The Sunday, Oct. 11, episode of ABC television network’s “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” will include Pella products donated by Pella Windows & Doors, Greenfield, Mass. The episode will air at 8 p.m. Eastern/7 p.m. Central on ABC-TV.
The makeover in Suffield, Conn., marks the 23rd appearance of Pella products to help complete the new construction of a home for a deserving family featured in the series. Pella Architect Series® doors and ProLine® windows were included in the New England-style home built for this episode.
“The Pella team was honored to team with ‘Extreme Makeover: Home Edition’ to create better views for this deserving family,’” said Al Herringshaw, General Manager of Pella’s Greenfield, Mass., branch. “The windows and doors and the skilled expertise of the team make Pella a natural fit for these unique projects. We thank our Pella system team members who made this special project a reality.”
Each episode features a race against time on a project that would normally take at least four months to achieve, involving a team of designers, contractors and several hundred workers who have just seven days to build an entire house plus the exterior and landscaping. Viewers see the transformation of the home and the reactions and emotions of the deserving homeowners.
