Energy Efficient Replacement Windows in Arizona
With the influx of vinyl windows in Arizona, we are the only
replacement window company to offer a product that is proven to last in our harsh climate while also offering a high fuel efficient rating. Not only are vinyl or PVC windows not made for our climate, but in the extreme heat.
A properly chosen window system will greatly improve the energy
efficiency of your Arizona home and balance out environmental extremes; in other
words, it will keep your home colder in the summer months and warmer in the
winter season. If you're interested in reducing energy costs, there are a couple
of ways to do it. Some things to consider include:
Cooling Season Savings
Low-E coatings, gas-fills, and insulating spacers and frames can
significantly reduce winter heat loss and summer heat gain.
Improved Daylight and View
New glazings with low-solar-gain low-E coatings can reduce solar
heat gain significantly with a minimal loss of visible light (compared to older
tints and films).
Improved Comfort
In summer and winter occupant comfort is increased; window
temperatures are more moderate and there are fewer cold drafts. Discomfort from
strong summer sunlight is reduced.
Reduced Condensation
Frame and glazing materials that resist heat conduction do not
become cold and this results in less condensation.
Reduced Fading
Coatings on glass or plastic films within the window assembly
can significantly reduce the ultraviolet (UV) and other solar radiation which
causes fading of fabrics and furnishings.
Lower Mechanical Equipment Costs
Using windows that significantly reduce solar heat gain means that cooling equipment costs may be reduced.
The ENERGY STAR Windows Program
The ENERGY STAR Windows Program is a voluntary partnership
between the U.S. Department of Energy and the fenestration industry to promote
sales of energy efficient windows, doors and skylights. By choosing ENERGY STAR
qualifying products, homeowners can cut their heating and cooling costs, help
make their homes more comfortable and reduce air pollution without sacrificing
versatility or style.
Manufacturers and Retailers agree to promote energy-efficient windows, doors and
skylights through a Memorandum of Understanding signed with the U.S. Department
of Energy.
