EM NARI members gathered at the new Pella showroom in Natick, MA for our annual summer networking event. The evening featured great food and drinks and a beautiful showroom with the latest windows and doors that feature unparalleled energy efficiency and style. The showroom is central to the Natick, Wellesley, Framingham, Wayland, and Sherborn areas. The evening capped off with a visit from the Uhlman’s ice cream truck from Westborough – courtesy of Divine Stoneworks.  With a wealth of product technology and support for contractors, Pella can support EM NARI remodelers as they work with clients throughout the remodeling process.  Special thanks to Pella for hosting!

Pella’s newest offering, Pella® Lifestyle Series wood windows and patio doors can be customized to fit homeowners’ needs and budgets with performance packages and innovative options.

Performance Packages

Choose from the following performance packages that greatly improve energy efficiency and/or noise reduction compared to single-pane windows:

• Performance: 71% more energy efficient¹ plus 34% more noise reduction.²
• Sound Control: 52% more noise reduction.²

Innovation Options

Pella Lifestyle Series windows and patio doors are customizable with these options:

• Integrated blinds and shades. Between the glass in triple-pane windows or patio doors, integrated blinds and shades harbor fewer indoor allergens than roomside window treatments. And they’re protected from dust, damage and little hands. Optional motorization controls window coverings with the touch of a button.
• Integrated security sensors. Homeowners can monitor windows or doors away from home with the Pella Insynctive® App.³
• Unique screen option. Rolscreen® retractable screens available on casement windows and sliding patio doors roll out of sight when not in use.
• Easy cleaning. The sashes on double-hung windows tilt in for easy cleaning. Casement windows are designed for easy cleaning from inside the house. Also available with optional grilles-between-the-glass or removeable grilles.
• Glass options. Pella’s InsulShield® Glass Collection features innovative energy-saving choices designed for specific climate types.
• Innovative lock system. Pella’s patented system secures casement and awning windows in two places and they open with a single, easy-to-reach handle.
• Innovative window sealing. Casement and awning locking system reaches out to pull the window sash tightly against the weatherstripping to create a stronger seal.
• Fold-away cranks. Handles fold neatly out of the way so they won’t interfere with roomside window treatments.

Pella Lifestyle Series wood windows and patio doors are covered by the best limited lifetime warranty for wood windows and patio doors.⁴

¹Window energy efficiency calculated in a computer simulation using RESFEN 6.0 default parameters for a 2,000-square-foot new construction single-story home when Pella® Lifestyle Series windows with the respective performance package are compared to a single-pane wood or vinyl window. The energy efficiency and actual savings will vary by location. The average window energy efficiency is based on a national average of 94 modeled cities across the country and weighting based on population. For more details see pella.com/methodology.

²Reduction in sound based on OITC ratings of Pella Lifestyle Series windows with respective performance package compared to a single-pane wood or vinyl window with an OITC of 19. Calculated by using the sound transmission loss values in the 80 to 4,000 Hz range as measured in accordance with ASTM E-90(09). Actual results may vary.
