Renewal by Andersen® Leads the Charge for Environment and Energy Efficiency
Cottage Grove, MN, September 19, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Renewal by Andersen® is honored to announce that it is the only window replacement company in the greater Denver and Colorado Springs areas – including Aurora, Arvada, and Broomfield, Colorado (CO) – to be ENERGY STAR® qualified and Green Seal certified. This furthers Renewal by Andersen’s® long-standing commitment to leading the way in environmental care and has been manufacturing energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly replacement windows and doors for years. That commitment is proven by partnerships with organizations like ENERGY STAR®, which helps consumers choose environmentally friendly products.
Green Seal Certified Replacement Windows from Renewal by Andersen®
Andersen Windows, Inc., is the only manufacturer of commercial and residential replacement windows in Colorado to earn Green Seal Certification, including complete certification of all Renewal by Andersen® replacement windows. Green Seal, a national non-profit organization that helps consumers find environmentally-responsible products, has certified Renewal by Andersen® replacement windows and doors in the following areas:
• No heavy metals in the sash or frame materials
• Energy efficiency
• Consumer education materials for proper use and installation
• Clearly labeled performance data
• Packaging with at least 25 percent post-consumer material
Renewal by Andersen® president Craig Evanich explained the process of certification by saying, “To earn certification, we demonstrated that our products meet energy efficiency requirements and are manufactured and packaged in an environmentally conscious manner.”
Green Seal estimates that if every window in the United States was as energy efficient and eco-friendly as windows and screens manufactured by Andersen®, Americans – like those in the greater Denver and Colorado Springs areas – would save up to 2.5 percent of the nation’s annual energy consumption. That’s roughly 200 gallons of oil for every household.
ENERGY STAR® Qualified Replacement Windows from Renewal by Andersen®
Renewal by Andersen® replacement windows also meet the performance criteria set by ENERGY STAR® for all climate regions of the United States – especially the greater Denver area of Colorado, which can see large temperature swings throughout the year. Every replacement window manufactured by Renewal by Andersen® uses High-Performance® Low-E4™ glass, a “green” glass for windows, which is 41 percent more energy efficient in summer and 56 percent more energy efficient in winter than standard dual-pane windows.
ENERGY STAR® is a voluntary labeling partnership of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Energy (DOE). Products with an ENERGY STAR® label, such as Andersen replacement windows and doors, help consumers save money on energy bills and protect the environment. ENERGY STAR® qualified windows and doors are 40 percent more energy efficient than materials required by most building codes, according to the DOE. In addition, using ENERGY STAR windows and doors can cut energy bills by as much as 15 percent.
To receive ENERGY STAR® qualification, all Renewal by Andersen® replacement windows and doors sport the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) label. Renewal by Andersen® was the first replacement window manufacturer to certify its products – such as double-hung windows, accent windows, vinyl windows, and custom windows – on a national scale. NFRC is a non-profit, independent organization that tests and rates windows, doors, and skylights so homeowners can easily compare energy efficiency.
Renewal by Andersen® continues to further its commitment to the environment and energy efficiency in the development of future products by continuously improving material use and reuse, emissions, waste management, and recycling.
