With green initiatives on the rise, more homeowners are looking for ways on how they can reduce their carbon footprint. Changing certain components of your home is one step forward to doing so. In fact, getting new windows can help you go green and help the environment. In this post, Renewal by Andersen® of Rapid City, the expert on residential window services, shares how getting new windows helps save the environment.
Old single-pane windows offer little prevention in letting outdoor temperatures from entering your home. On the other hand, installing new multi-pane windows can help reduce your heating costs by up to 15 percent. Modern multi-pane windows can boost your home’s energy efficiency and cut down on your monthly utility costs.
Our energy-efficient windows feature low-emissivity or Low-E coatings that minimize heat loss during the winter and keep the heat at bay during the summer. In turn, your window installation company would tell you that you can experience year-long comfort. Another green feature of our windows is low-conductivity frames. Here at Renewal by Andersen of Rapid City, our windows feature our proprietary Fibrex® material, a reclaimed wood that is superior to vinyl. If you choose to pick this material for future window replacement projects, you’ll have windows that are durable, beautiful, and low-maintenance.
Getting new windows will allow more light to enter your home. As such, you won’t have to rely on artificial lighting as much. Compared to older windows, you won’t feel as uncomfortable since there is less heat transference in modern windows. This also further reduces your monthly utility costs and carbon footprint.
