Two words.
Hard work!

Just to clarify, Energystar Partner has nothing to do with window quality. It has to do with the efforts a company takes to promote Energystar rated products.
Here is the application.

I'm thinking of applying.
Here's another Energystar Partner

Re: Gorell--simonton
so Gorell or anyone else has to apply to become energy partner of the year?
its based not on how energy efficient or how well engineered your window is,it has to do with the fact that your product MEETS energy requirements and how much/well you spend on advertising energy efficiency?
i thought something was strange when Alside won the award.

Well, that and a good thesis about how wonderful your company is and how much you really need the award for marketing purposes.

Check Gorell's web site.
Although it is written by their marketing department, it explains what is required to achieve this award.

Everybody looks for a marketing edge. Simonton is no different. You'd be hard pressed to find a better company than Gorell to do business with. They make a hell of a product and the CS is second to none.

+1 to buddy's comments. Regardless of how this reward is handed out, Gorell and Alside should never be used in the same sentence except to describe the "right" and "wrong" ways to design, manufacture, and service a product.
Re: Gorell--simonton
My only point is that Energy Star Partner status has nothing to do with window quality or CS. Yes, Gorell is an excellent brand AND they are an Energy Star Partner but one has no bearing on the other. There are also many excellent brands that have great CS and are NOT Energy Star Partners
Re: Gorell--simonton
i am a big fan of Gorell, no doubt. i was just questioning the true meaning of energy partner of the year.on its surface it would seem its because they have the most efficient products which is clearly not the case. the award should ne energy star marketing partner of the year. anyway,it is what it is and gorell is a solid company. i love the 5300.
