Glass windows are one of the most essential parts of any home, as they are seen and used every day. With all the new innovations today, for those who can afford it, windows have become something closer to showpieces or energy-savers than their original purpose of letting daylight into the home. Today’s most popular innovations include saving energy, trapping or excluding heat and Utah replacement windows.
Energy Efficient Windows Energy efficient windows are perhaps the biggest trend in windows right now. People are always looking for ways to save on their electricity bill while still helping the environment. Traditionally, windows have been a major source of both heat loss and gain within homes. New technology, however, means that windows lose less heat, leak less air, and they can also reduce the amount of solar heat gain, while maintaining clear views and source of light.
New materials for frames such as wood composites, vinyl and fiberglass help improve insulation and reduce heat transfer. Low emissivity glass reflects infrared light, keeping the heat inside in the winter, and outside in the summer. They also reflect UV light, protecting your family and furnishings from harm.
Heated Windows Heated windows are still a relatively new innovation. You may have heard of underfloor heating – well now it is available in windows. Heated windows are generally a double-pane glass unit that has three parts – the outer pane with a coating that reflects heat in summer and blocks cold in the winter, krypton (a non toxic insulating gas) between the panes of glass, and a thin coat of metal oxide on the inner window pane. The metal oxide allows an electrical current to run through it, creating a resistance that produces radiant heat. This system can use up to 35% less energy than other heating systems and can be installed in new homes, or retrofitted to existing homes. It is also possible to incorporate the heating element into custom windows or stained glass.
Replacement Windows More and more people are turning to home renovation rather than building new homes. Adding Utah replacement windows has become a popular trend. Old windows are insufficient, and generally make the home look older and more run down that it really it. Replacement windows give an instant lift to the home, and can be the perfect solution to changing the overall style of your home if you have something specific in mind for your renovation project. People usually opt for larger windows in order to maximize natural light, ventilation and views. Larger windows also help decrease the line between indoor and outdoor living, blending the two into one large area.
Prepare your home with large windows for the beautiful fall season, or have your heated windows in place well before the cold winter sets in. Whether you’re building a new home or renovating the home you know and love, glass windows can add the final touch you need to complete any style for any season.
