Renewal by Andersen and its parent company, Andersen Corporation, seek to be responsible citizens. Our commitment to sustainability is manifested in several ways. We know that home construction generates a lot of waste so we make a commitment to recycling, minimizing waste, producing long-lasting products, and other practices.

We help by:

  • Manufacturing responsibly

Our Fibrex® material frames includes wood fibers made of at least 40% reclaimed wood fibers sourced from Andersen’s woodworking facilities. Our High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass also contains at least 12% recycled glass by weight.

  • Being sustainable

Our replacement windows have longer than average lifespans and are supported by our Transferable Limited Warranties. These products help slow down the rate that landfills get filled.

  • Reducing our carbon footprints

Our energy-efficient replacement windows can help reduce energy usage, thus reducing your home’s carbon footprint.

  • Working with environmental partners

We are partners with the National Fenestration Rating Council® (NFRC); ENERGY STAR® ; the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency; and Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. And did you know, we’re the first window manufacturer to receive the Green Seal Certification for Environmental Stewardship.

In addition to these benefits, often energy-efficient upgrades to a house are eligible for tax credits. Not only are our products environmentally friendly, but they also protect our customers’ wallets. As one of the area’s most trusted window providers and installers, Renewal by Andersen of Alaska works hard to make sure your window upgrade is of the highest quality.

Home interior with custom windows

Smart Energy Use

We recognize the fact that heating and cooling account for close to half of an average U.S. household’s energy use. Apart from it being a significant expense, excessive gas and electricity consumption contributes to climate change. As a company, we do our part to preserve the plant by promoting smart energy use through our replacement windows. We aim to make homes as energy-efficient as possible by manufacturing and installing windows with high energy performance ratings.

Sustainable Materials

Our replacement windows reduce environmental impact. That’s because the primary components of each unit—the Fibrex® composite material and the High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass—uses repurposed materials. The former, in fact, is a combination of polymers and reclaimed wood.

Indoor Air Quality

Our replacement windows are responsibly manufactured so your indoor living spaces get much-needed ventilation without the threat of polluting the indoor air. Our products have passed the strictest indoor air emission standards in the country.

Long-Lasting Products

When you install Renewal by Andersen windows, you can be sure that they will last longer. With this, you are doing a crucial role in limiting construction waste in landfills. To put that into perspective, a homeowner removes windows with a lifespan of at least 10 years.

Renewals and Preservations

One of the many reasons to replace your old windows with new, energy-efficient ones is to boost the overall value of your home and enhance the livability of the neighborhood. If you have an older home and you want to go for historic accuracy or preserve its charm, this home improvement project is worth considering.

The right window replacement can go a long way in helping the environment. Get in touch with our window installers today to get started with your project. Give us a call or fill out our contact form to schedule a consultation. We serve homeowners in and around Anchorage, AK.
