The Renewal by Andersen® Experience: Revolutionary Fibrex®

The advancement of technology has paved the way for window experts to provide homeowners with more and better options, including wood composite casement windows in West Chester Ohio. But with all these options, how do you know which window to choose? A window’s performance generally depends on the quality of installation and the materials used to make it. This is why it’s very important to check the materials used if you’re in the market for replacement windows.

A window is essentially composed of two items: frame and glass. To guide you in your selection, let’s focus on the former. Here’s some information about common window framing materials:

• Wood: Desired for its beauty, wood is a delicate, high-end material that can add timelessness to a home.

• Vinyl: One of the most used types of framing materials, vinyl is low-maintenance and UV-resistant. It also has good insulating properties.

• Aluminum: Timeless and easy to maintain, aluminum is less expensive than other materials.

• Fiberglass: An alternative to wood, fiberglass significantly enhances the aesthetics of a home.

 Another framing material used in the development of replacement windows is Renewal by Andersen®’s exclusive framing material, Fibrex®. It is a revolutionary wood composite that is twice as strong as vinyl and can withstand any weather condition. It won’t chip, rot, or warp.

Here are the benefits of windows made with Fibrex frames:

• Low Maintenance. One of the best things about Fibrex is its ease of maintenance. It does not rot and does not require repainting, helping homeowners save time and money.

• Fibrex is not only durable. It is also sustainable as 40% of it is made from clean reclaimed wood fiber.

• Because Fibrex is made from real wood fiber, it is sturdy. Its exceptional strength allows it to have more glass and less frame, giving homeowners a bigger and better view. Further, it expands and contracts very little, so you won’t have to worry about bowing, cracks, and air or water leaks.

• Energy Efficiency. Fibrex has excellent insulating properties, 700 times better than that of aluminum. Combined with High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass, your home stays cooler during summer and warmer during winter. This translates to increased comfort and savings.

• Aesthetic Appeal. Fibrex does not fall short on aesthetics because it can be made to mimic the look of wood, vinyl, and others. So it can definitely add architectural beauty to your home.

• Renewal by Andersen backs its top-quality frame, glass, and installation with one of the best warranties in the industry.
