A complete thermal enclosure system is a feature all energy-efficient homes share. It’s achievable when you have tightly sealed openings, adequate levels of insulation, and high-performance windows.
At Renewal by Andersen of San Francisco, our custom products are key to having a complete thermal enclosure system. Here’s why our replacement windows can help your home become ENERGY STAR®-certified:
Fibrex®
This is our patented, composite material used for manufacturing frames, sashes, and grilles. Developed in the ‘70s and perfected in the early ‘90s, Fibrex has proven to be the superior substitute to traditional wood and premium vinyl. Made from reclaimed wood fibers and thermoplastic polymers, it has outperformed practically all of its counterparts in many areas.
Fibrex contracts and expands significantly less than vinyl and 200% as rigid and stable, letting it stay weathertight for the years to come. Unlike untreated pine that’s susceptible to rot, our exclusive material is absolutely decay-resistant. It’s on par with the industry’s exceptional insulators too, conducting energy almost 700 times less than aluminum.
Advanced Glazing
Our replacement windows have excellent energy performance ratings, meeting the energy efficiency criteria in all climates. It features a spectrally selective, multi-layer Low-E coating to block the sun’s unwelcome rays while trapping wanted, indoor heat. Reinforced by an argon gas blend and a stainless steel spacer, our innovative glass solutions make summers and winters naturally cooler and warmer, respectively.
To put things into perspective, our SmartSun™ glass, our top-rated option, reflects 72% of the sun’s heat-causing infrared and 95% damaging ultraviolet radiation. At the same time, it allows 65% of natural light through without affecting its color or clarity.
Flawless Installation
Our products are the best because they’re as good as our Certified Master Installers. To make the process of windows replacement as frictionless as possible, we train every single member of our crew. We develop our own certification program to prepare them for every imaginable structural challenge.
As a result, our Certified Master Installers guarantee faultless work. We remove old and install new units safely and efficiently as well as seal the tiniest gaps around the frame. To protect you against workmanship errors, we provide a 5-year warranty for our original installation.
