  • Patent number: 10564063
    Abstract: A system for detecting leaks in a sealed insulating glass unit (IGU) includes a pressure source, a flow path that extends between the pressure source and a distal end removably coupleable to the IGU to place the pressure source in fluid communication with an interior space of the IGU, and a pressure sensor to monitor a pressure level in the interior space. A method for testing the IGU for leaks includes applying a pressure to an interior space of the sealed IGU, monitoring the pressure in the interior space, and determining whether one or more failure conditions exists by comparing the monitored pressure to a desired pressure after a specified period of time. The IGU failure exists if the monitored pressure is less than the desired pressure (e.g.

  • Patent number: 10488837
    Abstract: A window is described, comprising a frame, a sash, a window pane mounted in the sash, a computer system, the computer system comprising a housing, the housing configured to be mounted into a receiving area of the frame, into the sash, into a window valence, or into a window casing. A processing device is located within the housing. Non-transitory memory located within the housing configured to store instructions to be executed by the processing device, a network interface, at least a first sensor fixed to the casing, frame, or window pane, the first sensor coupled to the computer system, wherein the computer system is configured to take at least a first action in response to at least a first sensor reading from the first sensor.
