Renewal by Andersen of Wyoming

The term “energy-efficient” may sound rather intimidating and expensive to some. In reality, it is the best way to ensure a comfortable space while saving a lot more money eventually. Over the years, this has been an essential factor when choosing the suitable window material, and today, your trusted window contractor delves into the possible reasons why.

What Makes Your Windows Energy-Efficient?

Different components like low-emissivity (low-E) glass, argon gas, multiple panes and quality frame materials make a window energy-efficient. A properly insulated energy envelope should prevent the thermal transfer or heat leaks and sustain consistent indoor temperatures, reducing the house’s heating and cooling requirements. 

The Benefits of Energy-Efficient Replacement Windows

• Energy savings: Half of an average household’s annual utility costs are spent alone on heating and cooling systems. A window replacement project improves indoor comfort while reducing your monthly utility dues.
• Improved natural lighting: Most energy-efficient windows have coatings blocking ultraviolet (UV) rays and heat from the sun. It lets you have direct sunlight heating your home even during cooler seasons.
• Increased living space comfort: Your existing windows are highly prone to air leakage and likely have poor insulation. Meanwhile, modern energy-efficient replacement windows can guarantee superior insulation, enabling properties to have a comfortable temperature.
• Less sound transmission: As mentioned, high-quality windows have glass panes with inert gas within them to reduce noise pollution. Having energy-efficient windows with two or more panes is significantly helpful if you’re having trouble resting at night or having kids and pets living in a busy area.
• Streamline builds: Conventional windows can lose up to 10 times the heat compared to well-insulated walls around them during colder months. This will require heating registers to be placed under windows and around the outside of rooms. Fortunately, high-performance windows can easily make perimeter heating less crucial.
