Aluminum vs UPVC: The Installer’s Perspective featuring Jason Glatt & Spencer Culhane

In this episode of All Things Façades podcast, Jason and Spencer take a deep dive into one of the most debated topics in the industry — aluminum versus UPVC windows. From structural performance to installation challenges, they share first-hand insights from years in the field and explore how each material stacks up across different project types and regions.

They break down what installers really think about aluminum’s long-standing dominance, UPVC’s rapid rise in energy-efficient applications, and the practical realities that influence every window selection — from code requirements and hardware to cost, aesthetics, and field conditions.

Whether you’re a façade engineer, architect, or installer, this conversation sheds light on how material innovation, market trends, and real-world experience continue to shape the future of window systems.
