What are energy-efficient Windows?

Weathersby Windows & Doors proudly carries Milgard Windows which features the ENERGY STAR® label.

ENERGY STAR windows meet the tough Environmental Protection Agency guidelines. ENERGY STAR from Milgard blocks outdoor heat and cold from entering your home and they significantly reduce air leaks.

Newly equipped, heat and sun-reducing windows will decrease your monthly energy bill, keep your art and furniture from fading, and will reduce allergens and other pollutants from entering your home. 

What are the benefits of energy-efficient windows?

Old and tired windows, especially single-pane can be extremely energy inefficient. Gaskets can become worn and torn. The results are high energy bills and an excessively warm or cool home. 

Here are some benefits you'll experience when you replace your old windows with energy-efficient windows:

• Lower energy bills: newer windows keep warm and cold air from entering your home.

• New windows reduce outside noises, so you'll have more quiet where you want it. 

• Advanced design and engineering will bring you stronger windows, so you'll be safer in your home. Most newer-generation windows have easier and stronger locking systems, and impact-resistant glass.

• If you're thinking of selling your home, new state-of-the-art windows will increase the value of your home. 

What are signs that I should replace my windows?

If your windows look foggy and the gasket is warped, that means the outside is creeping inside - time to replace your windows!

If you're tired of the hot and cold not staying outside, newer generation double-pane windows will keep the extreme temperatures outside where they belong. There is no debate about the inefficiency of older engineered windows and their inability to keep your home comfortable.
