The glass units used in the fixed door leaf and in the fixed and operable windows are LiteZone® L0479 IGUs which are 2.8” thick with 2 suspended films and achieve insulating values of R9.9 (U=0.101) center of glass and R8.4 (U=0.119) for an overall fixed window. The glass unit used in the active door leaf is a LiteZone® L0465 IGU which is 2.2” thick with 2 suspended films and achieves an insulating value of R9.5 (U=0.105) center of glass and R7.9 (U=0.127) for an overall fixed window. LiteZone® glass units are air filled and therefore have no concerns with deteriorating insulating values or with decompression of IGUs due to escaping argon or krypton. LiteZone® has an expected life of more than 60 years making it the most sustainable insulating glass unit available.

Freaky. I've been planning out my major house rebuild seeking high efficiency, lift slide, tilt turn windows and doors for my home in Victoria BC. Then you show Innotech products and I'm like is this is some high end Texas or California company? No turns out it is like 50km from me. Then you show these Fenstur windows and galdarnit I drove by their manufacturing shop earlier today, also near me. Must be my lil manifest destiny. Love this show!
@Chik Weid hey it got 15 likes lol.
#fenstur2
If you like a more modern look check out Glasbox. They are also in BC and make thermally broken aluminum windows and doors.

Smart man
Lets not forget your crew that clearly treat it like art! It looks like every step of the way the details are phenomenal and clearly knocked it out of the park. Those are some beautiful windows too and should i ever get the chance i will for sure be looking into something like that
This is all quite normal in The Netherlands. My 3 year old house has almost the same windows and tripple pain glas with the extra high R value (we use a different name here). Good to see the US adopting these technologies.
Keeping a house warm is easy. Keeping it cool without AC is something else. We use a heat pump with geothermal source to flow “cold” water through our concrete floor slabs in the summer. Very efficient and very comfortable
I think this is like the 10th video I’ve watched of yours. I have determined, definitively, I’m now officially addicted. Thank you for providing all your content, genuinely!
I love the aesthetics of wooden windows and doors.
Matt, if you ever want to know the number of panes, and films suspended in a glazed window, just light a bic lighter,
then count the flames.
The level of technology, quality, and professional craftsmanship in this video is truly amazing!
These mechanisms have been around in Europe for decades, literally. The only difference is the glass itself. Here we use solid glass, rather than suspended films.
I always find glass + burglar proof to be a funny set of marketing specs.🤓😉
A couple bullets and I want to see the glass after that
@@jessewood3999 It would shatter and the bullet would go clean through. However, the glass pieces would stay together and you would still have difficulty getting through the glass. Obviously it’s not bulletproof, but it resists entry for a relatively substantial period of time. Enough to hopefully get somewhere safer, grab a gun, and call for help.
maybe it is like a car windshield that has laminated glass?
I always find it funny that Americans are concerned about other people shooting at them. This is never a concern when you’re not living in a shithole country lol.
@@Ogilla Your statement is backwards, we want to make sure that our bullets will hit the person trying to break in. Ammo prices are getting expensive, so it's important to know if the door / window needs to be opened before popping off rounds.
That in swinging casement window that also tilts is how many windows are in Germany. While I was stationed there in the early 90s I came to love those windows. We could tilt those windows on a nice cool summer evening and have wonderful ventilation, but with great security. I didn't need to worry about my small children on a fourth floor apartment falling out because I left the window open at night. I just love those windows!
i enjoy the old falsetto way of the tagline at the end, personally.
That door glides nice. Nice soft close saves broken hands
Beautiful craftsmanship on the door and windows. It was like you were doing a review in a European country! 🌍🇳🇴
Totally. Beautiful products
Man Matt really saves videos for posting for months. I thought he was already up to drywalling.
This confused me as well!
Hey Matt. Love your content! You are teaching me so many things.
I would love to see more about the overhang above the door it's amazing
Interesting you say that, I feel it’s build too flimsy and don’t like it at all.
It’s an all steel awning my guys built for me onsite. I wanted to protect this door and shade the opening
@@buildshow they did a great job. Love the look with the tongue and groove boards
@@buildshow I understand your reasoning. I just haven’t seen a metal awning yet that I liked. Maybe if you had used 4” pipe…
@@4philipp you must have very deep pockets 18"icf now thus
I was so excited watching this video, I had hoped you'd show the end result. Will have to look for that in your list of other content.
Amazing Window Efficiency! Great Job!
Take it you haven't heard of the Colorado based Alpen windows and their R20 windows.
You had me interested and curious that Matt wouldn't be aware of an R20 window when he's surprised by an R10 window assembly here, and I cannot find any data on their site about R20. Highest rating I see from their premium window line is R11.1. I mean, glass can only insulate so well no matter what you do unless your just adding more panes, and even then the cost becomes astronomical with diminishing performance returns.
They are beautiful (albeit expensive) products. I'm on the island and was chatting with one of their folks at a PH event and he was explaining that they fully finish (paint or lacquer) each piece prior to assembling the frames! Glad to see them getting some airtime.
So cool to see all these new inventions.
Incredible window package
Matt, I love seeing you in there with the guys!
Love the window/door package, but they aren’t worth it if you don’t have something nice to look out at. Can’t wait to see what you do with your landscaping, Matt! Thanks for all the info.
Welcome, better late than never. The Passive House Institute was established in Germany in 1996 and has since then been a driving force in modern architecture and construction in Europe. However, in a cold climate like we have here in Scandinavia there are some drawbacks. Eg. though Norway got a passive house building standard in 2011 (NS3700) there are arguments that it shouldn't be the exclusive standard and instead a low-emission standard is more appropriate because it's more flexible. This argument is based on a Swedish study concluding that passive houses may have a lower energy consumption than traditional houses while the building is in use, but that the calculation will be completely different in a life cycle perspective, where also the initial production and transport, and the added energy needs during a future destruction of the building materials are included.
all stuff to look into when building, nice
7:31 You know it's installed professional if you have 3 or 4 different screw types in the same location
Wow that’s just incredible and it take a lot to impress me…
The locking mechanism for the patio door or windows has been in europe for many years, is not new tech but still very nice. And the glass is kind of like a laminated glass, the R value is fairly high, very very nice 👍🏼
Funnily enough, the company from Canada seems to either have a German name of their own or only publish this window series with the German name "Fenstertür".(=windowdoor)
Amazing performance & beautiful wooden window !The best perfoming window in Japan is U=0.55.Moreover,it is quintuple glass!!However,very exsensive!Comments from japan🇯🇵
Can’t wait to see it! Let’s get going!
“This is a flange-less window, so there’s no flange.”
Ok, did I miss something? What happened to your Jeld-Wen windows? I am guessing u are swapping them out for a passive rating?
This closing/tilting mechanism is in fact in all German/Swiss houses. And the brand name is German and means loosely translated Windoors. 3 panes are the new standard here, but your insulation factor is still next gangster kind of level.
Close/tilt had been the standard in the Netherlands for approx 20 years. Although that insulation level is crazy, my new triple glazed windows are U 0,6 which is R 1,66 and it is a lot colder here than in Texas.
@@piotrpopieluch4799 US has different units for U/R. Conversion factor is 5.678.
Yeah the US tends towards cheap building practices so our high-end stuff tends to be your everyday stuff.
These windows would look good on an ICF home with 18”+ walls.
ICF is the same price as a framed house at the moment for the first time ever. However can’t do quite as custom of a house.
@@jjansen987 I would certainly go ICF now and not do so much custom.
Internorm do some great ones too.
@@jjansen987 the secret is simplicity. Yes f course if you have the budget o build big, do whatever you desire but for most of us budget wanna be diy home builders, simple is the answer.
Are you hiring? I’m a home inspector in Austin and want to build. I’ve been inspecting for about 5 years and still have so much to learn.
Hello Matt. Nice video i watch all of yours videos. This all looks good. I know it isn't big deal for your location..but if it was more to north i would worry about rust on that extra overhang you placed there. In summer that metal will het pretty super hot..so not good at all..but if possible i would change it to stainless steel .
All houses should be built like this
My God Matt, you're spoiling yourself with all these house goodies. You better watch out for tornadoes, they're gonna be trying to lift that house for its resale value ;)
Our almost 40 yr old CA house has windows & sliders from a Canadian co. They weigh a ton. The only weird thing is that whoever did the install put the slide on the outside & the stationary on the inside. So if someone wanted to burgle our house all they'd have to do is remove the slider IF they have the muscles to lift it.
Welcome home from your vacation!!
Thanks! Had an amazing trip.
6:35 are there gaskets on the hinge side that air seal as well? You can see daylight on the left when Matt closes the window.
Actually, “suspended-film glazing” technology has been on the market since 2010 (and the technology itself is from 80s from Visionwall company). But it was way more expensive and had some cons (like wavey look) compare to conventional triple glazing. Now the technology has become just slightly more expensive and can get its place in houses.
As for me, the best use of this technology are skylights or even transparent roofs, as the film can provide extremely high sun protection (SHGS) and Rvalue for less weight compared to triple glazed solutions and there are no special requirements for VLT for such application.
Bomber information and products! 😁. Only thing, glass is not burglar proof, it’s the weakest point on a home unless it’s laminated. I install security window film on glass that actually acts as a lamination holding the glass together in case of a possible break in. The film also requires an attachment system that holds the film to the frame creating difficulties for an intruder to get through. It is only to give you more time to get your pew pew or call po po (Funding provided 🤷🏼♂️).
How do you like your litezone glass so far? I would love to get some for my house but having trouble with who would install.
Very nice product ! Looks 99% like what I was thinking about back in 2010 when I was looking for the best glazing system for a passive + active home. My concept is a tad different as to the materials are used And far, far from any kind of prototype :) Now at least the project is ready and I should be able to build the prototype of the glazing + frame :)
Windows are so important in high performance builds! Fenstur is great- as a customer, I've learnt a lot from them and am thankful they know how to build a quality product !
Did you remove the Jeld-wins?
What about window sills both in and out? In Europe our house had huge sills, trays of geraniums on the sill outside and other pants and flowers on the interior sill.
I've been waiting this for months! Matt, any reason for the mix of these and Jeldwen? Rationale for the location?
Matt usually recommend backer rod for door and window install. Why spray foam in this case?
Edit: disregard, tape for air sealing. Foam for insulation.
Was this filmed before the air tightness tests?
Yeah, while air tightness test he mentioned that the door glass not delivered yet they set a plywood instead
How would you compare these windows/doors with the European package you showed in ruclips.net/video/C2bJ1IWewDc/видео.html ? Clearly you chose this package for a reason. Was it cost? Availability? Performance? Aesthetics? I'm trying to decide on a supplier for the package for my upcoming home build and a comparison would be great.
Howdie. Big fan of your work. Shopping for passive house level windows. Looking at Alpen, Zola, Zeemray and Steel Entry Thermally Broken Steel. Any chance you'd be up for sharing your perspectives on these companies and products?
Do you have information on the awning above the doors and windows?
I can't wait for Tilt and Turns to take over in the US. Seeing double hung windows here after European trips is just sad
I have been seeing Tilt and Turns in all new construction in my city in the east coast, but they lack rolladen like they have in Europe
We're 8 to 12 months out from building our forever home in Carson City central Nevada. I'm not a builder, but we're very interested in a high performance home. Carson City, NV is climate zone 5. How thick do the walls have to be for Fenstur windows? Love your videos!
How does it seal at the top if the door drops down onto seals?
Curious as to why you have cripple studs at the ends of the rough window sills and why you don't beef up the rim joist to be the window headers. It looks like you are using a double 2X for a window sill. This is typical construction in NE and I never understood why it is done.
I feel Like the fiber glass Could very well Crack, and if you put it in an area that you wont think to Inspect Often to Repair as Needed it could Cause Serious Issues...I wouldnt wanna risk something so Big, Heavy and Expensive to Install only to Have to it Crap out and Need Complete Overhaul of such a Large Project...
Then the Casters...as heavy as it is how Easy would it be to Clean/Repair/Replace Casters when they Get Crustified?
I do Highly Appreciate Your Show, I have been Impressed with and Have Personally Implemented much of the Resourceful Info, Clever Ideas, and Products in the homes I remodel that You have Shared on this Show.
I just thought these Potential Problems May Be something worth Keeping an Eye out For..
Quite Grateful You Exist!
Where did you get those awnings over doors?
They also make the house a lot quieter
I have similar Tilt & Turn European windows on my netzero house that was built in 2018, but the windows are PVC/Plastic frames, not wood. I have 2 Lift sliders that work the same way as yours, but mine are more reasonable in size at 8' high X 8' wide (door is 4' opening to allow handicapped access to the deck), windows ran about $700 each, the lift & slide doors were killer though at $5,000 each (have 2)
That's actually a much more affordable price than I expected. A lot of high quality sliding doors run at a price of $1,200+ per linear foot. Am I missing something?
blower door score?
whats the purose of the black exterior window membrane? if it's not stickied onto the window frame as well
Also, you using closed cell flexible PU foam? or just normal?
recomandation to use the above rather than the simple pu cheap onel, for future flexibility and better R value from the closed cell structure
Video is pretty helpful. On personal note, I like Dako company.
Love me some passiv Haus , but just wondering what alternative there are for the wood, Australian and the west coast have experienced some crazy wildfires recently and I’m sure building codes will be beefed up to stop using combustible materials on exteriors in these zones.
You can still frame a house out of 4x2 in a FZ in Oz
Wood when properly thick does not easily burn through as the carpon build up from the fire protects the interior, the fire spreads inwards only as the outer layer starts cracking exposing "fresh" insides to fire. Concrete however just loses it's structural integrity in heat and crumples. Often the fire climbs over, licking the outer walls, gets under the roof and spreads from there to rest of the house, rarely straight through the wall unless a window or door window shatters or there is a vent to outside.
It' why I like the ubiquity of Hardie plank fibre cement siding and the growing popularity of metal roofs, esp here in the PNW. And to think my previous house had a neighbourhood covenant requiring cedar roofing - which everyone rightly ignored.
Would love for you to do a updated youtube video on LiteZone where multiple layers of film can be added to 2 IG units to make incredibly insulated windows, in the 15-20 R range.
Good idea. I’ll add this to my list
Thanks. I'm in Maryland and planning a high performance build in the next year or two and was excited to find out a window company based in Pennsylvania called Vetrina uses LiteZone with IGUs which are R10+@@buildshow
Can this be spec'd by the customer from LiteZone? Or is this some mod you're suggesting?
I just keep hearing ka$ching, ka$ching!
Cost exceed return?
On a serious note- the casement windows are wide. Is there a way for in the future to adjust the window incase of sagging? Thanks
a house when properly built does not sag unless it's a timber framing where you take that in to account and space accordingly.
In USA you use R as thermal resistance , we use U as thermal dispersion... damn 😂
What straps are you using to hold the windows in?
screwing in the windows from inside the stud seems like it could cause problems down the line when replacing the window, the from the frame out with plug covers seems like the way to go.
Wait, expandable foam around the doors/windows?!? What happened to the backer-rod method and the air sealing from the inside so it can dry to the outside? Is this due to the tape you are using on the outside now?
How many times did you walk into that door?
Matt is anyone building high performance windows with ALON glass?
looks awesome but when you find out the price tag, it's insanely expensive. might want to mention how much more expensive these windows and doors are. I needed to replace my 12 leaking wooden windows in South carolina house. The lite zone quote with shippping was I think over $13,000!!!!!! and that was for the glass ONLY, no window frames. Now these are big 3x6' windows, but still super expensive. Wound up getting some triple pane windows used for about $100 each, or 1/10th the cost.
Did you get it ?
😂
I know this is old, but everyone should check out VIG (vacuum insulated glass) windows. Barely over two panes thick starting at R-10
Does anyone make Passive House tilt and turn windows that meet the Florida impact window requirements?
Can you talk about how to keep termites from tunneling through a ICF homes?
Just put fire to the house. Problem solved 😁
There are a couple things you can do. Steelstuds/pressure treated lumber in combination with a sand barrier, membranes, termite shield (for detection), and treated foam (insecticide). A combination of these will make it hard for termites to thrive, remove their source of food, and decrease their ability to tunnel through.
For all that is holy, make sure no rocks ever end up in your back yard. It would suck to have a rock break even one of the sliding glass doors.
Personally I've known too many badly maintained sliding glass doors that I don't trust them. But they look great and sound amazing.
@Matt Risinger I hope you don't plan on installing a composite deck outside of that door. Check the specs on your decking material the reflected heat of the high efficiency glass can ruin your deck.
So you going to take all your screens out and pull the fiberglass. And replace with copper/ brass????
Genuine question from a Non-American: I have seen so much flimsy/paper-ish front and back doors (and windows) at homes in the U.S. Norteast where the winters do get cold. How is this possible? Here in the UK the energy bill would be through the roof.
Quick question: so if the weight of the door "falls down" onto the track, sealing out the heat and cold below, what is sealing out the heat and cold on top to make it fully passive?
There are gaskets on the top that also seal when it lowers, it's a really cool system to see it in person !
Love it! But, I'm struggling.... Question:
Should I (1) get more land and grow food so when the Great Reset food shortage comes, my family is still fed well, or (2) say to heck with prep and invest in passive house comfort and sustainability that Claus Schwab could get behind?
@@agodelianshock9422 yes, shouldn't be a problem.
@@blaydCA sounds sinful
So are these double-paned?
So when they cut out the drywall around the windows and doors, how does that Siga tape not get cut up when they roto-zip around the windows to cut the opening so the drywall fits???
Probably measure /template and cut it elsewhere, no way I'd let a rotozip near that install.
Nice door I'm candian
How’s it going, eh?
Would a wheel chair damage that threshold?
What size is your door?
can someone please tell me how to calculate R-values of windows?
How much do they cost?
I really appreciate those glass doors, but I watched too many horror movies, so they ended these types of doors to me
Pichu Moreno … install with shatter proof glass my friend. Shatter proof glass! 😉
What’s the cost ?
Ha! The first install in the US… I had these types of windows installed at my parents house in France in the mid 80’s. Hello America, welcome to the 21st century…. If you teach an apprentice the right way of doing things it doesn’t take him or her more work later to build right but in the US we still build like we did 60-70+ years ago and care more about the bottom line than anything else. The funny thing is that in Europe they also care about making money but they found ways to do so while building very efficient homes that last a long time. So…
How much?
Whats the cost?
I wonder how long it will be before we have solar electric producing qualities embedded into each window.
The tech already exists, buuut the cost doesn't make it worth it. Not yet at least.
How is the clarity? Every layer of film you add must lower it. The off-axis view must get even worse. I get why they are bomber and the r value.
Next, add a natural pool/pond with waterfall to have the beautiful view .
Are you not concerned that the metal strap screwed to to framing at 14:17 will cause the drywall to bulge? Matt Risinger understood my comment. In a recently posted video of a young second generation builder, Matt praised the builder for using a power plane to notch the framing where window straps met the framing and preventing the bulge.
Drywall can easily compress around a screw head like that with some pressure... not exactly the ideal way to do it, but... it can be done....
@@Whiskey11GamingTo make the trim lay flat at the bulge, the trim carpenter will wind up hammer crushing and tearing out the bulging drywall. Been there. Done that. Seen it thousands of times.
