14-06-2012 15:07 | 1-877-664-6288 Basement windows are often overlooked in window replacement projects. Yet, in a typical home, the basement windows are the main source of energy waste among all other windows in the house. The heated air in the house tends to rise and escape through openings on the upper levels of a building. As a result, low pressure is created on the lower levels causing unconditioned outside air to be sucked in through openings in the lower levels. Typical metal frame window inserts, after a few years, become loose, rusty and leaky - not to mention very unsightly. They also tend to have single pane glass, which allows heat transfer to and from the outside. Mike Rusk joins Larry Janesky at the Dr. Energy Saver's Energy City -- a 40000 sq.ft energy conservation training facility located in Seymour, Connecticut -- to show us the differences between a conventional basement window, and an energy efficient one. Among many desirable features, an energy efficient basement window has a sturdy, waterproof vinyl frame that can be easily fitted into an existing enclosure, sealed air tight to prevent air leakages, and not rust when it comes in contact with water. Double pane windows will slow heat transfer through the glass, and the low-E glass tint will allow light in, but filter out the heat. Dr. Energy Saver energy conservation experts in Cleveland, Ohio replace windows of all types, but would like to warn homeowners while many other contractors ...

PORTLAND, OR--(Marketwire -06/12/12)- Indow Windows, an award-winning thermal window insert manufacturer, today announced that it has closed a $1.3 million Series A investment round to fund sales, marketing, and operations as part of a national expansion. The round was led by Vision Ridge Partners, a Boulder, Colorado clean tech-focused venture capital firm, with members of the Northwest Energy Angels (NWEA) investing a total of $225,000 to close out the oversubscribed round.
"This Series A investment round will allow Indow Windows to expand into strategic markets across the United States," said Indow Windows Founder and CEO Sam Pardue. "With existing manufacturing capacity and a custom IT system that allows dealers to measure windows with precision and submit and track orders seamlessly, we are ready to drive revenue and customer growth."
"We see the Indow Windows product as having tremendous potential to address a huge market," said Reuben Munger, Managing Partner of Vision Ridge. "There are one billion single pane windows in the United States and Indow Windows offers an affordable, effective, and highly appealing solution to better insulate them. The management team has made great progress positioning the company for rapid growth."
Indow Windows has set up dealers throughout Washington and Oregon and is in the process of setting up distribution in key markets throughout the United States. The company's product, a thermal window insert, is composed of a sheet of acrylic glazing edged with a patented Compression Tube, and presses into place on the inside of a window frame without requiring the installation of an interior bracket. Once installed, customers benefit from increased comfort, reduced energy bills, and quieter spaces. The inserts cost approximately 50 to 80% less than a full window replacement, offering sizeable cost savings without sacrificing performance.
"Indow Windows impressed us with their simple solution to a large customer problem of window inefficiency," said Brian Arbogast, lead investor with Northwest Energy Angels. "Beyond a great window insert product, their proprietary ordering system, which streamlines the process for everyone, is a real competitive advantage. Above all, it's a great team focused on growing their business through excellent execution."
The funding culminates a successful year for Indow Windows, which received a Top 10 Green Building Product of the Year award from Sustainable Industries Magazine. The company also won the national Energy Efficiency Category Award and came in second place for the national grand prize at the 2011 CleanTech Open. Most recently, Indow Windows was awarded a Bronze Medal in the Edison Awards innovation competition.
About Indow WindowsHeadquartered in Portland, Oregon, Indow Windows was founded in 2010 when CEO Sam Pardue wanted to find a better way to insulate the windows in his 1906 home. The result: custom-manufactured sheets of acrylic glazing edged with a patent-pending Compression Tube. The company has won numerous sustainability, energy efficiency, consumer product and clean tech awards. For more info: http://www.indowwindows.com.

11-06-2012 12:38 http 314-966-2666 Some of my windows won't stay up and some have seal failure with moisture between the window glass. Is Window Repair an option? Hi, my name is Dennis McHugh and I'm an expert at solving problems related to home and business window and door repairs and replacement in St. Louis, Missouri. People often ask me why some of their windows won't stay up, why they have moisture between the window glass and if those types of windows can or should be repaired. Window and door replacement companies just want to sell new windows and they don't like it when I tell their best prospects what I'm about to share with you. I hope it helps you or someone you know. With so many new construction and replacement window manufacturers competing on price, some of them cut corners in one area where they shouldn't. I'm talking about the window seal that holds the two panes of window glass together and the window's hardware. The extreme weather variables in St. Louis cause the window glass to expand and contract which often causes a broken window seal. Then, through the broken seal, moisture gets pulled in between the window's glass panes. Even the inexpensive window seals and window hardware should last five years, but that doesn't always happen. If you have windows and doors that have moisture between the window glass, or won't stay up, a simple repair instead of window replacement may be all you need. Here's how it works. With the glass replacement ...
