Energy Efficient Windows
Energy Efficient Windows Offer Comfort and Savings in Atlanta
As much as 30% of a home’s energy can be lost through inadequate windows. In much of the United States, that’s only a concern during winter, but here in Atlanta, with our hot summers, the energy leaks are a financial drain in both winter and summer. Experts say replacement windows’ cost may not be recovered through energy savings. But when you consider that in Atlanta’s high humidity, the old drafty windows may lead to mold, mildew, or worse, to rotting sills and window deterioration through condensation, replacement windows are well worth it.
Replacing your old, drafty windows with WeatherTite’s energy efficient windows, means more comfort for your family and less money spent on heating and air-conditioning costs. In addition, with the range of styles and colors offered by WeatherTite’s Energy Star rated windows, you can accentuate your home’s beauty.
What makes windows energy efficient?
Old-fashioned windows usually consisted of a single layer of glass, framed by aluminum or wood panes. Modern, energy efficient windows have two layers of glass, with an insulating layer or air between them. Modern vinyl panes have been engineered to be better insulators than wood or metal.
Check that the windows you choose are Energy Star rated – a nationally recognized standard by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy.
