Replacing old exterior windows with newer ones won’t just improve the look of your home; it will also help save money by reducing your electricity bill. Discover exactly how the installation of new windows reduces energy costs for homeowners across Texas.
New Exterior Windows Keep Cool Air Inside
The high temperatures during a Texas summer can become overwhelming, but air conditioning makes the summers bearable. Unfortunately, maintaining a comfortable temperature often means the air conditioning runs all day, which can dramatically increase electricity bills. This is where new windows can help.
New custom windows crafted specifically for your house will prevent the cool, refreshing air inside your home from leaking outside. If the cold air is kept inside, the air conditioner won’t have to constantly keep running in order to keep your home at your desired temperature. Instead, the air conditioner will be able to cool your house to a specific temperature and maintain it for a period of time. The longer the air conditioning is able to maintain this temperature, the more you save on electricity costs.
New Fixed Windows Insulate a Home
Winters in Texas may not get as cold as they do in the northern part of the country, but they do get chilly. In order to stay warm on these chilly days, people will often heat their homes with a central heating system. Unfortunately, if they have older fixed windows that no longer properly seal the space, they could be faced with a situation similar to what happens with air conditioning.
The warm air in a home will instantly escape through any tiny crack or space created by your windows. If the air escapes through these cracks and gaps, the house is unable to stay at your desired temperature. Every time the temperature dips below the set temperature on your thermostat, the heater will turn on. Each time the heater turns on, more money spent on electricity costs.
New windows help you save on electricity costs by properly insulating your home. The insulation provided by the newer custom windows will keep the heat inside. If the warm air is kept inside, the heater won’t have to work as long or as often to heat your home, therefore helping you save on energy costs.
