Question 1

Are Amar vinyl windows made to custom sizes?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every unit is built to order in 1/8-inch increments, including arches, trapezoids, bay assemblies and stack units. Because we extrude our own vinyl profiles, custom sizing does not require special tooling charges.

Question 2

What makes a fusion-welded vinyl frame better than a mechanically fastened frame?

Accepted Answer

Fusion welding melts the vinyl corners into one continuous piece, so there are no screws, gaskets or joints at the corners to leak air or water. The result is higher structural rigidity, lower air infiltration and no corner separation over decades of thermal cycling.

Question 3

Which glass packages are available?

Accepted Answer

Standard insulated glass is dual-pane with warm-edge spacer and argon fill. Upgrades include LoĒ³-366 triple-silver low-e for maximum solar heat rejection, laminated acoustic glass, tempered safety glass and privacy glass such as obscure, rain and frosted patterns.

Question 4

Do you supply distributors, contractors and export buyers?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We work with dealers, general contractors, multi-family developers, hotel groups and overseas importers. Orders are palletized and crated for container loading, with packing lists, glass certifications and NFRC label data supplied per unit.

Question 5

Are the windows compliant with California Title 24 and ENERGY STAR criteria?

Accepted Answer

Every product we manufacture is built to meet or exceed the State of California's safety, environmental and energy standards. Configurations with LoĒ³-366 glass are specified for Title 24 prescriptive compliance in cooling-dominated climates; we will confirm the U-Factor and SHGC for your exact size and glass build.

Question 6

What does the lifetime warranty cover?

Accepted Answer

Our limited lifetime warranty covers the vinyl frame and sash against defects in material and workmanship, plus insulated glass seal failure, for the original owner. Full terms are published on our Lifetime Warranty page.
