Energy-Efficient Windows

Energy Savings Through Window Replacement

You want a home that feels comfortable without wasting energy or driving up monthly bills. Renewal by Andersen installs energy-efficient windows designed to help reduce heating and cooling costs while keeping your home comfortable year-round. Every window is built with materials that help limit energy loss, so your home stays cozy in winter and cooler in summer with less effort. 

About Fibrex® Window Material

Fibrex® window material combines the appearance and strength of wood with the insulating performance and low upkeep homeowners want. This composite material is designed to handle temperature changes while supporting long-term energy efficiency and durability. 

The Fibrex® material used by Renewal by Andersen is made from a blend of reclaimed wood fiber and thermoplastic polymer recovered from the manufacturing process. These components are fused to create a stable composite that performs differently from traditional vinyl or wood frames. 

As temperatures shift, Fibrex® maintains its shape instead of expanding and contracting excessively. Color is infused directly into the material, helping your windows keep their appearance over time. A wide range of color and finish options allows you to match your windows to your home’s design. 

Fibrex® material supports energy efficiency through features such as: 

  • Reliable strength in changing weather conditions 
  • Protection against mold, dirt, and staining 
  • A high resistance to heat-related distortion 
  • Resistance to rot, warping, and surface damage 
  • Minimal thermal expansion 
  • Strong insulating capability 
  • High compressive strength
  • Use of environmentally responsible materials  

Advantages of Installing Fibrex® Windows

Fibrex® windows offer a wide range of advantages to elevate the comfort, style, and functionality of your home. The advantages of Fibrex® materials include:  

  • Blocks thermal transfer: Fibrex® reduces thermal transfer far more effectively than aluminum or vinyl, helping manage heating and cooling costs. 
  • Endures temperature changes: The material performs well in hot, cold, dry, and humid conditions without significant expansion or contraction. 
  • Eliminates energy leaks: Fibrex® resists cracking, corrosion, and rot, helping prevent gaps that allow energy loss.*** 
  • Uses recycled materials: Recycled materials from the manufacturing process are used to create Fibrex®, making it an environmentally conscious option. 
  • Allows for bigger windows: Strong frame construction supports slimmer profiles, making room for more glass and increased natural light. 
  • Beautifies your window: Fibrex® can be shaped into many styles and finished in a range of colors and wood-tone options. 
  • Reduces maintenance: The material is designed to resist fading, peeling, blistering, and flaking over time. 

Glass Options for Energy-Efficient Windows

Advanced glass packages help control heat and sunlight while improving comfort inside your home. Renewal by Andersen windows use low-emissive (Low-E) glass to manage energy performance. Some of the different glass options for energy-efficient windows include:  

  • High Performance™ Low-E4®: Designed to reflect heat during warmer seasons and retain warmth in cooler months, this glass delivers significantly improved efficiency compared to standard dual-pane glass.*** 
  • High Performance™ Low-E4® SmartSun™: SmartSun™ glass adds protection against ultraviolet rays while reducing heat from direct sunlight. It helps block most UV exposure that can fade furnishings and offers even greater energy efficiency.*** 

Custom Sizing on Every Window

Window performance depends heavily on fit. Every Renewal by Andersen window is custom-measured and built specifically for your home. This precise sizing helps create a tight seal that reduces drafts and supports long-term energy efficiency.
