We have now found a trucking company that will guarantee us a low altitude route, so that we can offer gas filed units to the Pacific Coast.

And for those in the high country, air filled, warm edge, high solar gain low-e windows are not that much poorer performers than their argon filled cousins.

I took the "opportunity" to try to reconcile Serious Windows' performance data with PHPP requirements.

That link requires authorization to view, is there a public version available to see what you have done?
