ProVia's Embarq Fiberglass Entry Door
With the introduction of Embarq and our new EnVision program, we are strengthening our commitment to leadership in energy efficiency.
(PRWEB) April 17, 2014
ProVia, a leader in exterior building products, today announced the launch of the company’s new Embarq™ Fiberglass Entry Door System, the most energy-efficient entry door available in the U.S. market. Embarq’s performance was independently tested by Architectural Testing, Inc. (ATI), a leading building products testing and certification laboratory in North America.
As ProVia set out on the journey to develop this new entry door, it expanded into a complete philosophy of creating unrivaled efficiency in home building products. This new way of thinking is called “EnVision”, and its first creation is Embarq – the doorway to innovation and efficiency.
Key Features of Embarq Fiberglass Entry Doors
- Embarq doors provide a U-factor of 0.10 (U-value is a measure of resistance to heat conduction – the lower the better).
- To enhance efficiency and accommodate more insulation, the Embarq fiberglass entry door is two and a half inches thick, which is 43% thicker than standard exterior doors.
- An integrated channel in the side rails and header of the door allows for even more energy-efficient foam.
- A dual perimeter seal to create a nearly impenetrable barrier against drafts and energy leaks.
- A custom-designed sweep which accommodates the door’s added thickness and keeps out unwanted elements and uncomfortable temperatures.
- Available in six popular door styles and three wood grain species: Cherry, Mahogany or Oak.
- ProVia’s patented process allows a different series, style and finish to be used on each side of the door.
- Lifetime Limited Warranty on the door structure, and 10-Year Finish Warranty.
“As a company, ProVia has always emphasized energy efficiency and pursued continuous improvements with high energy-performing products,” says Brian Miller, President of ProVia. “With the introduction of Embarq and our new EnVision program, we are strengthening our commitment to leadership in energy efficiency.”
