There are few home improvement products that promise to make the planet healthier, and even fewer that can deliver on that promise. Renewal by Andersen® replacement windows belong to the latter, and the best part is, it can help you save money while doing so. In this video blog, Renewal by Andersen of Kansas City shares a closer look at how our products deliver on that promise.
Energy Efficiency
Renewal by Andersen replacement windows are one of the most energy-efficient replacement windows on the planet, with each unit bearing certification from ENERGY STAR®. Energy-efficient windows help the environment by helping you save on your energy costs. The combination of our High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass and Fibrex® material frames helps prevent thermal transfer. This results in consistent indoor temperatures that keep your home warm in the winter, and cool in the summer. It reduces your indoor heating and cooling requirements, which results in energy savings, and reduced dependence on fossil-based fuel—the kind that’s still being used to generate electricity on the grid.
Long Product Life Cycles
Remodeling projects such as roof and window replacement generate a lot of waste material, which is a major source of landfill waste across the country. We’ve often had to replace windows that are less than 10 years old, which is half the expected life span of an entry-level asphalt shingle roof. Renewal by Andersen replacement windows last much longer than 10 years, and are backed by the strongest warranties in the business. The longer time it takes between window replacements, the slower landfills get filled. Also, you’ll end up spending less in the long run.
Responsible Manufacturing
Our replacement windows are certified by the Scientific Certification Systems (SCS) for the highest recycled content across all window replacement products. Our Fibrex material frames and sashes contain up to 40% reclaimed wood fiber by weight. We collect the wood trimmings from the woodworking facilities of our parent company, Andersen Corporation. These wood trimmings are pulped, dried and bonded with polymer to create a strong, durable and low-maintenance material. Our High-Performance, Low-E4 glass packages likewise contain up to 12% reclaimed glass by weight.
