In many parts of the country, it’s getting increasingly difficult to keep your home comfortable in the winter and cool during the summer. This is because energy costs have been going up over time. Fortunately, there are some ways that you can save on your monthly bills for both heating and cooling by installing vinyl replacement windows in your home. These windows are not only affordable but they also help with saving energy costs long-term since they provide better insulation than traditional window frames do.
The blog post will go on to talk about how vinyl windows offer a variety of benefits such as providing better insulation which helps reduce utility bills and their easy maintenance features make them a great option.
Are vinyl windows eco-friendly?
You are expending environmental resources anytime you maintain a product. Harsh cleaners, paint, stain, sealants, and other chemicals are relied on for maintaining and repairing other types of window materials. And don’t forget the amount of water needed to regularly clean them – especially when wanting to clear away those toxic chemicals! Vinyl is incredibly easy to upkeep with no need for scraping or painting which means it’s sustainable too. All you have to do is give your windows some simple cleaning every once in a while (a splash of soap mixed with water).
Are energy efficient windows worth it?
According to the U.S Department of Energy, energy-efficient windows can save you tons in your pocket depending on where you live and what kind of window replacement project is done for your home. Single pane glass window replacements will save an average individual $126 – 465 per year whereas double panes with a clear tint offers up to $111 yearly savings!
According to research by the US Department of Energy (USDOE), replacing single-pane windows yields significant cost saving benefits that vary based on region (saving as much as $465 annually). On top this, adding a second pane or using “energy efficient” options may increase these annual savings even more ($27).
