When you’re designing or constructing a building, glazing is not just a decorative feature— it’s an engineered system that affects thermal performance, occupant comfort, safety, and code compliance. The right installation can be the difference between a façade that performs flawlessly for decades and one plagued by leaks, condensation, or energy loss. At Glass Project Solutions Ltd., we specialise in custom Kelowna glass installation for residential, commercial, and institutional projects across Canada. Our team works closely with builders and architects to ensure every unit is correctly specified, fabricated, and installed.
Properly installed glazing reduces heat gain and heat loss that can account for 25‑30% of heating and cooling energy use. Recognising this, we adhere to the CAN/CSA A440.4 installation standard, which provides guidelines for installing factory‑assembled windows, doors, and skylights to prevent energy waste and water infiltration. We integrate these requirements with the National Building Code of Canada (NBCC) and North American Fenestration Standard (NAFS) to ensure your project meets provincial regulations.

The selection of framing material affects strength, thermal performance, maintenance and aesthetics.
Lightweight and corrosion‑resistant, aluminium is the workhorse of commercial glazing. We specify extrusions with polyamide thermal breaks that minimise heat transfer through the frame. Aluminium is easily anodised or powder‑coated to meet design palettes.
Steel frames offer slim sightlines and high structural capacity, enabling large spans or slender mullions. We galvanise and paint steel to resist corrosion. Steel is ideal for heritage restorations where narrow profiles are desired.
Fibreglass frames exhibit low thermal conductivity and dimensional stability. They can accommodate triple glazing without significant deflection. Because fibreglass expansion closely matches glass, it reduces stress at the glazing interface.
In boutique or historic settings, wood adds warmth and natural beauty. We use engineered wood with exterior aluminium cladding to ensure long‑term durability while preserving aesthetics.
Frame choice must align with the climate zone, thermal goals, structural load, and budget. For buildings under Part 9 of the NBCC, windows and doors must be tested and labelled to NAFS; frames must match or exceed the positive and negative design pressure, water penetration resistance, and air infiltration requirements for the location.
Modern glazing uses insulated glass units (IGUs) comprising two or three panes separated by spacers and sealed around the perimeter to create an airtight cavity. These cavities are often filled with argon or krypton gas to improve insulation.
Choosing the right glazing requires understanding how windows are rated. The following table summarises key metrics (short phrases ensure conciseness)
| Parameter | Importance/Focus |
|---|---|
| U‑factor | Rate of heat transfer through the window; lower values mean better insulation |
| Visible Transmittance (VT) | Amount of daylight transmitted; higher values improve daylighting |
| Design Pressure | Structural wind load rating (positive and negative) measured in Pascals; must match local wind exposure. |
| Air Infiltration | Air leakage rate: Canadian codes require a minimum A2 rating (better ratings indicate tighter assemblies) |
| Performance Class | NAFS classification (R, LC, CW, AW) corresponding to building type and height. |
Verify that wall rough openings are plumb, level, and square. Any deviations can cause racking or leakage after installation. We add shims under sill framing to distribute loads evenly and maintain slope for drainage.
We install a continuous sill pan or sub‑sill flashing to direct water to the exterior. Upturned end dams prevent lateral water migration. Self‑adhered membranes are lapped in shingle fashion and integrated with air/water barriers.
Continuous gaskets, backer rods, and sealants form the air‑ and vapour‑tight transitions between the window frame and wall. We select sealants compatible with adjacent substrates and design joints to accommodate movement.
Anchors must be sized and spaced to resist design loads; the types include screws, embeds, or brackets. The A440.4 standard allows flexibility to adapt to various wall constructions and encourages shimming techniques that accommodate insulation and sheathing.
At slab edges or spandrel panels, thermal breaks reduce condensation risk. We insulate around frames without compressing the insulation. For window walls, we design slab edge covers to conceal insulation and maintain continuous vapour barriers.
Where specified, we conduct field water penetration tests and air leakage tests to verify performance. A440.4 emphasises field testing consistency with NAFS. We also verify that labels remain in place until inspections are complete.

The NBCC divides building codes into Part 9 (small buildings without a design professional) and Part 3 (large buildings requiring professional design). For Part 9 residential buildings, products must be tested and labelled to NAFS with Canadian Supplement A440S1‐09. For custom or site-built glazing outside NAFS scope (e.g., curtain walls), designers must meet the NBCC Part 5 requirements using engineered calculations and testing.
NAFS classification includes four performance classes: R (residential), LC (light commercial), CW (commercial), and AW (architectural). These classes correspond to building type, height, and expected loads. Each class has associated performance grades (PG15 to PG100), measured in increments of 240 Pa, denoting design pressure and mandatory auxiliary tests for air and water leakage. In Canada, water and air performance are specified separately from PG rating, allowing designers to demand higher levels of airtightness or watertightness for any performance grade.
Selecting glazing that meets local conditions requires understanding wind exposure, terrain, and height. The NBCC identifies two terrain categories: One is closed terrain (protected by other buildings or trees), and the other is open terrain (exposed to wind over water or open fields). The Fenestration Canada calculator helps determine the required design pressure, water test pressure, and air rating based on these factors. Our team can perform these calculations for you and select or engineer products accordingly.
