Cold-Climate Engineering
Milwaukee's Lake Michigan location brings lake-effect snow, harsh winters reaching -20°F, and high winds. Glass systems require cold-climate engineering with freeze-thaw resistant mounting, de-icing salt resistant finishes, and wind-rated panels.
Recommended Systems for Milwaukee
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.
