Ways Your New Windows Help You Go Green

As homeowners continue to seek sustainable solutions for their homes, a variety of options have emerged. This includes replacing your old windows. Experts say having them upgraded makes your home not only eco-friendly, but also energy-efficient. Here’s why:

Ways Your New Windows Help You Go Green

New Windows Need Less Maintenance

Maintaining your old windows may require the application of a new paint or coating job that, when spilled on the ground, could contribute to ground pollution. Rest assured, modern windows are fairly low maintenance and need nothing beyond clean warm water to keep them dirt-free.

New Windows Have Fewer Concerns

It can be noted how old windows tend to have poor insulation, which puts more strain on the HVAC system. This practice increases your home’s electric consumption. On the other hand, new windows are designed for better insulation, helping reduce your home’s environmental impact.

New Windows Have Effective Features

Aside from having fewer issues, newer windows also have significant features geared towards going green. Newer frames like Fibrex® are designed with low-emissivity (low-E) glass that reduces the amount of heat coming from the outside, helping your HVAC systems not work double. This means upgrading to windows with multiple panes and protective coatings is a huge step up from old, rusty units.

New Windows Minimize Waste

Many homeowners may not be aware of it, but a huge portion of today’s custom windows is made of recycled material. This means new windows no longer use as many raw materials as before, reducing the amount of waste that simply ends up in landfills.

"Very pleased with installation of six windows and a ProVia entry door. I love the look of the windows and door. I am pleased that my wife is thrilled with the look of the door. She is very pleased that the bronze color fits in well with the color of the brick."

"I just had my Renewal by Andersen windows installed and couldn’t be happier, the entire process went very smoothly. The windows are high quality and look great. But the installers Roy, Zack and Jordan were the stars, they introduced themselves upon arrival walked me thru everything they were going to do and when they finished took me to each window to make sure I was completely satisfied. They were clean and courteous and I would definitely recommend and have them work in my home again."

"Wonderful experience with knowledgeable, competent employees. We had Andersen windows in a previous house & didn’t even consider anything else this time. After replacing our patio door almost two years ago, we replaced all our windows this year. What a difference over builder-grade windows, especially in the really cold temperatures we’ve had this year. Andersen windows may be a little more expensive than other brands, but they are top quality."
