CONFIGURATIONS

The Tuscany horizontal sliding window is designed as an insideslider (the sliding panel, or "vent," slides inside the stationarypanel). Horizontal sliding windows can be used alone or in combina-tion units with radius, gable or picture windows for vent below andvent above configurations.

COMPONENTS

FRAMETuscany is available in a variety of frame and trim choices. The 3-1/4” deep nail on frame is ideal for both New Construction andReplacement installations. We offer a standard nail fin frame for NewConstruction, a Block frame with no fins for insert Replacement andtwo different Z bar flange options, welded into the frame, for stuccoexterior Replacement applications. Frame components are made of ahigh performance uPVC, rigid polyvinyl chloride material, custom com-pounded for superior impact resistance, color retention and weatherresistance. The frame and sash corners are all precision mitered andfusion welded for a lifetime of air and water resistance.

The Tuscany product line meets or exceeds the AAMA/WDMA/CSA101/I.S.2/A 440-05 Industry Specification for Windows and Doors. Theyare also tested for Forced Entry Resistance to the ASTM F588-97 stan-dard, Grade 20 level.

*Not all frame styles available at all Milgard locations.Contact your sales representative for more information.

BLOCK FRAMEThe block frame style is a window frame profile without a nail fin.The block frame allows an installer to insert the replacement win-dow into the existing frame, without disturbing the home’s internalor external wall surfaces. Installation method includes carefully

drilling through the jamb.

Z-BAR (STANDARD AND WIDE)Two extruded Z-bar frame choices are available with Tuscany™ series,standard (1-5/8”) and wide (2-1/8”). Z-bar installation, the method ofremoving the aluminum or steel sash but leaving the frame in place, isideal with aluminum retrofit in stucco applications and can save a sig-nificant amount on installation costs.

NAIL-ON FIN(1-1/4” OR 2” FIN WIDTHS AVAILABLE)A pre-punched nail flange extends around the perimeter frame,securing the window in rough openings and acting as a part of theflashing system.

FIN SETBACKS ARE AVAILABLE IN:1-3/8” nail fin setback (1-1/4” or 2” pre-punched nail flange)1” nail fin setback with stucco key (1-1/4” pre-punched nail flange)

The 2” pre-punched nail flange frame also has an exterior accessorygroove which allows for optional J-channel trim:

2” Brickmold1” Contour3/4” Flat

The 2” brickmold is applied in the field on the window, and snappedin-place after window installation. The 1” contour and 3/4” flat J-Channel options are welded in place at the factory.

All trim options are extruded by Milgard and are available in whiteand tan.

WEEP SYSTEMHollow sill construction and offset weep baffles release any accumu-lated moisture from the sill pockets and help prevent blow back,and helps control the water flow caused by a combination of windand rain.

GLAZING MATERIALAAMA-approved glazing tape adheres glass to the fixed and vent panelframes which seals and cushions the glass. Rigid vinyl setting blocks areused to support the unit above the sill, preventing glass shear (glass inthe insulted unit becomes offset). Extruded vinyl glazing (snap-in) beadis applied around the interior edge.

“Interior glazing” makes replacement of glazing unit convenient; bead ismitered at 45 degree for a finished look. Insulating dual glazed paneshas a 7/8'” overall glass thickness, are dual seal equivalent, sealed foroptimal energy efficiency. All Tuscany™ windows currently meet orexceed EnergyStar® performance in all climate zones with a 0.35 u-factoror lower. Specialty glass options are available upon request which can



help achieve as much as a 26% improvement in u-factor.Specialty glass options for privacy, noise abatement and aesthetics areavailable upon request.

VENT PANELThe vent panel has an “L” shaped lip that fully interlocks with thevertical meeting rail, adding security and preventing air and waterpenetration. Its roller assembly rides on a monorail reversible trackfor easy operation and durability. This raised track in the frame sillhelps keep the vent panel free from interference by foreign particlesthat may collect in the sill.

The Tuscany™ Series has been designed with equal sightlines result-ing in the same size glazing unit for both the fixed and vent panels.This is not only visually appealing but offers simplified field mainte-nance and can often result in common-sized window screens for win-dow systems of more than two units.

WEATHERSTRIPPINGSilicone-treated water-repellent polypropylene fin seal weatherstrip-ping provides a durable, weather tight seal. The weatherstripping isinstalled in an integral, continuous keyway around 3-sides of thevent and on the fixed interlock.

ROLLER ASSEMBLYSelf-lubricating, wear resistant, dual nylon rollers with stainlesssteel axles provide flexible, free-wheeling, smooth and silent opera-tion. The adjustable rollers are engineered for reduction of frictionand torque on the operable vent frame.

LOCKING ASSEMBLYMilgard’s exclusive patent-pending SmartTouch™ direct action lockmechanism provides security and finger-tip operation. The lockengages when the window is closed. The lock offers a visual indicatorthat when the window is closed, it is also locked. The SmartTouch™lock is unlike most locking mechanisms available today as it requiresno squeezing or twisting to operate, making it ideal in designs for theaging in place.

SCREENMilgard's exclusive PureView™ screen frames are cambered alu-minum, assembled with rigid nylon corner clips. Rolled pull rail pro-vides simple installation and removal. Screens come standard withmatching frame color. PureView's innovative screen uses smallerdiameter yarn, improving the interior view. The finer mesh alsoreduces the appearance of a screen, enhancing curb appeal.PureView's fiberglass charcoal screen mesh is strong, durable andeasy to replace. All screens are under one year warranty.

ENERGY PACKAGESMilgard offers two energy efficiency upgrade packages that offerincreased U-Value performance. 3D™ and 3D MAX™ use the ENER-GY STAR® criteria from each climate zone and utilize materials thatare tailored to each individual climate to increase energy efficiency.The combination of the frame material, product design and glazingunit make up the 3 components of the energy packages. TheTuscany Series receives up to 23% increase in energy efficiency withthe 3D MAX package.
