WOODEN WINDOWS

 

Discover our three series of tilt-and-turn wooden windows. A noble and timeless material, wood brings warmth and elegance to your interior. Each window is unique thanks to the natural variations in species, shade and grain. Malleable as can be, it adapts to sleek and contemporary designs as well as more traditional styles.

  • Timeless beauty : Its sleek, glazing-free design, combined with the natural warmth of wood, gives this window a contemporary and elegant aesthetic.
  • High-quality workmanship
    The frames are made of glulam (4 ply), dried and assembled grain against grain for optimal stability. Thanks to a 4-stage water-based factory finish, the profiles are encapsulated and protected by a resistant envelope, allowing good moisture management and elasticity adapted to the variations of the wood.
  • Certification PassivHaus Institute
    The Klimat model is available in two versions:

    • Klimat Cool, certified for cool and temperate climates.
    • Klimat Cold, certified for cold climates.

WINDOWS PASSIVCANADA - COLD CLIMAT

 

PassivCanada – Cold Climate windows are specially designed for projects seeking Passivhaus certification in harsh climates such as Quebec. By optimising the insulating frame and increasing the thickness of the glazing, we achieve outstanding performance. Before us, only 12 companies in the world had managed to obtain this certification.

OPENINGS

FIXED

The sleek frames of our fixed windows maximize the amount of natural light while providing excellent thermal insulation. The quality of our product allows us to produce windows of exceptional dimensions without compromising the performance of your building.

BELLOWS

The bellows window, with a handle at the top of the frame, opens by tilting the upper part of the shutter. This design allows for efficient ventilation while providing increased security against intrusions. In addition, it can remain open during rain, as the water naturally drains to the outside.

Tilt and turn

The tilt-and-turn windows have a multi-point lock, ensuring a superior seal compared to other models on the market. They offer two opening modes: by swinging inwards or by tilting the upper part. The robust hardware of these windows allows for the creation of very large operable windows while ensuring maximum ventilation.

The Essential Advantages of Tilt & Turn Windows

Here are some advantages that make this type of window an exceptional choice for any type of building.

  • Versatility
    Opening Modes: Choose between a partial opening at the top for gentle ventilation or a full opening like a door for easy access.
  • Security
    Multi-Point Lock: Enjoy added security with robust locking mechanisms.
    Safe Ventilation: The oscillator mode allows ventilation without creating a large opening, thus reducing the risk of intrusion.
  • Energy Efficiency
    Thermal Insulation: Reduce your heating and cooling costs by up to 90% with excellent sealing and insulation.
  • Controlled ventilation
    Controlled ventilation: Wick away moisture and odors without creating unpleasant drafts thanks to the oscillator mode opening.
  • Soundproofing
    Noise Reduction: Benefit from better soundproofing, ideal for noisy environments, thanks to an effective seal.
  • Ease of Cleaning
    Simplified Cleaning: Easily access both sides of the glazing for easy cleaning, especially useful for high-story windows.

Imitation Wood: Natural Beauty Without the Maintenance

Discover the perfect illusion with our imitation wood finish at NZP Fenestration.

Our advanced technique captures the warmth and richness of real wood with striking realism — it’s easy to misunderstand.

Enjoy the classic elegance of wood windows, but without the maintenance constraints associated with the natural material.

Enhanced Durability
Our welded uPVC frames offer unmatched strength. Each uPVC and weatherstripping wall merges into a unified structure, eliminating the separation and infiltration hazards often associated with mechanically assembled corners of wood or aluminum windows. This continuity ensures long-term waterproofing and increased durability from the elements.

Aesthetic and Practical
BenefitsWith our wood-effect windows, you not only benefit from an attractive design but also from improved performance. They are weatherproof, do not warp, and do not require repetitive treatments — a huge advantage for any property concerned with aesthetics and ease of maintenance.

 

Choose innovation with the wood effect of NZP Fenestration: the promise of authentic style and lasting peace of mind. Explore the possibilities and let us transform your space with the perfect harmony of design and functionality.

EFFECTIVE RESISTANCE

The Importance of Windows

 

The following demonstration shows the concept of the effective strength of a wall composed of 30% fenestration. The goal is to see the relationship between insulating more of your wall or insulating more windows on total performance.

 

To believe that adding insulation to the walls will be able to compensate for the loss of windows is wrong.
It is theoretically impossible to achieve the same effective strength of scenario 4 with a standard window. Walls would have to have a thermal resistance of R10000 to only reach R15 effective.

It must be admitted that even if the strength of the wall is increased without affecting the thermal bridge, the impact on the effective strength is small. It is therefore always more advantageous to work on the weak elements to obtain a high-performance envelope.

Scenario 7 isn’t legal since we can’t have a wall of R 10.9. Yet, scenario 1 is the most common on the market and both have the same effective R. This leads to questioning…

Realization

THE SUMMIT

The La Cime project is a rental cottage designed to offer a harmonious connection between the interior and exterior thanks to generous windows. As one of the owners pointed out in La Presse :

“Thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows, you feel like you’re suspended in the air.”

This unique design allows you to take full advantage of the surrounding landscape while bathing the space in natural light.

Jean-Philippe Jung

“NZP was the only one to pass the ‘we know how to do this’ mark, had a clear showroom explaining the material they use to install the windows and insulate around the frame, let us tour the shop to see how they work. The staff were friendly, the answers to our questions were prompt and everything was set up as expected. Minor details were sorted out within a few weeks of installation and I didn’t have to chase them to come and finish: they followed along as promised and followed the conversation. The net gain in our house is -3 degrees on the second floor in the summer (south side bedrooms) and a much warmer house in the winter. Much better than expected. I would do business with them again. You can’t go wrong with NZP. Quality has a price, but you will forget about the price, the quality will remain. ”

Pier-Luc C.

“Very satisfied with our passive windows and the after-sales service. We will definitely order our next windows and doors from NZP. ”

Mathieu Boisvert
