Aeris is ProVia's wood-clad vinyl window: a patented system connects a prefinished solid Oak, Cherry or Maple interior to a welded vinyl frame, so you get a real wood interior and a no-paint exterior in one unit. The wood uses a cove design that takes stain and paint without cracking, and because it floats on the vinyl it can be replaced later if you change your mind on the stain. Interiors come in 16 stain colors or 16 paint colors.
The frame is 3 1/4 inches deep with welded frame and sash construction in a proprietary European vinyl compound, and ProVia fills certain extrusion cavities with Neopor® insulation. Glass is a 1-inch ComforTech™ DLA-UV insulated unit, which ProVia states meets ENERGY STAR criteria in all climate zones.
Aeris is ProVia's answer for homeowners matching stained interior woodwork without stepping up to clad-wood windows from the luxury brands, and it comes with matching sliding patio doors.

Ratings
ProVia states the standard 1-inch ComforTech DLA-UV glass meets ENERGY STAR® criteria for all climate zones. ProVia publishes unit U-factors on the NFRC label and in the Aeris literature.
What the install adds
On install day we set the unit on a sloped sill pan, tape the flanges or brickmould to the housewrap with flashing tape, fill the rough-opening gap with low-expansion foam, and seal the interior with backer rod and sealant before trim goes on. The exterior joint gets backer rod and sealant too, so the rating on the label is what the wall actually gets.
