Isn't it great to have a window that gives your clients a chance for a real upgrade? Certainly the Serious Windows come with a price tag, but if you're going to the expense of building passive, LEED, or even just highly energy efficient, it makes sense to look at this option. I just visited a home out in Happy Valley that had the Serious Windows installed. Built by John Mead of Cellar Ridge Homes, this house was shooting for LEED Platinum and used Serious Windows all throughout. The windows looked amazing, and went a long way towards his LEED goals.

I'll be sure to use your graphic when talking to clients about windows.
