Some of the more well known quality control inspections we adhere to are listed as follows, in no particular order: American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA): This is an international based window quality standard set up to evaluate the overall functioning, performance and construction of the different components of the window (frame, metallic hardware used, and window glass). The agency extends out a "Gold Label" to a select few which is the highest possible rating for a vinyl window. American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM): This agency leads as an international window product rating company regarding the measurement of many different areas within the window industry. More in particular things like: overall integrity, safety functioning, and customer's level of satisfaction, etc. Better Business Bureau (BBB): Lewisville Windows proudly reports that they have many associations and affiliations with other window companies and agency's (window suppliers, etc.) that have an A as well as an A+ rating! This means you will receive the best possible window service available to you when purchasing new windows from us or any of our many different suppliers. Energy Star Partner: This is a dual partnership of the U.S. governments' Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Energy. It was established to help households conserve on the costs associated with energy consumption and to also help preserve the overall quality of the environment through reducing the amount of greenhouse gasses being dispersed into our atmosphere. If you have energy efficient products placed into your home, you qualify for government tax breaks and rebates. |
