Choosing new windows isn’t always simple — especially when you want the perfect balance of performance, style, energy efficiency, and long-term value. Andersen offers some of the most trusted, best-engineered windows in the industry, but with several series to choose from, many homeowners find themselves asking:
Which Andersen window series is right for my home?
As Andersen’s #1 Certified Contractor in New Jersey, Kepo Siding & Windows has installed every Andersen series across every style of home. This guide breaks down the differences between the 100, 200, 400, and premium A-Series, so you can make the most informed decision.
Andersen 100 Series — Strong, Clean & Budget-Friendly
Best for: Modern homes, durability on a budget, homeowners wanting low maintenance.
The Andersen 100 Series is built from their exclusive Fibrex® composite material, which is twice as strong as vinyl and far more durable in extreme weather.
Key Benefits
- Made with Fibrex® — won’t warp, rot, or fade
- Sleek, contemporary lines
- Low-maintenance
- More affordable than wood-clad options
Why We Recommend It
100 Series is the perfect step-up from vinyl for homeowners who want longevity, energy efficiency, and a clean modern look without stretching the budget.
Andersen 200 Series — Value-Packed Wood Interior Option
Best for: Homeowners who want the look of wood without the premium price of the 400 or A-Series.
The 200 Series offers a real wood interior with a protective vinyl exterior. It strikes a strong balance between performance and affordability.
Key Benefits
- Real wood interior you can stain or paint
- Vinyl exterior protects against weather
- Excellent performance at a lower price point
Why We Recommend It
Great for traditional homes that want wood warmth indoors but practical protection outdoors.
Andersen 400 Series — The Most Popular Andersen Window
Best for: Most NJ homeowners; top performance, durability, and style versatility.
The 400 Series is Andersen’s long-time flagship — and the window we install most often. It blends the best of both worlds: a wood interior for beauty and a Fibrex® exterior for exceptional durability.
Key Benefits
- Andersen’s best-selling window
- Industry-leading performance
- Wide range of styles and customizations
- Great balance of cost, appearance, and longevity
Why We Recommend It
If you want a window that outperforms vinyl, lasts for decades, and offers a premium feel without jumping into architectural pricing, 400 Series is the sweet spot.
Andersen A-Series — The Architectural Premium
Best for: High-end builds, historic homes, full renovations, best-in-class performance.
A-Series windows are Andersen’s top-tier option — fully customizable, architecturally precise, and built for maximum efficiency.
Key Benefits
- Highest-performing Andersen window
- Endless color, grille, hardware, and style options
- Superior weather resistance
- Ideal for coastal exposure, historic homes, or design-driven renovations
Why We Recommend It
If design flexibility and long-term performance are top priorities, A-Series is the gold standard. Many luxury and historic homes choose A-Series for authenticity and elegance.
