Maximizing Home Energy Efficiency

Maximizing Home Energy Efficiency

Windows are a vital part of the home functionality, providing natural light, ventilation, and a connection to the outdoors. However, windows can also be a major source of energy loss, causing your home to become less energy efficient and costing you money on your utility bills. If you have been noticing the increase in your energy bills, we present to you a few ways to minimize the energy loss through your windows in this blogpost.

Invest in energy-efficient windows

Though it seems that leaves fall and the world comes to a stop, dust and debris still accumulate in the windowpane in winter times. The accumulation can lead to air conditioning leaking through the homes, decreasing the home’s energy efficiency over time. Wiping your windowpane regularly, from both the outside and the inside, can prevent the dust buildup from impacting your windowpane. As professionals, we highly recommend wiping your windowpane with water or cleaning solution every month.

Record home’s energy efficiency for checking energy leakage

Energy-efficient windows are designed to help keep the heat inside your home during the winter and the cool air inside during the summer. They are made with special coatings and materials that help to reduce heat transfer and improve insulation. BT Windows & Doors manufacture uses windows with VyCore™ foam insulation in the frame and sash for added insulation. These windows can help to reduce your energy bills and make your home more comfortable all year round.

Seal leaky drafts

Air leaks around your windows can cause drafts, making your home less comfortable and increasing your energy bills. Use caulk or weatherstripping to seal any gaps or cracks around your windows. This will help to keep the cold air out in the winter and the hot air out in the summer.

Consider window replacement

If your windows are old and drafty, it may be time to consider a replacement. New energy-efficient windows can greatly improve the energy efficiency of your home and save you money on your energy bills in the long run. At BT Windows & Doors, our installation guarantees a lifetime manufacturer warranty with the window replacements, making your window replacements a worthy financial decision.

By taking these steps, you can help to minimize the energy loss through your windows and improve the energy efficiency of your home. Not only will this save you money on your energy bills, but it will also make your home more comfortable year-round.
