Our Environmental Milestones, Part 1: Sustainable Factors

Year after year, we hear of rising concerns regarding the environment. This is why many home improvement manufacturers and contractors across the country are continuously looking for ways to provide sustainable products. This commitment to sustainability pushes Andersen® Corporation to lead the way to making American homes greener.

Environmental Milestones

As the leading provider of quality patio doors and replacement windows in Connecticut, Renewal by Andersen® of Westchester and Fairfield shares the same values as our parent company. We are among the top contractors who take steps to tackle today’s environmental challenges. Here’s what makes our products the most sustainable ones you can choose for your home:

Innovative Frame Material

Homeowners have traditionally used vinyl and aluminum as materials for their window frames. While they are certainly great options, they present a few drawbacks over time. Vinyl, for one, expands and contracts easily while aluminum allows heat to leak out of homes. To solve these problems, Andersen invented a material that provides better and longer lasting protection for homes: Fibrex®. Made of real wood fiber and a special polymer foundation, Fibrex offers enhanced durability and insulation. In addition, it combines the strength of real wood and the low maintenance properties of vinyl.

Energy-Efficient Glass

Our patio doors and replacement windows in CT, come with a standard High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass. With high-class spacers, Argon gas blend, and double glazing, they can protect your home from excessive energy loss. In fact, they are 45% and 56% more energy-efficient in winter and summer, respectively, compared with ordinary dual panes. For more efficient window glass options, you can upgrade to our High-Performance Low-E4 Sun and High-Performance Low-E4® SmartSun™.

Professional Installation

Even the best windows and doors won’t function well if they were poorly installed. Professional installers like us can ensure that each gap is sealed, preventing drafts and energy loss over time. We also back our products with strong warranties to add an extra layer of protection for your home. With us, you can be confident that we’ll take care of your project from start to finish.
