When selecting siding, it's much more than just choosing a color. It's important to be aware of each brand's profile and finish, too. Our profiles range from popular Cove and Clapboard to Vertical Board & Batten — all available in quality finishes, soft-brushed and driftwood.
The first step, though, is picking the right material:
Vinyl siding, the popular choice among today's consumers, requires little maintenance. Just an occasional rinse with the garden hose will remove most airborne dust and dirt.
An ideal material for all climates, Sunview’s aluminum and vinyl siding products are strong, lightweight and malleable for fancier trims and creative designs.
Our steel siding products, similar to a coat of armor, shield homes from nature's most destructive elements like hail and extreme temperatures.
Whatever material you select, you can be assured that it's a superior product — backed by proven warranties.

Glass options in Edmonton
Sunview Windows and Doors proudy presenting unique array of energy efficient glass to accompany our window designs.
Each glass has specific features that cater to different purposes.
See what is best for your project.
Clear Glass
Clear glass units provide optimum noise protection compared to single pane glass. In terms of temperature resistance, it easily allows hot and cold air from both the inside and outside to flow through it smoothly.
Low E-Glass + Argon
Low Emissivity Glass, or Low E-Glass, is a strategic choice for lowering your home energy costs all-year-round. In winter, Low-E Glass reduces heat loss to the cold outdoors by reducing radiant heat transfer and reflecting interior heat back into your room, where it needs to be. It efficiently dispenses the sun’s rays; allowing more of them to enter the home as useable solar energy and providing extra warmth. In summer, the same effect occurs but on the opposite spectrum, helping reduce the flow of hot air into the cooler interior. Low-E Glass also reduces the effects of the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays, which are a leading cause of premature fading and degradation of fabrics and carpeting.
Triple Glass Low E2 + 2Argon
Triple pane glass windows are the most energy efficient models on the market. The extra pane of glass works all-yearlong to keep cold air outside and warm air inside. Special coatings are often applied to the glass to eliminate solar gain and enhance their energy efficiency. The extra pane of glass truly provides a new level of insulation, airflow and energy efficiency. If you want a different type of glass (stained glass, thicker glass, frosted glass, etc...), let us know! All of these glass options are manufactured with “INEX Spacer” insulating glass spacer to provide unparalleled comfort and technical integrity.
INEX Spacer
Making the right choices in energy-saving has never been more important. Global warming is a critical issue that has made energy awareness front page news. In the home or at the office, energy costs can be reduced by 10% to 25% by installing quality Insulating Glass (IG) windows with INEX spacer. With all these difficult decisions to make, choosing the right spacer bar for your IG unit has never been easier. INEX is the highest performing warm edge spacer in the market (better than super spacer). Manufactured with thermoplastic resin, windows with INEX Spacer offer the finest solution in thermal barrier technology on the market.
ENERGY STAR is an international symbol of energy efficiency. It helps you quickly and easily identify the most energy efficient products available to help you save energy, money and protect the environment.
The ENERGY STAR® label for residential windows simplifies your purchasing decisions. You can be confident that ENERGY STAR®-labeled windows, doors and skylights exceed the minimum energy efficiency criteria for the climate region in which you live - sometimes by as much as 40 percent! This means that ENERGY STAR® window products will reduce your home energy costs compared to other products.
Energy efficient windows will also increase comfort, cut down noise levels from outside the home, have less condensation in cold weather than standard products, and allow fewer ultraviolet rays to pass through glazed areas, protecting from sun damage. Last but certainly not least, by reducing your home's energy consumption, ENERGY STAR qualified windows, doors and skylights also reduce greenhouse gas emissions that are contributing to climate change.
How much money can be saved by installing ENERGY STAR qualified fenestration products?
Homeowners who replace all of their old windows and doors with ENERGY STAR Qualified products will typically save about 7 percent on their energy bills. Buyers of new homes with ENERGY STAR qualified fenestration products can save up to 12 percent on their energy bills compared to standard products. The savings tend to be greater on new homes because they are typically larger and have more windows and doors than older homes.
How does a window, door or skylight qualify for ENERGY STAR?
To qualify products must meet strict technical requirements for both thermal and structural performance. Products are qualified based on either their U-value (rate of heat transfer from a warm area to a cold area) or their Energy Rating (a scale that takes into account a products U-value, potential solar gain and air tightness). The colder the climate zone, the more stringent the requirements. Windows, doors and skylights must also have good air tightness to qualify for ENERGY STAR. To ensure the integrity of the ENERGY STAR mark, all product testing is done by accredited laboratories under standardized, quality-controlled conditions.
How will I know if a product is energy star qualified?
Just look for the familiar ENERGY STAR mark on the product or in the manufacturers’ literature. If the map on the ENERGY STAR label indicates that the product is qualified in the Canadian climate zone where you live, you've found a winner.
Are ENERGY STAR products much more expensive?
Not necessarily, and where there is a cost premium, the money you save in energy bills will more than repay the extra cost, often very quickly. Excellent products are available at competitive prices so, whether you're building a new home or replacing existing windows as part of a renovation project, it's a good idea to select the most energy efficient products you can afford. Low priced, poor quality models can end up costing you a lot more money and can also lower the resale value of the home.

Tilt and Turn Windows
Every home and office improves in performance with modern vinyl windows sold by Sunview Windows and Doors. We offer classical design that is typified by slightly rounded edges, therefore this system’s design is timeless and fits perfectly into a wide range of architectural styles - whether modern or traditional, new construction or remodelling, commercial or residential application. Furthermore, the technology built inside the profile is superior. The multi-chambered profiles use the insulating property of dead air-space to satisfy the highest requirements for thermal insulation and energy efficiency. This not only means a comfortable indoor climate regardless of the outside weather, but also helps to noticeably reduce your energy bill.
All about Tilt and Turn Windows
One of today’s greatest home innovations has, in reality, been around for nearly a hundred years. The tilt and turn window system has been in use in Europe since the early 1900s, however, modern materials and manufacturing practices now make this the best window in the world. What makes the tilt and turn design so special? It’s because this ingeniously designed product offers more versatility, security and durability.
Probably the best-known feature of our Tilt-N-Turn window is its dual action. The window tilts in at the top to provide cross-flow ventilation and then, with a simple turn of the handle, opens wide for easy cleaning.

Most people would never realize the clever functionality of this product just by looking at it. That’s because it really doesn’t look that different from any other window. But upon close inspection, you notice that the fit and finish is very nearly perfect. The surface is smooth and flawless. The glass looks thick and strong - because it is. Sunview tilt-n-turn windows and doors also offer another significant advantage over other windows or doors – they will not rust, will not rot and will not shrink or warp fade. They’re great for home or commercial applications. They’re durable and strong -- ideal for use in high-rise condos. That’s because in a high-rise, it takes a lot of time and expense to install windows in the first place. And building owners and condo associations don’t want to be replacing those windows after just 5 or 10 years. They want a product that will last a quarter of a century or more.
Another great advantage of our tilt-n-turn window system is that each enclosure is customized and built to your exact specifications. Our windows and doors are available in a wide variety of colors and textures to match your tastes, including flat profiles.

- Triple Glass is available with LoE, LoE2 + Argon gas.
TILT
Windows and doors can be tilted open at the top, allowing fresh air to enter through either side, or old air to exit though the top. This creates great air exchange and draft free ventilation throughout the room.

TURN
When used in the turn mode, the window opens fully inward (180 degrees). This offers ease of cleaning at any building height. By having the sash open fully, it also meets egress codes in case of fire.

SECURITY
Multipoint, end-retention locks provide the ultimate security. Most tilt-n-turn windows have at least six locking points compared with the one or two in traditional windows. It’s nearly impossible to force entry into this kind of windows without breaking the glass. And because the glass is thick, dual pane, that’s no easy task either. All locking plates, gears and screws are made from the same eco-friendly, anti-corrosion coated hardware and are salt-spray tested for 1000 hours.

INSULATING CHAMBERS
A thermal bridge is created when materials that are poor insulators come in contact, allowing heat to flow through the path. Sunview tilt-n-turn windows and doors have nine insulating chambers which prevent thermal bridging. The outer chambers are routed to continuously ventilate the windows and doors, to maintain higher insulation values. In addition, this helps lower your heating and cooling bills.

STEEL REINFORCED
Every window and door is reinforced with galvanized steel. Because of this the tilt-n-turn windows and doors which are offered by Sunview Windows and Doors are incredibly strong and have a very high structural rating.

MITERD CORNERS
All frames and sashes are mitre-cut and then fusion welded at 468 degrees F. The frames on our windows and doors will never split or gap, as is commonly seen in wooden windows. All corners are also shadow grooved to add an additional finished look to our product.

GLAZING METHOD
Insulated glass units sometimes fail because they sit in water or moisture. This moisture heats up during the day and then cools down at night. This convective motion can break the seal on insulated glass and cause it to fog up inside. You’ll never see that on our tilt-n-turn windows. That’s because Sunview Windows and Doors sells windows that utilize a five-degree interior pitch on their frames and sashes. This keeps water continually draining. All glass units are also raised up from frame so they never have to sit in moisture for any period of time.

INSULATED GLASS UNITS
Sunview Windows and Doors frames are a 70mm deep system that can accommodate Insulated Glass Units (IGUs) up to 1 ¼ “ thick. All IGUs have a minimum of ½” of air space between the inboard and outboard glass panes. Additionally, this glass is coated with Low-E, resulting in an extremely energy efficient window system that qualifies for federal tax credits.

GASKETS AND DRIAINAGE
Sunview tilt-n-turn windows and doors use twin-seal compressing gaskets and overlapping frames and sashes to make this the ultimate watertight system. These windows and doors have one continuous gasket throughout the frame which seals tightly in the corners. All frames, sashes and mullions are routed to provide a reset space for the relief gasket, which is used to create a pressurized rainwater drainage system.
