RESIDENTIAL WINDOWS, DOORS & SKYLIGHTS

For Partners


WHY ENERGY STAR?

Thanks to advances in technology, today's ENERGY STAR certified windows, doors,
and skylights offer greater savings than ever before. Just look for the ENERGY
STAR label.


SAVE ENERGY AND MONEY.

Replacing old windows with ENERGY STAR certified windows lowers household energy
bills by an average of 12 percent nationwide. Lower energy consumption also
reduces greenhouse gas emissions from power plants and homes.

BUYING GUIDANCE


WHAT SHOULD I LOOK FOR WHEN BUYING WINDOWS, DOORS & SKYLIGHTS?

Every ENERGY STAR window, door and skylight is independently certified and
verified to perform at levels that meet or exceed energy efficiency
guidelines set by the U.S. EPA. But how do you know which windows work in your
climate? The following tips will help you buy with confidence.


PURCHASING TIPS

Shopping for new windows, doors, and skylights can be a confusing process.
ENERGY STAR makes it simple! Follow these five tips to ensure your windows,
doors, and skylights deliver savings and comfort you'll enjoy.

 * Determine your ENERGY STAR Climate Zone.
 * Find a retailer of ENERGY STAR certified windows, doors, or skylights.

 * Look for the ENERGY STAR label for your climate zone. All ENERGY STAR
   certified products must display the ENERGY STAR label. Check the label to
   make sure the product you are considering is certified to meet the criteria
   for your area. The ENERGY STAR label appears on the product next to the
   National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) label:
    
   
   
   ENERGY STAR QUALIFIED
   IN HIGHLIGHTED REGIONS
   
   Official ENERGY STAR label (and NFRC Label) for a window qualifying in the
   Northern and North-Central climate zones.
   
   
   ENERGY STAR QUALIFIED
   IN ALL 50 STATES

 * Ask for ENERGY STAR when ordering. When you're ordering in a showroom, make
   sure to ask for a product that is certified to meet the ENERGY STAR criteria
   for your climate zone. You can choose ENERGY STAR certified windows in a
   variety of framing materials to suit your needs.

 * Get a deal. In addition to the long-term energy savings you'll enjoy, you may
   be able to take advantage of financial incentives that lower your initial
   investment:
   * Many utilities provide financial incentives for purchasing ENERGY STAR
     certified windows, doors and skylights. Look for local rebates and other
     promotions in your area.
   * Claim federal tax credits for installing ENERGY STAR certified windows,
     doors or skylights or making certain other energy efficiency
     improvements to your home.
   * Keep in mind that the cost of complete window replacement can vary.  Be
     sure to get quotes from several installers.  Different dealers may quote
     difference prices for the same product. When interviewing contractors, ask
     them to break down the price quote by labor and materials. ENERGY STAR
     certified windows, doors and skylights may cost more than non-certified
     products, but the labor involved should be comparable for both.
   * If your house is older than 1978, be sure to look for contractors who are
     certified to handle lead paint.
