DEMO 1
Vista Series: The New Standard in Aluminum Windows & Doors
At the Pella Vista Series demo, Pella product experts will showcase the all-new product line of thermally broken aluminum windows and doors built for ultra-modern architecture. By interacting with live finish and glazing samples, attendees will learn about the modular system's slim profiles and expansive glass; how large-scale casements, no-post corner windows and pivot doors connect into custom configurations; and the thermal-break technology and extensive finish options that give builders and homeowners more design flexibility.
DEMO 2
The Cost of a Bad Install: Securing Your Project's Integrity
This presentation is designed for builders and contractors committed to protecting their bottom line and professional reputation. We move beyond the initial product price to expose the hidden financial and operational drain caused by poor-quality window and door installations.
Learn how subpar installations lead directly to:
- Reputational damage: Air and water leaks that erode client trust and generate negative referrals.
- Financial erosion: Excessive callbacks, liability risks, and costly remediation caused by inadequate sealing and flashing.
Pella doesn't just sell windows and doors; we deliver an integrated system engineered for long-term performance. We will demonstrate the critical importance of proper installation techniques and certified materials and the Pella difference that significantly minimizes risk, maximizes durability and ensures the guaranteed, lasting quality your reputation is built upon.
DEMO 3
Air Sealing & Window Installation Performance
At Pella’s Air Sealing and Window Installation Performance demo, Pella installation experts and top industry builders will demonstrate a live ASTM E1105/AAMA 502 water test. By interacting with the test parameters, attendees will learn about the importance of the interior seal and other elements of the installation; water testing procedures and how they correlate to extreme weather conditions and when the testing is used; and how to improve the quality of the installations they provide their customers.
