Improving Health and Home Efficiency by Opening Windows

Whether it’s because of bugs or security reasons, not many people like keeping their windows open. But that’s a shame, as open windows can provide many impactful benefits. The trusted window replacement contractor in the area, California Energy Consultant Service, explains why you should start opening your windows. 

Better Natural Ventilation

The California summer encourages most homeowners to keep their air-conditioning systems running throughout the day. But this continuous operation will soon take a toll. Now that it’s fall, you should try giving your AC a break. Consider other ways of keeping your home cool, and the simplest one is to open your windows. This allows you to cool your home naturally, allowing for improved indoor comfort while cutting down air-conditioning costs.

But in order to get the most out of natural ventilation, you’ll need to get the right kind of windows. California Energy Consultant Service can help you with this. We are your one-stop shop for high-quality and energy-efficient replacement windows from Andersen®, Simonton® and Milgard®. Schedule a consultation with us and we’ll discuss how our exceptional window options can take your home performance and energy efficiency to the next level.

Improved Indoor Air Quality

Most people assume that keeping their windows closed helps limit their exposure to outdoor pollution. That’s mostly true, but on the flip side, closed windows do expose people to a variety of indoor contaminants and harmful particles. These include dust, pet dander, mold spores, allergens and volatile organic compounds.

Poor indoor air quality can be easily mitigated by just leaving your windows open at least 15 minutes every day. This gives enough time for contaminated air to escape outside and for fresh air to find its way into your home. If you’re still worried about poor indoor air quality when you finally close your windows, you should consider investing in a quality air purification system. You can ask the experts at California Energy Consultant Service — we’re always ready and available to help you explore your HVAC and indoor air quality options and decide on an air purifier that will suit your needs.
