Windows play a significant role in the energy efficiency of your home. If your utility bills have been increasing lately, there is a high chance that it’s because of your old, deteriorating windows. After replacing them, you will notice a dramatic improvement in your comfort and a reduction in your heating and cooling costs.
Here’s how window replacement can improve your home’s energy efficiency.
Increased Comfort
Your home will become more comfortable with energy-efficient windows. They help keep your home cool in summer and warm in winter by preventing air leaks. These units will keep your heating and cooling system from working too hard, helping minimize malfunctions and prolonging its life. It means you will not only save on energy bills but also on HVAC repair costs.
Eliminate Drafts
Aging windows are more likely to leak and cause unconditioned air to enter your living space. When this happens, your HVAC system will need to work harder than it should. As a result, your energy bill increases. You can avoid this issue by investing in high-quality replacement windows and hiring an experienced contractor.
More Natural Light
Modern, energy-efficient windows will bring more natural light into your home while blocking harmful ultraviolet rays. They can illuminate your indoor spaces and help prevent solar heat gain. Another great thing about these windows is that they can protect your furniture, flooring, decor and other belongings from fading. Energy-efficient windows come with a low-emissivity glass coating that blocks UV light.
