Energy efficiency is more than a buzzword—it’s a way for homeowners to save money while benefiting the environment. At Renewal by Andersen, we are proud to offer windows equipped with low-E glass, a cutting-edge technology that minimizes heat transfer and delivers savings. Here’s how it works and why it matters for your wallet and comfort.
What is Low-E Glass?
Low-E, or low-emissivity glass, features a nearly invisible metallic coating that reflects infrared and ultraviolet light. This means your home stays cooler in summer and warmer in winter without overworking your HVAC system. For Wisconsin homeowners, where the seasons can be extreme, low-E glass offers a solution that ensures year-round comfort.
How Low-E Glass Saves You Money
By reducing heat loss in the winter and minimizing heat gain in the summer, Low-E glass lowers your reliance on heating and cooling systems. According to the Department of Energy, energy-efficient windows can save homeowners hundreds of dollars annually on utility bills. Over time, those savings add up to a substantial amount that offsets the initial cost of upgrading your windows.
Additional Benefits of Low-E Glass
- UV Protection: Low-E coatings block up to 95% of harmful UV rays, protecting your floors, furniture, and artwork from fading. This feature preserves your interior’s beauty and extends the life of your furnishings.
- Condensation Reduction: By maintaining consistent indoor temperatures, Low-E glass helps minimize the formation of condensation on windows, which can lead to mold or water damage.
- Increased Property Value: Homebuyers are increasingly prioritizing energy-efficient features. Upgrading to Low-E windows can improve your home’s market appeal and overall value.
The Smart Choice
Windows with Low-E glass are a long-term investment that pays off in several ways. While they may cost more upfront, the savings on energy bills and increased home value make them a cost-effective choice. Additionally, this glass contributes to a quieter, more comfortable indoor environment by reducing external noise levels.
