Specialty: Vinyl replacement windows, entry doors (any exterior type door except for garage doors) and Advanced Gutter Cover leaf protection system in consumer home shows, and targeted direct mail - the company services only residential consumers.

Founded in 1978, Air-Tite Home Products is dedicated to combining innovative design with premium materials, quality workmanship, and a philosophy of total customer service. Excellence in quality, dependability, and service are the hallmark of the company. It manufactures, installs, services and warrantys all products to ensure complete satisfaction, providing a high quality product for an affordable price.

Air-Tite Home Products offers a diverse line of superior vinyl replacement windows, a complete array of entry door systems, and an Advanced Gutter Cover leaf protection system.

With energy costs soaring, the choice of replacement doors and windows is more than cosmetic. In fact replacing old, poorly insulated windows and doors can add up to real savings.

"The only real defense against increasing energy costs is to make your home more energy efficient," said Karen Lauer, marketing director. "Most sources claim that energy-efficient windows and doors can reduce heating costs as much as 35 percent. Since we're an EnergyStar partner, Air-Tite Home Products windows and doors qualify or the 2007 Energy Tax Credit."

Designed to provide lasting beauty and satisfaction, Air-Tite replacement windows are commercial-grade reinforced vinyl, known for its strength and thermal efficiency. With dual-paned insulated glass and triple weather stripping, Air-Tite windows provide maximum durability and protection against the elements. A limited lifetime warranty program ensures that your windows will enjoy a long life.

The custom-made windows also are remarkably easy to clean. Tilt in both sashes on the double hung, or loft out each sash on the slider; these simple steps allow cleaning of both the inside and outside panes from within your home.

High-quality entry systems, patio doors, and storm doors are available in a wide range of styles and colors, allowing you to make a statement that is uniquely yours.

Whether you choose fiberglass or steel construction, you will enjoy peace of mind without sacrificing beauty or style, along with the reassurance of a limited lifetime warranty.

The edges and face skin of Air-Tite's steel doors are one continuous piece of steel for strength and durability. Their 20- gauge steel door gives you 49 percent more galvanized steel than a standard 24-gauge door.

The fiberglass door skin is composite fiberglass, reinforced with a high-impact resin that resists nicks, swelling, denting, and cracking. For a more natural-looking texture, the wood grain pattern is 25 percent deeper than the pattern on standard fiberglass doors.

The Advanced Gutter Cover is a new addition to the Air-Tite Home Products lineup. Most customers do not realize the importance of clean gutters on a home. Poorly maintained gutters can cause roof, fascia and soffit damage, as well as leaky basements and landscape erosion. Cleaning gutters can be a never-ending chore and is the leading cause of accidental injuries.

Air-Tite's system features an exclusive, patented Cobra Clip bracket, which is 45 percent stronger and 300 times sturdier than any other bracket in the industry. It pulls the entire gutter flush to the fascia and distributes the weight of ice and snow build-up to the fascia, not the gutter.

This creates proper alignment of roof, panel, and gutter, insuring your gutters won't clog. Keep the debris out and the water flowing through your gutters, while saving time, money, and adding to the market value of your home.
