Maximizing Energy Efficiency with Modern Window Technologies
The windows on your home may be responsible for up to a third of your home’s energy loss, according to the Department of Energy. Therefore, when you want to enhance the thermal performance of your home, investing in energy-efficient replacement windows is a smart choice. Fortunately, today’s replacement windows come with a range of modern technologies that will enhance the energy efficiency of your home.
Types of Modern Window Technologies
When you opt for energy-efficient windows, you’ll find that they come with a variety of modern window technologies. These include:
- Multi-pane glass – Multiple panes of glass with inert gas fills and a spacer system help to prevent heat from being able to transfer from one side of the window to the other.
- Low-E glass coatings – These coatings on the window glass are completely transparent and help to reflect infrared heat away from the house.
- Insulated window frames – Options like multi-chambered frames or foam-filled frames help to ensure that the frame around your windows is also reducing thermal transfer.
Another important element that will help you maximize the energy efficiency of your replacement windows is proper installation. Ensuring your new windows are properly installed will help them perform at their best while also eliminating air gaps.
