How Much Energy Do Old Patio Doors Waste?
We in Colorado love our outdoor living. We love hosting bbq’s, planting gardens, or even sitting around our outdoor fire pit. The gateway to all of these things is our patio door. Our patio doors offer us a view to the outside world. But these sliding patio doors have large viewing windows which, if more than 15 years old, are real energy-zappers that can drive up your heating bills in the winter and suck energy in the summer. Nearly 15% of your home’s energy can escape through your sliding glass door alone. Inefficient doors can really suck the fun out of your pocketbook. You could spend significantly more on your energy costs than you would even think. After the last freeze, it’s a great time to consider replacing your patio door. Nobody needs to be paying to heat the outside, and you don’t need your furnace coming on every five seconds.
