Windows are not only able to complete the look of your home; they are also crucial to your home’s ventilation, indoor comfort and overall energy efficiency. So even though replacing old windows usually requires a significant amount, it might just be worth the investment you’re going to put in.
In this post, California Energy Consultant Service discusses some of the ways that window replacement can help you save money.
Several window options today require minimal upkeep. So when you upgrade to certain types of modern windows, you can expect the maintenance requirements to be lighter and simpler. Of course, with less maintenance needed, the costs associated with it will naturally decrease as well.
Furthermore, low-maintenance windows are just easier to handle, especially for busy homeowners. Since you can maximize the life span of your new windows, you won’t have to change windows frequently due to premature breakdowns.
Window replacement can also help improve your home’s energy efficiency. Old, drafty windows can cause energy loss and account for up to 40% of your heating and cooling expenses. By installing replacement windows, particularly those with exceptional energy efficiency features, you can keep your utility bills low all year round.
Take note that some energy efficiency features in windows are only ideal in certain climates. For instance, you may see double-pane and triple-pane windows on the market. Generally, triple-pane windows are more energy-efficient than double-pane windows. However, the difference between these two types of windows can be negligible in places that experience warmer climates. So unless you live in a colder region, you might not be able to get the most out of triple-pane windows.
Always consult window professionals to learn the specific window features that would benefit your home.
