Installation Support
DIY-friendly: owners and contractors get 1-on-1 factory technical support.
ProSill™ installation for SAINTY sliding windows requires precise rough opening measurements and the use of AAMA-compliant sill flashing. Ensure the sub-sill is level within 1/16th of an inch to prevent drainage issues; shim the jambs at the midpoint and near the multi-point lock strike for structural stability.
If panel wobble occurs during final walkthrough, adjust the top guide rollers to increase tension against the head track. Apply EPDM-compatible sealant at all frame joinery points to maintain the 720 Pa water penetration rating.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I monitor the production progress of my order in real-time?
Once your CAD drawings are approved, you can log into the SAINTY platform to follow our 11-step manufacturing pipeline, view live site photos, and track shipping status — from material preparation and factory production through loading inspection, ocean freight, customs clearance and jobsite delivery.
What does SAINTY's 11-step order tracking process include?
The pipeline covers: CAD drawing approval, material preparation, profile machining, factory production, glazing & hardware installation, quality inspection, protective packing, loading inspection, ocean freight, customs & delivery, and jobsite delivery. Every milestone is documented with photos in the SAINTY app.
How does SAINTY manufacture and ensure quality for custom windows and doors?
Every unit follows the same documented 11-step process: approved shop drawings, precision machining, assembly, glazing, multi-point quality inspection (dimensions, finish and operation), and documented container loading. Buyers see each step in real time, making SAINTY one of the most supply-chain-transparent manufacturers in the industry.
Are these sliding windows rated for high-wind environments in Canadian apartments?
Yes, SAINTY sliding windows are tested to AAMA/WDMA/CSA 101/I.S.2/A440 standards and achieve a design pressure rating up to DP70. This structural performance, combined with a water penetration resistance of 720 Pa (15 psf), ensures the windows remain airtight and watertight even in extreme weather conditions common to high-rise coastal or urban Canadian environments.
What thermal performance levels can be expected for energy code compliance?
SAINTY aluminum sliding windows achieve a U-Factor between 0.20 and 0.32 Btu/h·ft²·°F when rated per NFRC 100-2020. Utilizing a 24mm PA66 GF25 thermal break and argon-filled tempered glazing, these units meet the energy efficiency requirements for California Title 24 Part 6 and comparable Canadian provincial building codes.
What prevents panel wobble or misalignment during operation?
Panel stability is maintained through precision-engineered top guide rollers and adjustable bottom rollers that interface with a reinforced sill track. Both the fixed and sliding panels are calibrated for vertical alignment via these rollers to prevent lateral wobble, ensuring a smooth glide and consistent seal against EPDM gaskets.
Do SAINTY high-performance aluminum sliding windows comply with Canada energy code requirements?
Yes. SAINTY High-Performance Aluminum Sliding Windows units are fully compliant with Canada energy code requirements, achieving a certified U-Factor of 0.28 Btu/h·ft²·°F (NFRC 100) when tested under NFRC 100-2020 and NFRC 200-2020 procedures. Performance is verified on AAMA/WDMA/CSA 101/I.S.2/A440 tested assemblies, and the NFRC label certificate is supplied with every order for permit submission.
How do SAINTY thermal break high-performance aluminum sliding windows compare to standard non-thermal aluminium windows in Canada?
Unlike non-thermal aluminium frames, which typically show U-factors above 0.50 Btu/h·ft²·°F, SAINTY uses a 24mm PA66 GF25 Polyamide thermal break and Low-E insulated glazing to reach a certified U-Factor of 0.28 Btu/h·ft²·°F (NFRC 100). That reduces conductive heat transfer and HVAC loads substantially while meeting NFRC 100-2020 and, where applicable, California Title 24 Part 6 requirements.
