Woodbury Replacement Windows

The climate in Woodbury, Minnesota requires the most energy efficient replacement windows that are available. That replacement window is no longer up for debate. There is one window on the replacement window market that is head and shoulders above the rest. That window is made by Preservation Windows.

The Preservation Replacement Window Dealer of Distinction for Woodbury is Northland Home Exteriors of Oakdale and Forest Lake, MN. Northland's owners have been in the business for over twenty years and have long been recognized as one of the top replacement window installers in the entire state of Minnesota. Northland also serves the rest of the TwinCities area for the full Preservation Collection, which includes their full siding line.

Preservation replacement windows are head and shoulders above the rest in many ways. The most important way is energy efficiency. The National Fenestration Rating Council independently tests replacement windows in five categories. The most important for the Minnesota climate is U-factor, the measure of heat loss. You'll find Preservation Windows at the top of their ranking for U-factor.

Another bit of independent evidence you can look at is the proposed Energy Star Window Standard for 2015. Preservation replacement windows already meet the standard for six years from now! The "Big Three" window manufacturers, including Andersen, Renewal by Andersen, Marvin, and Pella barely meet the 2009 standard and don't meet the proposed 2012 Energy Star Standard at all.

Preservation Windows are the replacement window of choice when taking advantage of the Washington County Owner-Occupied Home Imporvement Loan Program.
