The Role Windows Play in an Energy-Efficient Home

Your windows play an important role in maintaining your home’s energy efficiency. They secure the gaps in your home’s exterior and prevent energy from escaping. They also regulate the amount of sunlight and heat that can get indoors.

For old, damaged or drafty windows, we recommend installing our replacement windows as soon as possible to ensure maximum energy efficiency for your interior. Learn more here:

How can Windows Contribute to Energy Efficiency?

Energy efficiency is about making the most of the energy that your home uses each day. For instance, this means minimizing the unnecessary workload of your utility systems. The less extra work they have to do, the more comfortable they can keep you. A window helps with this by creating an airtight barrier between your interior and the outside world. Ideally, a window must not let any conditioned air escape. The more air escapes, the more work your HVAC system will have to do to keep you comfortable.

Windows can also reduce the workload on your utility system by regulating the amount of solar heat entering your home. The more heat that gets into your home, the harder it is for your air conditioning system to maintain the temperature you want. As a window replacement expert, we recommend installing our products. Our replacement windows are popular because they maximize the amount of visible light that enters your home while minimizing solar heat.

How Do Energy-Efficient Windows Work?

Our replacement windows are energy-efficient because they have low-emissivity glass coatings and insulating gas fills. Low-emissivity glass coatings reflect heat and UV rays away from your home while allowing visible light to pass through. The insulating gas fills complement this function by minimizing heat transfer. In addition to their energy efficiency, our products also have many colors, customization options and designs.
