How Can New Windows Improve Your Home’s Energy Efficiency?

Along with a new roofing system, replacing your old windows can significantly improve your home’s energy efficiency. Quality windows will help keep your living space comfortable all year round, reducing your dependence on your HVAC system. Here are more ways window replacement can make your home more energy-efficient.  

UV Protection

While sunlight can brighten and add life to your living space, it can cause your furnishings to fade. Fortunately, many windows today come with low-emissivity glass coatings. They allow windows to illuminate your home while blocking UV rays, protecting your precious belongings.  

Multiple-Pane Glass

Modern windows usually have multi-pane glass. You will get superior insulation from replacement windows with at least two panes of glass. They make it easier for your HVAC system to cool or heat your home. As a result, you will enjoy more savings on your energy costs. The excellent insulative capabilities of multi-pane windows can also help with outdoor noise reduction. 

Airtight Seals

Proper sealing will prevent drafts in your home that can cause uneven temperatures and discomfort. It will also help reduce the pollutants that enter your indoor spaces. High-quality windows feature airtight glass seals and frames. If you’re looking for energy-efficient window options, Homecraft® Inc. has got you covered. We can also assist with your roof repair and replacement needs. 

Improved Ventilation

Excess humidity can negatively affect your indoor air quality and comfort. It pays to invest in windows that can encourage passive ventilation. Choose operable styles, like casements or double-hung windows, to allow more fresh air into your space and eliminate humid indoor air.
