Energy-Efficient Windows
Your new replacement windows need to be energy-efficient. With the right windows, you’ll enjoy the natural light without harmful UV rays. Windows with performance glass block UV rays and keep unwanted heat out during the warm months.
Replacing old windows with ENERGYSTAR® certified windows may lower household energy bills by 7 to 15%. Lower energy consumption reduces greenhouse gas emissions from power plants and shrinks a house’s carbon footprint.
UV rays can also damage your upholstery and carpet if not blocked. Choose replacement windows with Low-E glass that will work to enhance your home’s energy efficiency.
