They also resist harsh corrosives, remain stable in extreme temperatures and will expand nearly at the same rate as glass resulting in a window that keeps its seal and doesn\u2019t leak.<\/p>\n<p>The energy efficiency is achieved because Ultrex is 500 times less conductive than aluminum resulting in a home that retains its heat in the winter and stays cooler in the summer. Now add in a LoE coating on the glass with argon or krypton gas in between the dual pane window glass and you have an Energy Star Rated window that will cut heating costs by 34% in a cold climate and reduce cooling costs by 38% in a warmer climate.<\/p>\n<p>With many of our customers asking for low maintenance products on the exterior of their homes the Ultrex window makes even more sense. Because it has a superior and consistent paintable finish which will retain the warranty even when using darker colors this high performance coating will look great and provide the toughness a homeowner wants in a long lasting finish.<a href=\"https:\/\/cobblestone-bldrs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/The-Victor-Summer-Photo-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-slider1 wp-image-2099 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cobblestone-bldrs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/The-Victor-Summer-Photo-1-940x380.jpg\" alt=\"The Victor Summer Photo 1\" width=\"940\" height=\"380\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-slider1 wp-image-2099 lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/cobblestone-bldrs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/The-Victor-Summer-Photo-1-940x380.jpg\" alt=\"The Victor Summer Photo 1\" width=\"940\" height=\"380\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Wood Ultrex pultruded fiberglass windows by Marvin outperform aluminum and vinyl windows in nearly every category and is why we at Cobblestone Builders use them as our window of choice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cobblestone Builders Building Better For You!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When choosing a window for a new home one must consider many things.
