Doing Our Best

I've recently been informed that Linked-In is looking to relocate to the Empire State Building.
I suspect that Linked-In is eager to align itself with the deep green status that the Empire State Building has achieved by doing an extensive retrofit to the building envelope and mechanical systems.
The new owners of the Empire State Building will save millions of dollars on their energy costs over the long haul and will keep thousands of tons of green house gasses from polluting our environment.

The main contributing factor to this achievement was the removal and replacement of the buildings' windows.
All 6,514 windows were removed, recycled and replaced with Serious Glass.
The same Serious Glass used in Serious Windows 25 Series Fiberglass windows.

Time Magazine recently published this Empire State Building article: http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,2063860-1,00.html

Great Lakes Carpentry is proud to offer Serious Windows to our local building community and to our clients.
As the Serious Windows Authorized Dealer for Northern Wisconsin, we consider ourselves to be early adopters and ahead of the curve, in the high performance home building market.
We're doing our best to help our clients and other responsible builders to build homes that are safe, durable and extremely energy efficient.
Serious Windows save more energy than any other window. Period.

When we combine our SIP super-insulated building envelope system with our super-insulated Serious Window glazing option, we put our feet firmly on the path to accomplishing Net-Zero Energy and Passive House design standards.

As we move beyond peak oil and energy costs continue to rise, we'll be in perfect position to help all of the people that realize the value in what we offer.

We look forward to moving ahead with the new normal.
