Investing in energy-efficient windows offers many benefits, such as reduced energy costs and increased comfort in your home. If you need energy-saving windows, then it is essential to learn a thing or two about them.
Let Tittle Brothers Construction discuss some of the things you should know about energy saving windows.
Low-E
Low-E stands for low emissivity, which refers to the window’s ability to reflect heat. This is due to a thin metallic substance applied on the glass surface, serving as a special coating. Our partnership with Pella® allows us to provide energy-saving windows in Birmingham. They come with Low-E glass, which can reduce heat transfer in and out of your home. This will keep you from overworking your HVAC units, reducing your energy bills.
Frame Materials
We offer a wide range of window materials such as vinyl, fiberglass, and wood, each having their own selling point. Our vinyl Birmingham windows provide good insulation and are easy to maintain. You only need to use mild soap and water to clean them. Our fiberglass is similar to our vinyl windows, as they offer superior insulation and have low-maintenance qualities. In addition, they are durable and offer the beauty of painted wood. Our elegant wood windows, on the other hand, come with a special coating, which protects them against moisture, reducing the need for maintenance.
Glazing and Gas-Fills
Glazing refers to the glass used in the window. Meanwhile, argon or krypton gases are used to fill the space between glass panes to improve insulation. Each of our replacement windows in Birmingham features either dual or triple glazing and are filled with insulating argon. They can block a huge amount of the sun’s UV rays, preventing damage to your carpets and drapes.
