Cold-Climate Engineering
Madison's isthmus location between two lakes creates unique weather patterns with cold winters, lake-effect precipitation, and significant seasonal variation. Glass systems require cold-climate specifications.
Recommended Systems for Madison
Extreme cold requires specialized engineering: 316 stainless steel hardware rated to -40°F, EPDM gaskets that maintain flexibility at extreme cold, drainage provisions that prevent ice buildup and frost heaving, and de-icing salt resistant finishes. INFINITYGLASS cold-climate specifications address snow accumulation at base shoes and thermal contraction stress on mounting points.
