Hurd’s Award-Winning H3TM Technology Now Available as Pocket Window

H3 Pocket Window joins Hurd’s complete ‘ReWindow’ replacement line

Medford, WI – January 19, 2010 – Hurd Windows and Doors H3TM technology, which was named “The Most Innovative Window of the Year”* in 2009, is now available as a pocket window for the replacement market. This H3 technology is already generating widespread industry interest for bringing to market a wood window replacement alternative with exceptional environmental benefits at an affordable price-point.
The H3, which will be featured prominently in Hurd’s Re-Window replacement line – including the newly launched TranscendTM line, is a highly energy-efficient window that outperforms many premium-priced products. With its remarkably advanced Fusion Technology™, the H3 integrates the three components of extruded aluminum, vinyl and solid wood into a single window. This innovative approach results in greater energy efficiency, upscale aesthetics, easier installation, superior durability, and advanced leak resistance.
H3 windows save energy and money while keeping homeowners more comfortable. With Hurd’s new Low-E 366 glass, it achieves a U-factor of .29, qualifying for the $1,500 energy tax credit and exceeds Energy Star® requirements for all regions. It meets stringent energy efficiency specifications set by the Department of Energy, and has been simulated, validated and certified by the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC).
Hurd’s H3 windows do more than just fit the spaces of old windows, notes Hurd Vice President of Marketing Joe Herman. “They are fully customizable to blend in with any style of décor.” Made with the same premium woods, design options, hardware, grilles, performance and decorative glazing as premium-priced windows, only the homeowner will know that they were mid-priced.
“Overall, this is a remarkably advanced window. We have done everything we can to not only make the H3 of the highest quality components, but also to make it as beautiful as possible. Nobody has ever built a window like this before,” says Herman. “And to that end, Hurd is the only company with the confidence to offer lifetime limited protection on windows in this price range. We are very proud of these windows and stand behind their long-term dependability.”
