GORELL INTRODUCING REFLECTIVE INSULATION PRODUCTS FOR MAKING HOMES HIGHLY ENERGY EFFICIENT AND COMFORTABLE

INDIANA, PA, December 22, 2009—Gorell Windows & Doors is introducing a new product line—the R-Comfort™ line of reflective building insulation products that are proven effective in making homes more comfortable and reducing home energy consumption and costs. The new products are R-Comfort Attic Wrap, Rafter Wrap, House Wrap and Water Heater Wrap. Because they are safe for the environment and qualify for both ENERGY STAR® and the $1,500 federal tax credit program, they are a perfect fit with Gorell’s offering of green, highly energy-efficient windows and patio doors. R-Comfort products are manufactured for Gorell by Environmentally Safe Products, Inc. and are available through Gorell’s exclusive network of window and home-improvement dealers.

R-Comfort reflective insulating products are by-products of the U.S. space program, in which the material used for space suits was developed to reflect body heat inward and the sun’s heat outward. Made completely of nontoxic, hypoallergenic materials, all R-Comfort insulating products feature a pure aluminum facing that’s flame-laminated to an impermeable closed-cell polyethylene material. They are designed to be installed over attic joists and rafters and around the exterior walls of homes before siding is applied. These products are safe and easy to install. They are so flexible that they seal around fasteners tightly to create an effective vapor barrier.

Gorell—2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 ENERGY STAR® Sustained Excellence Award winner and Partner of the Year from 2004 to 2009—manufactures windows for replacement and new-construction applications, patio doors and aluminum storm windows and doors. The company markets its products through a network of dealers and distributors.
