Polaris Windows Prices | ValuSmart Series
The ValuSmart is their entry level vinyl window that is a stripped down version of the ThermalWeld with nice clean lines and an optional tilt in sash option. The frame wall thickness is .070, which is a nice middle of the road thickness that lacks multiple chambers. Expect performance numbers as follows for a double hung with a low-e glass option .33 U-value and .06 AI. While not the best entry level window on the market, it’s not a bad option for budget shoppers.

Target Price – $550 to $700 installed
Polaris ThermalWeld Window
The ThermalWeld is the company’s mid range vinyl window and generally considered a good vinyl window for the price. Definitely a step down in terms of strength and durability to the UltraWeld. The ThermalWeld is essentially identical to the ValuSmart, with some nice upgrades including a better sash reinforcement and glass package. These will reduce the U-factor to .29, AI to .04 and the SHGC to .28.

Polaris UltraWeld Window
The UltraWeld is their high end vinyl window and often gets thrown in the conversation as one of the top rated vinyl window options out there. The window itself is superior to the THermalWeld in its design and construction with stronger extrusion walls and multichambers in the wall. The window has an upgraded stainless steel spacer and glass pane fills that will deliver impressive numbers – .28 U-value and .03 AI. The window also offers an option interior composite wood veneer that does a good job resembling real wood species.
