Energy Star Certification and What’s in it For You
With that in mind, the Andersen Corporation, together with Renewal by Andersen, is proud to say that our windows and doors are certified Energy Star products. What does Energy Star certification have to do with us, you might ask?
Energy Star is a voluntary Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) program that aims to improve energy efficiency and help home and business owners choose energy saving (as well as money saving) products in the market. And ever since the program started in 1998, the Andersen Corporation has been at the forefront of supporting this noble undertaking. For more about our partnership with EPA and Energy Star, just watch this video.
What Makes our Products Energy Star Certified?
As mentioned earlier, Renewal by Andersen, top company for home improvement in Kansas City, works hand in hand with the Andersen Corporation. Our parent company’s years of experience in manufacturing high-quality windows has helped them come up with materials that have been the benchmarks for today’s energy-efficient windows and doors. Here are our product’s components:
• Frames
Featuring our Fibrex® framing material, our innovative frames are made from highly sustainable materials, which are mostly reclaimed from the Andersen manufacturing process. Our frames contain sixty percent thermoplastic polymer and forty percent wood fiber, making them tougher than vinyl and ensuring weathertight seals for a long time. And with its excellent insulating properties, Fibrex is 700 times better than aluminum at reducing heating and cooling bills.
• Low-E4 Glass
A new advancement in window technology, Low-E stands for low emissivity. The glass’ special coating enhances the material’s thermal properties. Consequently, it absorbs thermal energy, offers protection against UV and IR rays, and prevents temperature fluctuations in your home. This will keep your energy bills low.
