Built for Ottawa’s climate
Two things matter here, and neither is really about the cold. Ottawa's hard water leaves mineral residue on glass faster than a soft-water city would, so a factory-applied coating that cuts that buildup is worth specifying from the start rather than fighting it with a scrub brush later. The bigger factor in this market is the housing stock itself. A century-old bathroom in the Glebe or Westboro has usually settled out of square in ways a modern stud wall never does, and a stock enclosure built for a perfectly square opening simply will not fit that wall cleanly.

Why it suits Ottawa
Most of what we quote here is a non-standard cut, a neo-angle corner, a barn-style opening, an alcove a stock kit will not fit, especially in an older renovation. Factory-direct sourcing means that custom cut is a spec line, not a redesign fee. Send the alcove dimensions and glass finish through /brief and the quote comes back sized to that exact opening.
