Windows are an important part of our homes. They offer a four season view of the world outside and bring warm natural light in. But old or inferior windows don’t just diminish the attractiveness of your home. They also come with a price, as a significant source of heat loss and drafts. You’ll often find condensation or even frost on poor-performing windows during cold weather, with rot and mould a possible result.
The benefits of properly installed new, energy-efficient windows are clear as glass:
- Reduced energy consumption, benefitting us all and saving you money
- Increased comfort without chilly drafts
- Reduced condensation on glass in cold weather
- Reduced noise and dust penetration from outside the home
According to Natural Resources Canada, homeowners who replace all their old windows and doors with energy-efficient products will typically save about 7% on their energy bills, depending on how many they replace, how old the windows were and how much air leakage they allowed.
Buyers of new homes can save about 16% on their energy bills by purchasing energy-efficient windows and doors over what they would pay with standard products. The savings are greater because new homes are typically larger, with more glass.
