NEW GORELL WEB SITE FEATURES INTERACTIVE TOOLS AND PERFORMANCE RATINGS

INDIANA, PA, October 16, 2009—Gorell Windows & Doors has launched a new 130-page web site, www.gorell.com, that’s especially designed to make learning about windows and doors, particularly Gorell products, more engaging and informative for site visitors. A major feature of the new site is an interactive window and door “visualization” tool that allows site visitors to see how products will look and perform by making selections from options such as colors, interior wood grains, grids and glass systems. The window’s U-value and solar heat gain coefficient—and whether or not the product qualifies for the $1,500 tax credit for 2009-2010—are all provided with the new tool. (See http://www.gorell.com/pages/5300_double_hung.htm to access the new tool and try it.)

The new Gorell web site also features a comprehensive “Pressroom” section that offers access to company news releases, video news clips, Gorell’s Blog, biographies of key company executives, company background information and its social media links. (See http://www.gorell.com/pages/press_room.cfm.)

The site’s interactive “Window Anatomy” feature allows consumers to familiarize themselves with the various components of windows. Numerous YouTube videos that are relevant to specific web page content can also be accessed throughout the site.

The new web site features an extensive section on the 2009-2010 Federal Tax Credit. It provides consumers with highlights about the tax credit, step-by-step instructions for how to take advantage of the tax credit, a comprehensive list of Gorell’s more than 500 model/option combinations that qualify for the credit and Gorell’s Manufacturer’s Certification Statements.
