"We ordered VETTA windows for our own Off grid Home and we absolutely love them. Alec and his team were very helpful and went above and beyond to make sure we made the right choices. Our bedroom window is wall to wall, floor to ceiling and it is just amazing! The quality and performance of are second to none. I`m glad to have them in my home and every potential clients I show my home to (I`m a Builder) want these windows in their new home. Thank you VETTA!""

"Wanted to send a quick note of thanks for all your support and direction on our window/door order. I also wanted to pass along how many compliments we’ve been receiving, from all the trades coming through. Everyone - literally everyone - who comes through our house comments on how gorgeous and effective the windows are...it’s amazing how, with only a couple tiny space heaters, the house is warm enough to work in a t-shirt. It’s also incredibly silent, the windows cut out all the noise from passing traffic. On top of that, the clear pine is simply stunning.

"We rebuilt our home from the ground up with energy efficiency at the top of the priority list. When looking for windows and doors that could support those objectives in North America, there is very little to choose from. VETTA produces extremely high quality European windows and doors. You can feel it in the mechanisms and the weight when you open them. Their triple glazed, wood with aluminum is as premium as windows get and comparable in price to premium name brand double glazed in Canada. They have a very attentive team to help you customize your order. They were a pleasure to deal with."
Janet, Home Owner

"Our VETTA Windows and Doors are the stars of the house. Every single person who walks through our home comments on them. The quality is spectacular, the look is modern and clean, and the performance is beyond any window or door you can buy elsewhere. Most importantly is the care they take with each and every client. I have called them numerous times and each time they listen, and are willing to go above and beyond to make sure we are thrilled with their product. We have never before experienced this level of customer service. I cannot more highly recommend them. If I could give them 10 stars I would!"
Fine European Craftsmanship
Our manufacturing partners are leaders in hand crafted custom innovative design and thermal performance.
They are passionate about their work and about protecting the local forests that support their livelihoods and communities.
They use only the highest quality materials including:
-
Sustainably harvested European pine (Pinus Sylvestris), a dense species with higher strength and thermal properties as compared to other pines.
-
European glass with exceptional clarity and performance low-e coatings.
-
German steel hardware.
-
Heavy gauge aluminum cladding, sills, and screens.
Why wood?
Wood contributes to healthy indoor air quality. It offers superior durability, structural rigidity and the widest range of shapes and sizes. It is easy to care for and easy to repair.
Wood harvested from sustainably managed forests protects ecosystems, wildlife and watersheds. It is the leading method of carbon capture critical for climate resiliency as recommended by the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
Why high performance?
High performance glass makes a well-insulated wall assembly perform better.
Low performance glass drags down overall performance, no matter what you do with the walls.
Good glass improves performance exponentially.

What is a Passive House?
In 1977, the first passive build, Canada's Saskatchewan Conservation House, ignited a global movement. Later perfected by the Passive House Institute in Germany, this revolutionary design has proven successful all over the world, from the far north to the tropics.
Just like a thermos keeps liquids hot or cold, a Passive House stays cool in the summer and warm in the winter with little or no need for energy powered heating or cooling.
Passive House Essentials:
-
Super-insulated Envelope
-
Airtight Construction
-
High Performance Windows & Doors
-
Thermal Bridge Free Detailing
-
Heat Recovery Ventilation
