Energy Efficient Windows

Installing energy-efficient windows can mean increased comfort as well as savings!

A typical home may lose up to 30% of its heat or cooling through windows

Factors that affect a window's energy efficiency are single or multiple-paned, gas filled, Low-Emittance (Low-E) coated and the material of the window frame. All these details contribute to a window's performance. An excellent resource is www.efficientwindows.org, which provides detailed information on these specifications and how to select windows appropriate for various climates.
