Rising Energy Costs?
Look no further than your energy bill for help recognizing when to replace your windows. If rising heating or cooling costs can’t be explained by a rise in rates, the issue might stem from poorly insulated or installed windows.
Among other benefits, energy efficient windows reduce the rate of heat transfer, keeping warm air where you need it. Not only does this help maintain a more comfortable environment, it reduces strain on your heating system.
Single-Pane Windows?
If your home still uses single-pane windows, you could experience a significant increase in energy efficiency and interior comfort by switching to dual- or triple-glazed models. Adding an extra pane of glass boosts insulation, reducing the flow of air and noise. This buffer can be further insulated with argon or krypton gas. When it’s time to replace your windows, consider upgrading to triple-glazed windows to see the biggest boost in performance.
Air Draft / Poor Performance?
Drafty windows can be a sign of a poor product or poor installation. Whatever the cause, the effect is unpleasant and potentially costly if it pushes your heating and cooling bill higher as you try to compensate.
Over time, the seal between a window’s frame and its sash can start to fail. This may also result in air leakage, and in some cases water will accumulate in and around the window, leading to mold.
Mold and Condensation?
Mold is not only unsightly, it can lead to serious health complications such as child asthma and general respiratory illness. Condensation is a common cause of mold growth in and around windows, indicating either a lack of insulation or a poor installation job.
At Vinyl-Pro we use the warm-edge Super Spacer to resist condensation in all of our windows. In addition to improving thermal efficiency, this dual-seal system acts as a moisture vapour seal along the edge of the glass, which is the area most susceptible to heating and cooling loss. Over time that transfer of air can produce condensation and, ultimately, mold.
We also fusion weld the corners of our windows to create a watertight and airtight surface.
