As industry leaders, our company has a significant part to play in protecting our environment. Studies show that the average home is responsible for more carbon emissions than the average automobile. It also consumes more energy. To help make homes more environmentally friendly, Renewal by Andersen® participates in many third party certification programs. This ensures that our windows and doors are part of the solution.

NFRC
The National Fenestration Rating Council or NFRC is a nonprofit organization that ensures accurate and credible window performance rating and labeling. They help homeowners find the most energy-efficient Kansas City doors and windows in the market. We are proud to say that our products meet all NFRC requirements for energy efficiency. Thanks to our insulating glass, you can save up to 25% on your energy bills.
ENERGY STAR
Earning an NFRC certification is a requirement of the ENERGY STAR® program. It also independently tests, studies, and certifies products to make sure that they are energy-efficient. Since 1992, the ENERGY STAR brand has boosted the adoption of energy-efficient products, services, and practices.
We’re happy to state that our parent company has been with the program since the beginning. In fact, Andersen was the first window manufacturer that won ENERGY STAR National Window Partner of the Year in 1999.
SCS
The Scientific Certification Systems (SCS) Indoor Advantage Gold™ certification is the strictest indoor air emissions standard in the US. Nonetheless, our windows meet their requirements. Poor indoor air quality is one of the top five health hazards in the country. Some building materials cause poor indoor air quality by releasing toxins in the air. You won’t have to worry about that with our products. Our windows are safe and effective, which is why we’re the leader in home improvement in Kansas City.
We are committed to protecting our environment and the best way we can do that is by improving your quality of life. Our windows aren’t just eco-friendly, as these are also beautiful, durable, and energy-efficient. Our windows will make your home look more appealing, and save you money on your utility bills.
