ENGINEERING - Windows

Your sunroom’s most defining feature is its windows. That’s why TEMO takes providing you the best sunroom windows available very seriously. TEMO sunrooms meet or exceed all national engineering codes – and go a step beyond.

TEMO windows are AAMA Gold Label Certified! Only the best win the gold. TEMO’s standard single-pane and double-pane IG windows offer industry-leading performance in the ways that matter most to you, backed by AMMA Gold Label Certification.

To achieve this prestigious and rare recognition, TEMO windows passed 6 demanding tests by the nation’s leading independent testing organization – The American Architectural Manufacturers Association.

AAMA Gold Label Certification assures you that TEMO windows are:

• Built with durable sash-to-glass construction
• Air and water tight
• Secure against intruders
• Easy to operate

 

AMMA: Tests and Extended Explanations

	Air Infiltration – Windows are tested for the amount of air that can leak past the window frame. TEMO windows passed with less than the allowable 0.3 cubic feet per minute rate of air infiltration. Even a windy day is draft-free in our sunrooms!
	Water Infiltration – This test reproduces rigorous pelting rain for an extended period of time and demands that not a single drop of water leak past the window. You’ll stay dry in your TEMO sunroom, relaxing and enjoying the rain.
	Forced Entry – You want to be sure that your windows are secure against intruders. This stringent test applies 200 pounds of force to attempt to pull the window from its latch with a screwdriver and a putty knife. TEMO windows passed with only one latch attached. All our windows come standard with two latch locks. You’ll rest easy knowing that your sunroom offers a superb barrier against entry to your sunroom – and your home!
	Sash-to-Glass Connection – Knowing that your windows are built to last is important. This test places the sash in a jig and extreme force is applied. Our windows recorded minimum sash movement away from the glass, offering excellent assurance of long-term, durable construction.
	Ease of Operation – The best windows don’t mean anything if they aren’t easy to use day to day. TEMO windows passed tests for the amount of force required to open and close them. Ours fell far below the 20-pound allowable requirement with only 12 pounds of force required to operate it. This means that everyone in the family can comfortably use our windows.

TEMO Window Engineering Also Includes
These Standard Features:

• HPG 2000 with SPF (Solar Protection Factor)
  High Performance Glass is tempered for safety and strength and designed with integrated protection against UV penetration, while optimally performs to block summer heat, but allow winter light. Available in single and double IG glass.
  
• Interlocking Meeting Rail
  Double-sliding window designed to meet at a center rail for structural integrity.
  
• Security Window Locks
  Adjustable locking system can be positioned to personal height preference for convenience or childproof protection.
  
• DDS 2000 Dirt-Resistant Treatment
  Exterior glass treatment works like Teflon to help keep dirt and water off windows, reducing maintenance.
  
• E-Z Lift Screens
  Self-healing, puncture-resistant, removable from interior for easy window cleaning.
  

WINDOWS - Wall System

TEMO’s unique Window Wall System leads the industry in structural strength, insulation, durability and design. TEMO sunrooms are so structurally sound they are designed to withstand even hurricane-force winds. Custom-engineered for your room, TEMO pre-assembles their thermal Window Wall panels for easy installation on your home by Sandia Sunrooms. This system reduces installation time to just 1-2 days on an approved foundation.

 

TEMO Window Wall Engineering Includes
These Standard Features:

• Treated Aluminum Extrusions

  Treated aluminum extrusions TEMKOR exterior surface bonded to a 2-lb-density thermal foam core using the SBA process Vinyl bulb French handle and deadbolt lock system

  
  Provides superior skeletal structural strength and weather resistance.
  
• TEMKOR
  Exclusive interior/exterior indestructible polymer surface. Lifetime warranty against scratching, denting, fading, chalking. TEMKOR blocks UV penetration that can cause other surface materials to delaminate from the insulation core.
  
• SBA (Structural Bonding Agent)
  Molecular bonding process ensures lifetime seal of TEMKOR surfacing to Polystyrene insulating core.
  
• Internal Weep System
  Internal system channels water away from the room.
  
• 2-lb-Density Structural Thermal Foam Core
  EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) compressed to an industry-leading density for maximum thermal performance.
  
• Dual Vinyl Bulb Seal
  Similar to a refrigerator seal, located at top and bottom channels, offers weather-tight and insect-resistant protection between the walls and the foundation, and between the walls and the roof.
  
• Welded Corner & Dual Door Sweep Full-View Prime Entry Door
  Welded corners provide reinforcing commercial strength. Dual door sweeps increase the weather protection.
  
• French Handle
  Attractive brass or color-coordinated powder-coat finish option.
  
• Deadbolt Lock System
  Extra security against intrusion.

 

 

 

 

ENGINEERING - Roof

TEMO revolutionized the industry with the first thermal sunroom roof in 1971. On going product development has contributed to additional structural and engineering innovations that provide superior strength, weather protection, insulation and maintenance-free convenience.

  Allows most effective protection against weather and seasonal expansion while providing additional structural integrity.
  
• Vinyl Roof Cleat
  Designed to attractively conceal the interior seam and provide additional seam integrity against weather.
  
• Thermally Broken Hanging Rail
  Roof attachment system designed with a thermal break to reduce cold transfer to the roof to increase thermal protection.
  
• Krystal Kote® Roof Coating
  Electrostatically applied to the exterior shell for the hardest coating available to add luster while protecting against scratches, corrosion, fading.
  
• Integrated Structural-Grade Aluminum Extruded Gutter System
  Thicker grade than residential gutters for superior life and performance.
  
• Leaf Guard
  Blocks debris accumulation for maintenance-free gutter performance.

 

 

ENGINEERING - Thermal Components

What is a “Thermal” Sunroom?

A TEMO thermal sunroom is a room specifically engineered to help control the interior environment of your sunroom for maximum comfort during the seasons of use. The “thermal” protection is primarily provided by the type and amount of insulation within the wall and roof systems, working together with high-quality window systems and other engineering. TEMO uses industry-leading 2-lb high-density Expanded Polystyrene, recognized as the most effective and durable insulation material in sunrooms.

A TEMO thermal sunroom also means that you can use it longer through the seasons. The options in wall systems are designed to help you select the room that meets your expectations for use and geographical requirements, without paying for more than you require. TEMO sunrooms are designed to provide 3-season use, or extended-season use.
