Performance & compliance
Engineered beyond aesthetics.
Minimal frames are only half the work. Behind every ORLUTI system is the engineering that lets glass walls meet US energy codes: thermal breaks, rated glazing packages, and documentation your project team can put in front of an energy consultant or plan checker.
Performance pillars
Thermally broken aluminum profiles engineered to reduce heat transfer between exterior and interior — slim sightlines without the thermal penalty of cold-bridged framing.
NFRC-rated configurations available. Whole-product ratings help architects and energy consultants verify performance against project requirements.
Learn more →Configurations available for projects subject to California Title 24 requirements. System and glazing selection are matched to the project's climate zone and compliance path.
Learn more →Low-E, insulated, laminated, and project-specific glass configurations. The glass package is selected per project — orientation, shading, acoustics, and code all weigh in.
Performance specifications available by system — air, water, and structural behavior documented per configuration for specification and submittal.
Performance and compliance vary by system, glazing configuration, project location, and applicable code requirements.

Code questions are
project questions.
A U-Factor on a datasheet doesn't approve a project — the right combination of system, glass, and documentation does. Send us the window and door schedule and our engineering desk returns project-specific configurations: frame series, glazing build-up, and the performance data your energy consultant needs to verify the compliance path.
- Project-specific U-Factor and SHGC configurations based on system and glazing selection
- Documentation packages for specification, submittal, and plan check
- System recommendations matched to climate zone and orientation
- Support for architects, energy consultants, and general contractors
