Fibrex® Windows: Enhancing Your Home’s Energy Efficiency

If you’ve noticed an uptick in your recent energy bills, it’s possible that your windows are no longer performing the functions that they should, including rejecting heat transfer during extreme weather conditions. Now that winter’s here, you can’t just rely on your heating to keep your indoors comfortable. You need to have replacement windows that can provide you with long-lasting durability and better energy efficiency all year round.

Renewal by Andersen® of Central Pennsylvania, your local window company, offers a variety of window styles with our revolutionary Fibrex framing material. Learn more about them here:

Innovation in Window Technology

An exclusive material from Renewal by Andersen®, Fibrex combines the strength of wood and the low-maintenance qualities of vinyl. It’s composed of 40% reclaimed wood fibers by weight and 60% proprietary polymer. The result of the combination of these two materials is composite framing engineered to be twice as strong and durable as vinyl.

Making a Difference for Your Home

When you purchase windows from Renewal by Andersen of Central Pennsylvania, you can expect the Fibrex framing material to make a difference for your home, especially when it comes to energy efficiency. The incorporation of the wood fiber into the polymer during manufacturing results in a material that’s stable and rigid, which helps windows repel moisture and resist expansion and contraction during temperature fluctuations. Even during harsh weather conditions, your windows won’t suffer further damage.

Fibrex windows are also double-glazed, making use of low-E glass with spectrally selective coatings. Our glass options help block both ultraviolet (UV) and infrared rays, both of which can make it uncomfortable indoors and cause your furniture and other belongings to fade,

Fibrex windows are the perfect choice if you’re looking to improve your home’s energy efficiency. Start by checking your existing windows for any signs of damage, which will help you determine whether a replacement is in order. For this, turn to Renewal by Andersen of Central Pennsylvania.
