Why We Chose This Manufacturer
A Top 100 window manufacturer, not a wholesale reseller
Climate Solutions has ranked on Window + Door Magazine's Top 100 Manufacturers list five times (2018, 2021–2024). Unlike many brands, they cut and assemble their own Insulated Glass Units in-house at their Franklin Park, Illinois factory instead of ordering them in. That means tighter quality control on every unit Timberwolf installs.

Step 2 · Know what you are buying
How a Climate Solutions window is built
Most window brochures talk about glass. The reason these windows hold their rating in Albuquerque's sun and 24° daily temperature swings is what is in the frame. Here is every piece, in plain English.
4-corner fusion welded
Frame and sash corners are melted together at a controlled temperature instead of screwed. One continuous piece, no seam for water or air to find. Exceeds residential structural testing requirements.
CS Ultra Spacer™, dual seal, no metal
The spacer is what holds the two panes apart. This one is closed-cell polymer foam with two seals and no metal, so the edge of the glass stays warmer, resists condensation and mold, and is rated to last up to five times longer than single-seal spacers.
12-layer ClimaPlus 3 low-E glass
Twelve coatings on the glass control solar heat and block fade-causing UV while keeping high visibility. Argon or krypton gas between the panes. Qualifies for ENERGY STAR in all four climate zones.
Low-profile sloped sill
A multi-chamber I-beam sill with an interlocking dam. Water that hits the sill drains out instead of pooling against the sash. Less visible frame, more glass.
Thermal reinforcement (option)
Bio-based reinforcement inside the meeting rail in place of aluminum. Same stiffness for large windows, but it insulates about 700 times better than aluminum, so it does not become a cold bridge.
Bio Foam insulated frame (option)
The hollow frame chambers are filled with USDA-certified soy-based foam. Quieter, warmer in winter, cooler in summer, and it is what lifts the package to the top ENERGY STAR tier.
Tilt-in sashes
Both sashes on a double hung tilt into the room, so second-story glass gets cleaned from inside. Sliders use a lift-out sash with an anti-break-in catch.
Pressure-gasket bulb seal
On casement and awning windows the wind pushes the sash tighter against a continuous bulb seal, so the harder it blows, the tighter the window gets.
Multi-point locking
One handle throws locks at several points around the sash. It pulls the sash evenly into the seal for a tighter window and makes prying it from outside impractical.
Fold-away crank handle
Casement and awning handles fold flat so blinds and shades sit flush against the frame.
Self-lubricating brass rollers
US-made, rust-resistant brass rollers carry the slider sash, so it still glides with one finger years later.
Blinds between the glass (option)
Blinds sealed inside the insulated unit. They never collect dust, never tangle, and never need cleaning.
100% pure virgin vinyl, 0% plastic fillers
Recycled vinyl and filler blends dry out and chalk under New Mexico UV, then warp or crack. Every Climate Solutions frame is extruded from virgin vinyl, which is why the color and shape hold for the life of the warranty.
Made in Franklin Park, Illinois
Climate Solutions is a Top 100 US window manufacturer and makes its own insulated glass units in-house, so the glass, spacer and frame are built to work together rather than assembled from three suppliers.
Bay, bow and garden windows
Built like furniture, because you sit on them
Bay and bow units are a window and a piece of structure at the same time. These are the parts that keep them square and warm for decades.
Solid hardwood frame
Oak or birch hardwood-veneer plywood, 67% thicker than the common 3/4" design, hand-selected at the mill. Pre-finished in White, Almond, Light Oak, Dark Oak, Colonial Cherry, Maple or Natural.
Timberstrand® laminated mullions
The vertical posts between the windows are laminated lumber, 25% stronger than solid wood and they will not warp or twist like ponderosa pine. Lag-bolted to the head and seat.
R-9 triple-layer insulated seat
A 1" high-density polyisocyanurate foam core (Dow Tuff-R) between two hardwood layers. The seat is warm to sit on in January and does not sweat in July.
Turn-buckled cable support
Steel cables with 6" eye-hook lag bolts tie the head of the unit back into the house framing, so the seat is strong enough to actually be a seat.
Garden window glass shelf
3/16" tempered glass shelf on units to 50" wide, trapezoid side vents on stainless hinges, and the same R-9 seat.
Built for This Climate
New Mexico's sun and altitude are hard on windows. This glass package is built for both.
Albuquerque gets more direct UV exposure and wider daily temperature swings than most of the country, which is the same reason roofs age faster here. Standard clear glass lets that heat and UV straight through, fading floors and furniture and driving up cooling bills.
- ✓ Blocks 95% of UV rays, which protects flooring, furniture and fabrics from fading
- ✓ Argon gas between panes slows heat transfer in both directions
- ✓ Low-E coatings reject summer heat while retaining winter warmth
- ✓ 100% pure virgin vinyl frames won't warp or crack in high-UV, high-heat conditions the way recycled-filler vinyl can
By The Numbers
Energy Package Options
Every 8100 Series window starts with ClimaGlass. For homes that want even more protection from Albuquerque’s sun and temperature swings, Climate Solutions offers upgraded packages with more stacked layers and an optional soy-based Bio Foam core.
ClimaPlus 3
12 layers · U 0.27 · SHGC 0.21
The 12-layer low-E package every 8100 Series window ships with. ENERGY STAR in all four zones, rejects summer heat and 95% of fade-causing UV, reflects heat back inside in winter.
ClimaShield
14 layers · U 0.24 · SHGC 0.20
Triple-pane performance in a double-pane window, without the weight or the thicker frame. The right answer for west-facing rooms and anything with a view of the Sandias.
ClimaShield + Bio Foam
14 layers · U 0.22 · SHGC 0.20
Same glass with the soy-based foam-filled frame. Highest ENERGY STAR version (V7), quietest window in the line, and the best choice next to a busy street.

Lower U-Factor and SHGC numbers mean better insulation and less solar heat gain, and both matter in Albuquerque’s high-UV, wide-temperature-swing climate. Our energy-efficient windows guide walks through what to look for. Figures are manufacturer specifications for double-hung configurations and can vary slightly by size and style.

Two Door Systems, Same Glass Technology
Climate Solutions builds its doors on the same ClimaGlass, CS Ultra Spacer, and fusion-welded frame technology as the 8100 Series windows above. There are two, a European tilt & turn door and a sliding patio door, and both are available through Timberwolf.
6000 Series
European Tilt & Turn Door
One handle, three positions. Turn it down and the door seals hermetically with continuous double weatherstripping. Turn it up and the top tilts in up to 4″ for secure, ventilated airflow without opening the door. Turn it further and the entire sash swings open on nearly invisible hinges for full walk-through access.
- ✓ Multi-point locking system around the full perimeter
- ✓ Steel-reinforced frame and sash in key structural areas
- ✓ Optional visible hinges for a nearly 180° swing-open door
- ✓ ENERGY STAR® qualified glass packages available
9000 Series
Sliding Patio Door
A 4-corner fusion-welded frame with steel reinforcement in the meeting and mobile stiles, riding on patented dual-tandem nylon wheels for a smooth, quiet glide that holds up to years of daily use.
- ✓ Foot-activated lock with a secure venting position
- ✓ Low-profile sill for easier, safer entry and exit
- ✓ 2, 3, or 4-panel configurations, up to 96″ tall
- ✓ Full Spectrum Color Lab™ custom exterior paint matching

Questions
Windows & Doors FAQ
Is Climate Solutions the same as the roofing materials Timberwolf carries?
No. Climate Solutions is a separate, Chicago-based manufacturer that Timberwolf became an authorized dealer for specifically to offer windows and doors. It's a distinct product line from our GAF and Enviroshake roofing materials.
Who actually installs the windows?
Timberwolf manages your project from quote through completion. On-site installation is performed by our fully vetted, contracted installation team, working under Timberwolf's oversight and warranty.
Does the 8100 Series come in colors other than white?
Yes. Climate Solutions offers a range of standard interior and exterior colors, plus a Premium Color Match program that can match almost any exterior color you want. Ask your Timberwolf estimator for current swatch options.
Do you install entry or patio doors too?
Yes. Timberwolf installs Climate Solutions' 6000 Series European Tilt & Turn door and 9000 Series sliding patio door alongside the 8100 Series windows, both backed by the same lifetime warranty and precision manufacturing.
What does the warranty actually cover?
Climate Solutions backs its residential windows with a limited, transferable lifetime warranty covering parts, glass, and hardware, which means it can carry over to a new owner if you sell your home.
