The basics of Eze-Breeze 3 Season room windows - vinyl glazing & tracks

We often make the assumption that everyone knows what an Eze-Breeze Sliding Panel window is. But, I thought it might be nice to go through some of the "buzz" words about this window.

Flexible vinyl glazing

First, let's explain vinyl glazing. These windows have no glass. A very thick vinyl is used instead of glass. This vinyl is very flexible and light weight which allows for creation of much larger windows than a regular glass based unit. 

Another benefit of vinyl glazing means there is no glass to break. When creating an enclosure around your hot tub or by the pool, the Eze-Breeze window keeps you safe from slips and falls that could otherwise result in broken glass windows.

Second, the sliding panels travel in a track. Most vertical units (slide up and down) have 4 tracks. This means all four panels slide up and down within their own track. There is an overlap on each track, so if you pull one up or down the rest "latch on" and come follow along. On a 4 track system, you can get a full 75% opening to your screen, if you nest them together.

Side sliding units in closed position

There are side sliding windows available, also. These can get real interesting and do everything from a standard two track window where each side slides and up to 8 tracks with multiple sliding vents, some of which are vinyl and some of them can be screen. This is often called a "wall of windows". They can also be used as sliding doors. Please contact us if you are looking for some sort of side sliding units. We can do configurations up to 20' wide and 8' tall.

That's enough for today. Tomorrow we will talk about outside and inside mount options.
