Homeowners often want to replace their windows to boost their home’s energy efficiency, improving energy savings and overall comfort year after year. So, it’s important to obtain windows that have energy-efficient features.
Window Glass
You know a window is energy-efficient when it features a low-emissivity (low-E) glass coating. It allows sunlight into your home interior, but reduces ultraviolet (UV) and infrared light intrusion. The former causes your furniture and fixtures to fade while the latter is responsible for keeping your home less comfortable during summer and winter.
Window Panes
Apart from the low-E glass coatings, an energy-efficient window also features at least two panes of glass. Single-pane windows still exist but have fallen out of favor in part due to the qualities their dual-pane counterparts possess, including top-notch thermal performance, reducing the likelihood of heat transfer.
