The U.S. Department of Energy explains that your windows are responsible for around 40% of your annual utility costs. This is why it’s best to invest in energy-efficient units. They have the necessary elements to keep your home cozy while keeping energy bills down.
Renewal by Andersen® of Northwest Ohio talks about of what energy-efficient replacement windows are made.
Warm Edge Spacers
A spacer maintains the correct distance between your window panes. We use stainless, low-conductivity ones to prevent rapid heat transfer through your windows. This helps achieve and maintain effective thermal stability.
Quality Frame Materials
All Renewal by Andersen replacement windows are made of our exclusive Fibrex® composite material. Being part-wood, it has superior, inherent insulating properties that prevent heat from easily going into and out of your home. It also offers wood’s durability and vinyl’s low maintenance qualities. Despite the frequent temperature changes, your windows will not easily contract or expand, keeping your home weathertight all year long.
Multiple Panes
All our units come standard with dual panel glass that’s sure to give you doubled protection. Tests done reveal that windows with dual panel glass can insulate better than those with only a single pane.
Gas Fills
We take good advantage of the space created by our dual panel glass design. We fill this gap with inert argon gas, a non-toxic, colorless and odorless gas. It has far more superior insulating qualities than regular air.
Low-Emissivity (Low-E) Glass
The type of glass your replacement windows have makes all the difference when it comes to energy efficiency. At Renewal by Andersen, we offer two premier glass options that are sure to let light in while maintaining indoor temperature at comfortable levels. Compared to the ordinary dual-panel glass, our High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass is found to be 47% more energy-efficient during summer and 56% more energy-efficient during winter. Our High-Performance Low-E4 SmartSun™ glass, on the other hand, is 49% more energy during winter and up to 70% more energy-efficient during summer.
