As the screen's fine weave blocks less of the view it reduces glare and reflection and increases airflow.
=== Energy Efficiency ===
Amerimax windows are Energy Star windows, indicating that they are recognized by the Environmental Protection Agency and U.S. Department of Energy as energy saving windows. The National Fenestration Ratings Council provides an assessment of windows' thermal insulation and weather resistance capabilities upon which the Energy Star is based.

The Energy Star seal measures several elements of a window's energy efficiency including how well the window prevents heat from escaping (the U-Factor), how well the window blocks heat gain (the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient -- SHGC), how much light comes through the window (Visible Transmittance -- VT) and how much outside air leaks into the home (Air Leakage -- AL).

=== Environmental Production ===
Amerimax is committed to energy conservation in its production of residential replacement windows. Their “Lean Manufacturing” program includes computer driven materials optimization which maximize the use of all components to reduce the amount of scrap produced in the manufacturing process. The process also ensures that the manufacturing process involves the consumption of fewer raw materials. Amerimax utilizes returnable steel shipping racks for vinyl and glass components to eliminate disposable cardboard and wood pallets and reusable corner shipping blocks for transporting completed windows to dealers. The manufacturer recycles all possible manufacturing scrap materials, office waste and obsolete equipment.

=== Warranty ===
Amerimax's limited lifetime warranty provides a guarentee to the window's frame and sash and guarantees the parts against blistering, pitting, rotting, corroding, flaking and peeling. The window's color is also guaranteed as are the window's moving parts including the locks, balances, keepers and screws. Amerimax provides a warranty on its hermetic seal and the insulating glass.
