The single largest source of energy loss in a home is its aging windows, so it is very possible that new windows can help reduce your energy bills. This is especially true if your current windows are more than 10 years old or are warped and in disrepair. However, even if your home is new construction, this does not guarantee that you have energy efficient windows. Many builders use low grade windows to cut costs, leaving the homeowner with poor energy efficiency.
New windows can prevent the three main sources of energy loss which are:
– Infiltration – When cold air from the outside infiltrates into your house through or around the windows, it makes your home feel drafty and your heating system work harder to maintain a comfortable temperature.
– Conduction – This occurs when the glass on the outside of your window is being heated or cooled by the weather, while your HVAC system is trying to create the opposite environment on the inside. If you have ever seen icicles form on your windows during winter, then you are likely experiencing heat loss through conduction.
– Radiation – Primarily occurring in the warmer months, radiation on windows happens when the sun heats the surface of the window, which then emits this radiation into your home, making it harder for the HVAC system to keep the house cool.
If you are ready to upgrade to new windows that can prevent these problems and help lower your energy bills, then turn to the professionals at BELDON®. All of our windows are ENERGY STAR® rated and will help to reduce energy loss. That’s because they are equipped with features such as Low-E glass that prevents radiation, multi-chambered frames and warm-edge spacers that limit air infiltration, and double- or triple-paned glass to prevent conduction. Plus, our expert installers always measure twice before installing to ensure a perfect fit, further reducing the risk of drafts and air infiltration.
