From NYC brownstones replacing century-old windows to Upstate homes battling Buffalo's 94 inches of annual snow — New York demands window performance that no American brand delivers. VEKA Therm-82 Passive and Schüco MB-104 Passive are the European answer, available factory-direct to all NY zip codes.
New York is a tale of two window markets. In New York City, the priority is noise reduction, historic aesthetics, and compliance with increasingly strict energy codes — including Local Law 97, which penalizes buildings for excess emissions. In Upstate New York — Buffalo, Syracuse, Rochester — it's raw thermal performance against winters that regularly drop to -15°F and produce more snow than almost anywhere in the continental US.
European tilt & turn windows address both markets. In NYC: inward-opening sashes that never require leaning out of a high-rise window to clean, multi-point locking for urban security, and noise reduction superior to any double-hung. Upstate: Uw values starting at 1.1 W/m²K and reaching 0.73 W/m²K — 2–3x better than any US-made window at the price point.
At $0.22/kWh — the third highest electricity rate in the continental US — energy savings from our windows pay back the premium investment in under 8 years for a typical Upstate NY home.

Tilt & turn windows are particularly well suited to NYC urban environments. They open inward — so you never need to lean out of a high-rise window to clean them, a significant safety advantage. The airtight compression seal dramatically reduces city noise compared to double-hung windows. For brownstones and pre-war buildings, our VEKA Therm-76 in heritage colors blends beautifully with historic aesthetics.
Buffalo, Syracuse, and Rochester experience some of the harshest winters in the continental US — averaging -10°F lows and over 90 inches of snow annually. For Upstate NY, we strongly recommend the VEKA Therm-82 Passive with its 0.73 W/m²K U-value. At New York's $0.22/kWh electricity rate, the energy payback is typically under 8 years.
New York adopted IECC 2021 for residential buildings. All our VEKA and Schüco systems exceed the required maximum U-value of 1.7 W/m²K. For NYC multi-family projects subject to Local Law 97 emissions requirements, our Passive House-certified systems (Uw 0.73–0.78 W/m²K) deliver the strongest window-level contribution to emissions reduction. We provide full documentation for permit submissions.
Our European windows are a premium investment — priced comparably to high-end US brands like Marvin Elevate or Andersen A-Series, but with 2–3x better thermal performance.
