Why are so many people replacing their
windows?
Conduction
Conduction occurs when heat travels through solid objects. In a home, conduction is the most important factor in terms of energy loss.
Loose-fitting, leaky windowswaste energy and money
A 1/16” gap around a window = 1 brick
12 windows with 1/16” gaps = 12 bricks
Air InfiltrationAir infiltration occurs when the window frames and sash don’t fit tightly, leaving small gaps around the window. These gaps may be small, but they can cost you big money in energy bills.
Solar Heat GainSolar heat gain is the movement of energy through space. Thesun’s rays come down into yourhome, thus causing heat gainwhich increases your air conditioning costs. Exposure tosunlight can cause prematurefading of: Carpet Fabrics Artwork Draperies Walls
CondensationCondensation is the build-up ofmoisture on the glass panes andoccurs when moist, warm air meets a colder surface. It
supports mold and bacteria growth. Condensation can damage:• Windows• Walls• Trim • Draperies

ENERGY STAR®®
ENERGY STAR®® is an independent governmentprogram labeling the energy efficiency of various products. Because the United States covers such a large area, ENERGY STAR®® guidelineshave been tailored to meet three specific regions. These regions are established for the window program.
Energy Star
U-Factor Solar Heat GainNorth .35 None
Central .40 .55
Southern .75 .40
To be labeled as an ENERGY STAR®® product, the U-factor and SHGC rating must be less than or equal to those establishedby ENERGY STAR®®.
NFRC RatingU-Factor is themeasurement of howmuch heat escapes through the product. The lower the U-factor,the better the productprevents heat from escaping.
Solar Heat Gain Coefficient is a measurement of thesun-shielding propertiesof the product and itsability to absorb orreflect Solar heat. The lower the SHGC,the better the productis at protecting againstheating causedby sunlight.Visible Trans is how Much light you cansee coming throughthe window.
