in its products, Weather Shield Windows and Doors utilizes an innovative TriCore™ Frame Technology.
Because a home loses much of its heat through windows and doors, inefficient fittings can be costly. According to research conducted by the Department of Energy, heat gain and loss from windows account for 25 to 30 percent of the heating and cooling energy use in a home. The TriCore™ Frame Technology aims to improve efficiency through the use of a fusion-welded subframe that allows several materials to work together in a single window frame. The system creates a thermal barrier that fully prevents the transfer of heat and cold from outside to inside the home.
By using moisture-resistant materials along with thick subframe components, the TriCore Frame Technology reduces weathering, prevents water from entering the home, and improves the general structural performance of the windows.
