Think about what windows endure. They face extreme temperature changes all year and are bombarded with UV rays, barometric pressure changes and nasty winds.

Lower Energy Costs, More Comfort & Value

Luckily, there’s a simple way to give your windows an advantage in reducing energy costs, ensuring durability and adding comfort and value to your home. It’s foam—specifically, a unique formula we call Super Spacer®.

Better Than Metal

Many of today’s efficient windows offer glass packages with “Warm Edge Technology”. The problem is that highly conductive metal-based insulating glass spacers are often used in these new windows.

Completely Unique

Our NO-metal, all-foam formula blocks heat flow, unlike most metal-based spacers on the market today. Windows lose and gain heat by conduction, convection, radiation and air leakage. Conduction is the movement of heat through a solid material. Touch a hot skillet, and you feel heat conducted from the stove through the pan. Heat flows through a window much the same way.

Cut Down on Noise

While windows sealed with Super Spacer protect you from the foul weather beating on your house, there’s something else they keep outside—noise. Whether it’s cars whizzing by, restless next-door neighbors, or power tools blasting on a Saturday morning, we can help keep your home quiet. Compared to conventional metal spacers, Super Spacer closed-cell polymer foam transmits very little sound—another reason you’ll be happy with your choice.

Metal Cannot Compare

Metal can’t bounce back the way Super Spacer can. Thanks to our Thermoset Spacer (TSS)® technology, the spacer will expand and contract, but will always return to its original shape. Rigid metal and plastic spacers cannot compensate for the natural expansion and contraction that occurs daily in insulating glass. Without all-foam Super Spacer, windows can develop stress cracks that can eventually lead to seal failure. Super Spacer’s 100% memory formula withstands a wide range of temperatures, and is even designed to provide outstanding UV resistance.

Built Strong to Last Long

If only the strong survive, then LbL windows will outlast all the rest. All Super Spacer products meet the challenge of the P-1 chamber, the test many engineers consider the world’s toughest. One week spent in a P-1 chamber is equivalent to one year in the field. And since Super Spacer survives 100 weeks, you can be very confident that your windows will last a lifetime.
