Go green....
A focus on the environment...
At Window and Door Specialists, we share your
goal of an energy efficient home with features
that enhance your lifestyle and add value.
There are two programs to help builders and
homeowners make informed decisions. The US
Green Building Council has "Leadership in
Energy and Environmental Design" or LEED
standards and the Energy Star program is
sponsored by the federal government. Several
of our suppliers offer products that meet LEED
or Energy Star guidelines. We seek out
suppliers that use green manufacturing
practices.... Hurd windows feature "Warm
Edge" technology. We offer Economic Stimulus
qualifying packages from Atrium Window and
Door.
