Skeptical homeowners frequently ask us, “Will energy-efficient replacement windows save me money?”
The answer is yes! Quality replacement windows with energy-efficient glass packages can dramatically help reduce the transfer of heat and cold into your home. Controlling this conduction of heat and cold will not only improve the comfort level in your home, it will lower the amount of energy it takes to heat or cool your home throughout the year.
The glass package you choose for your replacement windows makes a big difference in their performance. The best windows feature Low E (low emissivity) glass with inert gas sandwiched between multiple panes of glass. This gas fill acts as a type of barrier and helps prevent the transfer of heat or cold into your home. Controlling the amount of convection between the panes of glass will help you use less energy to heat or cool your home.
Another key element is the window frame. Traditional wood frames are poor insulators and subject to drying out, cracking and eventual failure. The high-performance frames in our Andersen replacement windows are stronger, more energy efficient and more durable than other window frames.
We install Northern Virginia replacement windows that are durable and help you lower monthly energy costs, increase the value of your home, reduce maintenance needs, and add beauty to the interior and exterior of your home.
