ProVia Entry & Storm Doors Embody Energy Efficiency

Eco-friendliness seems to be a popular concept in 2024. New windows, bathroom remodels, and even paint colors are focused on biophilia, or the human tendency to connect with nature. In addition to installing large windows to soak in the outdoors and painting your walls in earthy tones, another way to be a friend to the environment is to install ProVia entry and storm doors, which meet high standards when it comes to energy efficiency.

“The team at ProVia had energy efficiency at the top of their minds when designing their doors,” said Gabe Schmidt, a Sales Design Consultant with Callen. “They thought of everything so that the product was something consumers felt good about. That’s why Callen uses ProVia.”

Being eco-conscious and energy efficient is not only trendy, but it also has a host of other benefits. The first, and perhaps most obvious, is that energy efficient doors can help lower your energy bills. “With energy-efficient doors, your home will not only feel more comfortable, but it will require less energy to heat in the winter and cool in the summer,” Gabe said.

But the benefits don’t end at cost cutting. When you slash your energy and electricity usage, you help the U.S. power grid remain reliable and resilient. Finally, decreasing energy rates mean a lower dependency on fossil fuels, which will lead to cleaner air, water, and better health for humans overall.

“Callen works with ProVia doors because we are assured of their stellar performance, as well as the amount of testing they go through to assure they meet certain energy efficiency standards,” said Gabe.

ProVia’s storm and entry doors have certain elements that meet these standards, including frame depth and foam insulation. Both elements act as a seal to separate the outside temperature from the inside temperature. “The thicker the frame, the better the thermal efficiency, which helps regulate the temperature inside your home,” he said. “The foam insulation then fills in the cavities of the frame to resist too much heat and fight against the cold. ProVia’s fiberglass entry doors provide four times the insulation as wood doors, and its storm doors are 20% thicker than the industry standard,” said Gabe.

Another element of ProVia’s energy efficiency doors is weatherstripping, which provides a tight barrier between the inside of your home and the air or water outside. “ProVia doors also use bulb seals, an extra layer of protection, enhancing the weather stripping’s sealing performance,” he said.

ProVia doors also exceed industry standards in durability, security, and style. “ProVia doors are high in density, meaning they can stand tall in any kind of weather, and keep what’s important to you secure,” Gabe said. “They can also be customized to match the feel of your home or meet your style and design expectations. With our workmanship grantee and professional installation, you will love your new ProVia entry doors!”
