When it comes to beautiful windows, nothing beats the look and feel of real wood.  But with all the good (and not so good) options for wood windows out there, what makes Andersen windows special?  Here are four reasons why Andersen windows should be your top choice when shopping for wood windows.

Energy Efficiency

Andersen windows come standard with energy-efficiency in mind.  They offer a variety of low-e glass options to help you control heating and cooling costs in any climate.  This includes the SmartSun™glass that filters out 95% of harmful UV rays.

Andersen windows are also tested to ensure maximum thermal insulation, and are tested by the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC).  Most windows meet or exceed minimum EnergyStar qualifications!

Durability

The exclusive Andersen Perma-Shield® system gives the windows a tough, protective shell that safeguards the wood inside.  It repels water, resists dents, and stays beautiful for many years.

The Perma-Shield® exteriors won’t peel, blister, flake or corrode, so they are virtually maintenance free.  So there’s no exposed wood on the outside of your home that needs repainted every few years.

Reliability

The warranty on Andersen windows is industry leading—20 years on glass, and 10 years on non-glass parts.  The warranty is transferrable and not prorated, so coverage offers full benefits, year after year, owner after owner.

The Perma-Shield™ exterior not only gives your durability, it also comes in seven popular colors.  Interior options are endless, as the windows can be painted or stained to match any style.  Andersen windows can come in all different sizes, including arched and geometric shapes.  Grids and grilles are offered in but full divided lite, simulated divided lite, and internal patterns and are fully customizable.  Finally, the numerous hardware options on Andersen windows gives you the ability to design your windows to your needs.
