Replacing older windows with energy-efficient ones will also help reduce utility bills – but the benefits go much further. Energy-efficient windows make your home more comfortable, as their performance determines how much heat comes in and escapes out through the windows.

Certification programs administered by the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) and ENERGY STAR provide ratings designed to indicate the efficiency of a window or door. Various performance ratings — like U-factor and Solar Heat Gain Coefficient — measure a product’s effectiveness in insulating and blocking heat from the sun. Our employees are trained to know and perform according to those standards.

As you can see, here at Goldfinch Brothers, Inc. we bring full assurance of our products and procedures to your home. Our long history of glass and glazing here in the Northwest (five generations of ownership and daily hands-on management) comes with both time proven customer service and the latest technology available.
