Offering Homeowners Ability to Save Energy by Blocking Sun's Heat While Letting in Natural Daylight

Renewal by Andersen, the start-to-finish window replacement subsidiary of Andersen Corporation, has expanded its available glass options with a new glass that helps block the sun's heat, while letting in almost as much natural daylight as clear glass.

The optional High-Performance™ Low-E4® SmartSun™ glass is Renewal by Andersen's most energy-efficient glass offering ever, up to 70% more energy efficient in summer and up to 45% more energy efficient in winter as compared to ordinary dual pane glass*. What's more, SmartSun glass also blocks an amazing 95 percent of harmful UV rays, helping to protect furniture, carpets and wall coverings.

"Amid rising concern for our environment and the high costs of fuel, energy efficiency is at the forefront of everyone's mind," explained Jim Conway, marketing director at Renewal by Andersen. "SmartSun glass offers homeowners the ability to save energy by blocking the sun's heat while letting in the natural daylight."

SmartSun glass complements a wide selection of available glass offerings from Renewal by Andersen replacement windows including High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass, High-Performance™ Low-E4® Sun glass, High-Performance patterned glass and tempered glass.
