A window installation includes a phase-change filler material sealing an outer edge of the window, and coupling the window to a frame around the window. The filler material in a solid state rigidly holds the window in place. When the filler material is in a liquid state it allows the window to float in its coupling to the frame. There may be supports within the rigid material that contact the window, but allow the window to expand or contract by sliding along the supports. The installation may be useful in situations where the window is subjected to thermal shocks, or other sorts of heating. The installation may be used for a sensor window, and may be part of a hypersonic vehicle.
