Maintenance Free Windows, an Atlanta Window Replacement Company, Participating in Department of Energy Volume Purchase Plan

    ATLANTA, GA, July 14, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Maintenance Free Windows, a leading provider of Atlanta replacement windows, announces that they will be a qualifying vendor for the U.S. Department of Energy's newly launched Highly-Insulating R-5 Windows Volume Purchase Program. This program will help both residential and commercial clients save money on highly efficient Atlanta windows.

The Department of Energy's Volume Purchase Plan is part of a multi-year strategy to transform the market for high-efficiency R-5 windows and low-e storm windows. The program is designed to promote windows with an overall R-Value of 5.

A window's R-Value measures its resistance to heat flow - the higher the R-Value, the more efficient the window. Common ENERGY STAR certified windows have an R-Value of 3. By increasing the R-Value from 3 to 5, average heat loss through the window is reduced by 40%. This also reduces the amount of heating and cooling required, saving the homeowner money on energy bills.

Although there are many environmental and economic benefits to using R-5 windows, their cost has been a barrier to widespread use. The Department of Energy is working with the industry and potential buyers to reduce prices for bulk purchases and make these energy-efficient products more available.

Atlanta window replacement company Maintenance Free Windows is proud to offer vinyl Atlanta replacement windows which qualify for the Department of Energy's R-5 Volume purchase plan. Vinyl replacement Atlanta windows purchased through Maintenance Free Windows which will qualify for this program include the Seal Smart Triad 7 and Seal Smart Extreme glass packages.

"I'm very pleased that we are going to be able to bring high-efficiency Atlanta windows to more people through this program," states Maintenance Free Windows General Manager Greg Cassidy. "With the green movement and the recession, people are always looking for ways to save energy and save money, and the Department of Energy's Volume Purchase Program is going to help with both."

The Department of Energy's R-5 Windows Volume Purchase Program is scheduled to continue through mid-2011. For more information on purchasing high-efficiency Atlanta replacement windows through this program, contact Atlanta window replacement company Maintenance Free Windows.
