ENERGY EFFICIENT WINDOWS FOR YOUR MARYLAND HOME

Looking for a long-term solution to high energy bills? Cutting down on your electricity bill could be as easy as replacing your old windows.

Installing energy efficient windows can reduce your energy bills by up to 30 percent. How? The best way to understand this concept is to learn about the features of energy efficient windows and how they can contribute savings to the household’s energy use.

How Do Energy-Efficient Windows Work?

Energy efficient windows provide better insulation through the use of specialized materials such as double glass panels, ensuring that spaces between the panes are air-filled. Some windows have that space with gases like argon, which is known for its low conductivity. This way the heat and energy from the sun is absorbed and used effectively around the area. A special glaze can also be applied on the windows that can significantly reduce energy loss by allowing the sunlight to penetrate while conserving the energy that it produces.

Homeowners in a warm climate can opt for windows that have reflective glass since this minimizes the amount of heat and energy being absorbed directly from the sun. You can still enjoy the natural light without having to bear the warm heat.

The Benefits of ENERGY STAR Windows

If you are planning to purchase energy-efficient windows for your home, look for the ones with the ENERGY STAR seal. This indicates that the product is certified as fully complying with energy-saving requirements. Another thing to consider is the climate in your area since you’ll need a window that can address your heating or cooling issues.

Learn about the different manufacturing brands and compare their features and prices. It is always best to seek help from professional window installers that can answer your questions and help you find the right energy efficient window for your home.
