Spectre Window 76 Series Glass Louver Window with Frosted Blades
Reviewed pricing, lead time, freight, and final configuration are confirmed during quote review before order release.
Blades ride in an extruded aluminum frame and tilt together from center stile lever operators; the factory states the system provides constant ventilation and can be rainproof at the same time, since partly opened blades shed water outward while passing air. Frosted blades give built in privacy with soft daylight, and clear glass is quoted on request. The factory builds single bay and two bay frames. This is a platform product: no profile dimensions or size run are printed for the series, so frame details and dimensions are engineered per opening and confirmed during quote review. Every unit is finished in one of eight standard colors.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a jalousie window?
A window made of parallel glass slats that tilt open and shut in unison, also called a louvre window. This series is the aluminum framed version with frosted blades.
Does it really keep rain out while open?
The factory states the system provides constant ventilation and can be rainproof at the same time: partly opened blades angle outward, shedding water while air passes between them. Driving storms still warrant closing the blades.
Can I get clear glass instead of frosted?
The factory photographs frosted blades on this series, and clear glass is quoted on request during quote review.
Is this an energy efficient window?
No. Louver windows trade sealed performance for airflow. Use it where ventilation is the point, and use the thermally broken casement or slider series for conditioned envelopes.
