There are many great window manufacturers in the United States that offer numerous lines of windows, materials, shapes and sizes. One of the top window manufacturer's we carry at Reflection Window & Doors is JELD-WEN.  The nice thing about carrying a line of replacement windows by this company is they extensive amount of windows they make.  They manufacturer casement, awning, double-hung, horizontal sliding, radius and geometric windows along with numerous patio doors.

Another great feature about JELD-WEN windows is the numerous glass options they offer for all of their replacement windows.  Here are the types of glass you can get in your new windows from JELD-WEN.

1.) Tinted Glass:
Tinted glass reduces glare and is ideal for areas that get direct sunlight. JELD-WEN offers clear, green, grey, bronze, reflective grey and reflected bronze tinted glass available for all of their windows.

2.) Tempered Glass:
Tempered glass is treated with heat so it is able to withstand greater pressure on its surface.  This type of glass will not shatter in to sharp pieces and comes in a variety of textures.  Tempered glass is mostly used on patio doors or windows that are installed near floor level like a bathroom.

3.) Textured Glass: 
Textured glass allows you to let light into an area while still maintaining your privacy.  JELD-WEN offers a wide range of textured glass which allows you to choose a pattern that fits the style of your room.  The most popular choices of textured glass is rain, obscure and glue chip.
