On Wednesday, May 11, 2011 from 6:00 to 8:30PM HARBROOK Fine Windows, Doors & Hardware hosts an AIA Course for Architects entitled: "Beyond Performance: Assessing the Sustainability of Windows.” This AIA certification course will be hosted at HARBROOK's showroom, and Marvin Windows & Doors will be the keynote presenters. Features of this AIA Certification Course include:

      HARBROOK Fine Windows, Doors & Hardware has worked on several Green projects including LEED certified (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) residential projects, LEED certified commercial projects, and on Green Building Certified residential construction projects.  HARBROOK is able to apply its Go Green philosophy and knowledge about energy efficient windows and doors to many award-winning projects. 

      Condensation is a natural occurrence, but when it shows up in homes, homeowners look for answers and solutions. Condensation can best be understood as occurring when droplets of water form on the nearest cool or cold surface when air molecules become saturated and can no longer contain additional moisture. Because warmer air can hold more moisture than cooler air, and glass surfaces act as barriers or breaks between the outdoor and indoor are temperatures, windows can be an obvious surface where moisture may collect.

In assessing the "Green Rating" of a window product we must look at the total picture: Energy efficiency. resource efficiency (durability) and how the manufacturing process impacts the environment are three important points in determining how "Green" a product is.

HARBROOK Fine Windows, Doors & Hardware provided the energy efficient windows on this LEED PLATINUM designated Historic Barton Mines Headquarters Project in Glens Falls, New York, a complete renovation of a 16,000 square foot three-story brick building dating from 1865.

The newest, most innovative line of high-performance windows on the market just got even better! Marvin’s Ultimate Casement windows meet the tough energy efficiency requirements to qualify for a tax credit of up to $1,500 under the federal economic stimulus package.
