The Science of Energy Efficient Windows

Posted In Energy Efficient Windows
Published December 11, 2018

Once you’ve made the decision to go with new emergency efficient widows, the next crucial part in the process will be choosing the design, the listed energy usage, and labeling, not to mention professional installation.

It’s key when shopping for new windows that you keep an eye out for the Energy Star logo. This stick will correspond to the ratings by the National Fenestration Rating Council which will in turn help you decide which window’s efficiency meets your specific needs.

These ratings will be found on every Energy Star window and it will give you a very accurate measure of how the window performs against all others. Therefore to get the most out of these ratings, it’s best you familiarize yourself with the rating system beforehand.   

After viewing the ratings, it’s best to consider what time of climate will the windows primarily be subject to throughout the year. In colder parts of the country the selection of gas-filled, low e-coating windows will serve as proper insultation against great heat loss. The same is also true for very hot climates. The gas-filled windows will act as a buffer against soaring temperatures.

Finding windows with low U-factor, the speed at which non-solar heat is conducted through a window, will help better insulate in cooler climates. However, windows with low solar heat gain coefficient, the rate at which solar radiation passes through a window, are best suited for warmer climates with lots of sun.

For environs the feature both extremes, widows rated to be low in both U-factor and solar heat gain are ideal as their versatility will translate to savings. Additionally, you should take note of windows listed all whole-unit in regards to each these ratings.

Equipped with this knowledge, you’ll be best prepared to make the right decisions for which windows to buy for your particular needs, style and taste. From there, sit back and enjoy the savings. As energy inefficient windows account for approximately thirty percent of all energy lost annually, the new windows will pay for themselves within three to four years.
