The Problem:

According to a recent HUD study 70% of the heat you are paying for, and 46% of your air conditioning is going right outside through your windows and doors, that is only if they are really in good condition.

Are hidden leaks robbing you blind?
Your original windows were probably not designed and built with energy savings in mind. They may be wasting energy three ways:

Infiltration
Conduction
Radiation

Infiltration
1/16 of an inch gap in a standard size window will allow as much air to enter your home as a missing brick in your wall.

Conduction
Conduction wastes three times as much energy as infiltration.

Radiation

Radiation is the movement of energy through space
Air you heat during the winter is radiated to the glass, then outside
In the summer, the sun radiates into your house

25% of total heat loss is caused by radiation through window panes.

Radiation causes your furnaces and air conditioners to work overtime!!

Heat moves to
the coldest area.

You lose 1/2 of
each dollar you spend.
