Sun Reflecting Windows
Who doesn’t love to have their windows wide open with the sun shining through? That’s not always the case when we have old windows which are cracked or which allow harmful UV rays inside. Some people get tinted glass which spoils the views, or keep the blinds shut to prevent sun bleaching or energy loss. We’re here to tell you, you don’t need to hassle with little or no views at all. You too can have a window which is energy efficient even with the blinds wide open. New windows are truly extraordinary. They have properties that no window of the past could offer. One of these amazing qualities is their ability to protect your home from the sun. This works in two ways. Keep reading to learn more about these amazing windows and how they help your home.
Reflecting Energy and Minimizing Cost
Our Windows Reflect the harmful UV rays back outside. This minimizes the energy costs in your home. Old windows let all that heat directed by the sun into your home. This can increase the amount your air conditioner is kicking on in the summer and increase your energy costs. We use a specialty LoE-366 Glass Coating. This works to reflect those harmful UV rays back outside, keeping the inside of your home a more stable room temperature. How this works is that there are three layers of microscopic silver inside the formula to reflect radiant heat back outside.
This coating, which is nearly invisible to the naked eye, stays on the glass for life giving you optimal temperatures inside your home for years to come. Finally, they also keep your home at a more stable room temperature in the winter time as well helping your furnace kick on less.
Prevents Bleaching
Have you ever experienced the awful side effects of bleached furniture and floors? When the sun streams through your windows day in and day out without the protective coatings listed above, it does have adverse effects on the objects inside your home. Your furniture, floor, and even knick-knacks can get bleached by the sun over time. This is a costly expense if you have to remove and replace these objects. Our new Windows have this coating in place to prevent bleached furniture. This coating was engineered to keep out those harmful UV rays outside while still letting all the sunlight stream in effortlessly. You won’t believe what a difference new windows with protective coatings can do for your home.
Old Windows
If you stick with your old windows know that the average cost you are losing through those windows is 25% to 30% in energy loss. The less efficient the window the higher your energy costs will be. Windows which are 20+ years old could be costing you even more than that. If your windows have gone way past their expiration date, we urge you to consider replacing them with new Windows. With all their energy saving properties, you’ll be seeing more money in your pocketbook to spend on what’s really important.

Old windows don’t protect your home from harmful UV rays. In addition, ancient windows could be costing you a ton of money in energy costs.
