Denver is home to Lifetime Windows, the area’s premier manufacturer, retailer and installer of highly energy-efficient building materials. Situated between the Great Plains to the east and the Rocky Mountains to the west, the Denver metro area is no stranger to extreme weather conditions – and with the now-permanent volatility in the fossil fuel market with skyrocketing prices and uncertain supplies, there has never been a better time to upgrade your home. A small investment in energy-efficient windows and siding today can easily pay for itself in utility savings over a few years. And since 2004, one of the best investments in energy efficiency for the home has been Hardie Siding.

Denver homeowners have been finding that an investment of as little as $1500 in Hardie Cement Siding is the best single way to cut heating and cooling costs. So, if your heating bills over a typical Colorado winter have been running $230 a month (a rough average for the area), this investment would pay for itself in less than two seasons. In fact, if you can make only one improvement to your home this year, you can’t do better than Hardie siding. Denver homeowners who go this route realize a return that is fully 25% better than adding another bathroom – and the cost of adding siding is a mere fraction of what it costs for that extra room (about 1/60th).

Of course, when people think of “cement fiber,” they’re probably thinking that it is fairly ugly. They would be wrong however when it comes to Hardie siding. Denver homes that have Hardie products installed are enhanced in terms of beauty and value; James Hardie siding is crafted with baked-on color (no more painting every two years!) and is made strong enough to withstand all the weather conditions the Front Range is known for.
