Independent Proof Our Windows
& Installation Are Top-Notch.
Quality That’s Objectively Verified.
Every window company in Richmond and Central VA will tell you their windows and installation are the best. So how do you know who’s telling the truth… and who’s stretching it?
It’s simple. Just look to see if the company or its windows have any independent certifications or awards. Companies with truly great windows and installation will have ample third-party proof that they “walk the talk.”
Here’s a look at ours…

Alside Manufacturer-Certified Installation
Something that makes us unique in the window industry is that our window installation is manufacturer-certified. This means that the installers who replace your windows have received intensive training according to factory guidelines.
Factory-certified installation ensures you the most energy-efficient result. It also guarantees workmanship that strictly complies with the warranty terms the window manufacturer sets.
NFRC Certified
NFRC stands for National Fenestration Rating Council. The NFRC is a non-profit organization that tests, certifies, and labels windows based on various energy-performance ratings. A window that meets or exceeds these standards carries an NFRC-Certified label that displays individual efficiency ratings. (See our Window Energy Efficiency page for details about NFRC ratings.)
ENERGY STAR Certified
ENERGY STAR is a program run by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Windows that qualify for ENERGY STAR certification must meet the following standards:
- Manufactured by an ENERGY STAR partner, which are companies (like Alside) that make a commitment to creating energy-efficient products
- Independently tested, certified, and verified by the NFRC
- Has NFRC ratings that meet stringent energy-efficiency guidelines the EPA sets
Our windows are so efficient that they actually surpass ENERGY STAR standards! Find out more on our Window Energy Efficiency page.
Insulating Glass Certification Council Verification
The Insulating Glass Certification Council (IGCC) is a third-party sponsor of a certification program that analyzes seal durability for insulating glass. Glass must pass strict laboratory testing based on American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards to receive IGCC certification.
Our windows contain IGCC-certified glass, so you’re ensured windows with the best possible insulating properties.
Bottom Line: You Get Independently Proven Windows & Installation.
