Like windows, your exterior doors contribute to your home’s overall energy efficiency. They have different components that work together to keep your home comfortable in any season. Patio doors in Marietta, GA, from Renewal by Andersen® have these components:
According to ENERGY STAR®, doors can provide more insulation than windows because they have lower glass-to-frame ratios. Nevertheless, you still need to look for dual-paned glass to ensure energy savings all year long.
At Renewal by Andersen, our patio doors come with our most energy-efficient glass package available. High-Performance™ Low-E4® SmartSun™ glass offers up to 47% efficiency during winter and as much as 70% efficiency during summer. This makes it an ideal choice for homes in hot climates. It can also resist furniture fading because it can block up to 95% of UV rays.
Proper weatherstripping and a tight seal around the frame ensure that there are no air leaks. At Renewal by Andersen, our sliding and French doors in Atlanta come with durable locks that pull the door tightly onto the jamb. For hinged doors, we have a five-point locking system and an optional handle extension kit. Our gliding doors, on the other hand, have a reach-out locking system and optional foot lock. We also apply continuous weatherstripping and interlocking features for better energy efficiency.
Materials matter when it comes to a door’s durability, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal. Our patio doors, for example, come with high-quality wood with high thermal performance ratings. They also have exterior cladding that protects from different weather conditions. This way, you don’t have to worry about painting or maintenance issues.
These components work together to create an energy-efficient home. Renewal by Andersen is your leading source for hinged and sliding patio doors in Atlanta areas. Together with our windows, you can ensure energy savings and comfort for years.
