SCHUCO uPVC
Windows and Doors

CORONA CT 70

PVC-based window have come a long way since their early adoption. Once perceived as low-durability "budget" windows, they have now become top performers in quality, durability, structural stability and energy performance.

In fact, our SCHUCO uPVC windows have the highest energy rating in the US, outperforming all brands of wood windows including our own line of luxury wood windows.

Available in three Designs
SCHUCO CT70 windows are available in Three designs:
  • Classic
  • Cava
  • Rondo
Each of these designs provides customers with a slightly different visual signature. Architects may prefer one design to another depending on whether they want a modern or a more traditional look.Indistinguishable from Wood

Indistinguishable from Wood SCHUCO windows are now available in wood tones making them virtually indistinguishable from wood windows. Can you tell the difference?




Which of these two windows is made of wood
and which is made of uPVC?


Top Energy Performance

The performance of insulated glass is the primary factor determining the energy performance of a window. SCHUCO windows use the highest efficiency double-pane insulated glass on the US market. For the most demanding application we offer our windows with the option of a triple-pane Krypton-filled glass providing customers with a product that is almost 300% more efficient than the standard residential window.Apart from glass, the frame of a window and its sash have a significant impact on the "combined" energy performance a window. That is the reason why windows have a significantly lower U-value than the glass installed in them - listed as "Center of Glass" or COG U-value. uPVC profiles are extruded with small air chambers inside the frame which makes them the most efficient sash and frame materials, superior to wood or dramatically better than aluminum which is a strong heat conductor. Our CT70 model uses a 5-chamber profile. For ultra-efficient applications and triple-pane glazing we also offer the 6-chamber SI82 model and 8-chamber SI82PLUS.

Efficiency means Major Savings

With the energy prices on the rise, the investment in quality windows is becoming a critical financial decision. And you do not have to wait years to realize your savings. In many new construction projects, the use of our high-efficiency windows dramatically reduce the size of the required heating and cooling equipment. In luxury homes, with extensive use of "walls of glass", a high-efficiency window can save 50,000BTUs or more when conducting energy demand calculation.

Excellent Sound Insulation

Multi-chamber uPVC profiles have the added benefit of being extremely effective in deadening sound. This makes SCHUCO windows a great choice for municipal applications or homes that are close to noisy roads or railways. In addition, our windows are available with a Laminated Glass option further improving their sound insulation performance.

Durability and Zero

Maintenance SCHUCO windows are build from UV stabilized materials protecting them from solar exposure and discoloration, a problem often observed on older "Vinyl" windows. I addition, our profiles are reinforced with zinc-coated steel profiles providing large windows with great strength and dimensional stability.
