The Importance of Replacement Windows
In times of rising costs for home heating and cooling and the need to reduce energy consumption in Massachusetts, replacement windows are a very smart home improvement investment for your South Shore area home. Not only will replacement windows make your Massachusetts home more energy efficient, they will reduce your heating and cooling costs by as much as 50%. This energy efficiency will also reduce the amount of energy you use and reduce your demand for petroleum products. The investment in replacement windows will also increase the value of your Massachusetts home.
The best alternative is to choose triple-paned windows. This creates two neutralizing spaces in the window, and better insulates your Massachusetts home. With Argon gas in both of the spaces between panes, the triple-paned window will be 50% more effective than the double-paned window filled with Argon. A triple-paned window with Krypton gas in both spaces between panes will be 2.5 times more effective in insulating the home than a double-paned window filled with Argon. The amount of space allowed between the panes is also a factor in the conductivity of the windows.
These energy-efficient windows are easy to identify. They all carry the “EnergyStar” logo, indicating that they meet federal guidelines for efficiency. Talk with your window dealer about the amount of insulation you need in various parts of your home, and you can choose the right window for your specific needs.
