Renewal by Andersen® Windows: Energy Efficiency Explained

We all want energy-efficient windows for our homes. These lessen our monthly electric bills by reducing energy consumption. For a window to be energy-efficient, it shouldn’t rely on only one component. At Renewal by Andersen® of Knoxville, we believe that a window’s performance depends on three things: glass, frame, and installation.
