Old and damaged windows won’t be doing you any favors this summer. If you want your home to stay cool and energy-efficient despite the excess heat, you’re going to need newer and better windows. Here’s how a new window installation can maintain your home’s thermal comfort and energy efficiency this summer.
Keeping Cooling Energy Inside Your Home
When windows become old and damaged, they will no longer be as effective at keeping conditioned air trapped inside your home. This can lead to inconsistent indoor temperature and higher air conditioning costs. But with new windows, this won’t be much of a problem because their seals are stronger and tighter.
The windows’ insulating value is determined by the material they use. The replacement windows offered by Renewal by Andersen® of Northwest Ohio, for instance, are made of Fibrex®. This revolutionary composite material can provide the superior durability and insulating properties of wood, and combines them with the low-maintenance performance of vinyl. Fibrex windows are impervious to damage, allowing for tough and airtight seals that help keep your living space cool and comfortable home this summer – sans the considerable energy bills.
Reducing Solar Heat Gain
Failing windows make it easy for solar heat to enter your home. They’ll create hot spots that prompt your air conditioning system to work harder, making it consume more energy in the process. You should get new windows for this reason. Renewal by Andersen windows come with High-Performance™ Low-E4® SmartSun™ glass, which reduces solar heat transfer to your home during summer. The space between their panes are also filled with an argon gas blend for greater thermal performance, ensuring the blistering heat from the sun is kept effectively at bay.
