Enviro-Foam Insulated Sashes and Frame
The Cabernet Elite Window System: Energy-Saving Design
To increase thermal performance, B.F. Rich’s Elite Windows have polyurethane Enviro-Foam injected into specific cavities inside the vinyl frame and sashes. This reduces heat transfer rates and improves condensation resistance.
Mold Protection
Unlike other foam-insulated windows, Elite sashes have a capillary tube that is inserted and sealed in the lower sash rails for residual moisture drainage. This innovative design prevents residual moisture from being absorbed into the Enviro-Foam so it maintains its insulating properties and provides protection against the formation of mold.
DP-55 Rating
Elite double-Hung windows are tested to a DP-55 Rating. They are all-vinyl maintenance free construction that will never crack, rot, or peel, will never need painting and is easy to clean.
Triple glazed 7/8-inch insulating glass includes two lites of soft coat Low-E and patented DuraSeal™ warm edge spacer. Sure-Fill argon gas provides optimal insulating value to save you precious heating and cooling dollars.

Tilt’N'Slide Design
The Elite Tilt’N’Slide™ design allows the window to open easily and lock into any position for increased flexibility. Now exterior glass can be cleaned quickly and safely from inside the house. Homeowners can breathe easy with increased ventilation because they can now open their windows all the way.
Elite Tilt’N’Slide™ also provides peace of mind in an emergency situation, opening fully to allow fast and easy egress.
Not all tilt-in window hardware is created equal. Tilt’N’Slide™ is the safest tilt-in hardware on the market today. Only Tilt’N’Slide™ securely locks the sash to the frame before tilting inward, preventing it from falling and injuring the homeowner and eliminating liability issues for the manufacturer. Other hardware systems only apply brake pressure, increasing the possibility of the sash falling out of the frame before the brakes are fully engaged.
Elite Tilt’N’Slide™ features a calliper brake system that clamps the sash like a vice while competitors use an expanding shoe brake system that relies on friction between plastic hardware and a PVC frame.
The Elite’s Anti-Swing Lock feature is made of high-performance DuPont Delrin allows the sash to be locked into any open position.
Elite’s Tilt’N’Slide™ also allows for a quick escape in emergency situations, because windows can be opened further and faster than conventional windows.
Simply swing your Tilt’N’Slide™ window into any desired position and extend the anti-swing lever on the swing shoe to lock the position of the sash in the desired position. The use of DuPont™ Delrin® provides superior friction locking instead of common PVC materials, ensuring a positive lock every time.
To close the window, simply depress the lever on the swing shoe. The window is then free to swing closed. Should the window be accidentally forced to close, the swing shoe lever will automatically move into the release position, preventing breakage of the hardware.
B.F. Rich Casement & Awning windows
Awning Window
Casement and awning windows align beautifully with stationary or architectural shape frames.
Awning windows have the same frame and sash as a casement window except they are usually wider than they are tall and are hinged on the top and crank open from the bottom towards the outside of the house.
Awning windows can be used alone or positioned above or below a window or door to add ventilation and light to a room. When placed in rows or even against other windows, they can create a ”wall of light” effect that adds beauty and functionality to a room.
Features and Benefits
- 90° opening for optimum ventilation.
- Ability to clean the window from the inside of your home.
- Concealed hinges create a sleek appearance inside and out.
- Multi-point locking system allows for easy operation and provides security and a tight seal.
