Need to Save Energy This Winter? Get New Windows!
As energy prices continue to soar, you might be looking for some ways to keep your heating bill down this winter. While you might be tempted to turn your thermostat down and huddle up under some cozy blankets, there is something else that you can do to keep yourself comfortable during frigid months: Replace outdated windows.
Did you know that you can lose 30% of your home’s heat through old and drafty windows? If your home sports outdated single-pane windows, then upgrading to modern, energy saving windows can go a long way toward saving energy—and money—for years to come.
What Is Energy Efficient Windows?
As the name suggests, energy efficient windows are made with energy conservation in mind. While that’s easy to understand on the surface, you might be wondering what makes a window energy efficient. For a window to meet ENERGY STAR standards, they must come with the following features:
- Double- or Triple-Pane Glass
- Low-E Glass Coating
- Gas Fill Between Windowpanes
- Insulating Window Frames
- Window Seals and Spacers
Can Energy Efficient Windows Reduce Heating Costs?
Yes! According to a 2023 report by the Department of Energy, homeowners save between $101 and $583 per year on heating and cooling costs after replacing single-pane windows with double-pane windows. When you get high-performance windows that offer all the features listed above, you can save even more. Not many remodels pay for themselves overtime, so energy efficient windows is one investment that you will be glad to make.

Derrick installed our new shower. We have a very small bathroom and he did a great job. He keep me informed through every step of the project. He cleaned up after and provided me with instructions. I would strongly recommend Home Pro of Spring Lake for all of your needs. I'm hoping to get the windows done next.
Colin and Jeremy did an excellent job on new shower. The bathroom is brighter and new fan is quieter. They where very friendly and worked around my needs.
