DOOR, WINDOWS

& ENERGY

Windows and doors can be a big source of energy loss if they’re not properly treated. If you are looking to buy with an energy-efficiency eyev consider the following: Are the casings wood or metal? Because of their conductivity, metal window casings are less energy efficient than wood unless there’s a thermal break between the two layers of metal.

Are the windows single-, double-, or triple-glazed for better protection from radiant heat? Are there storm doors or weather entries that buffer heat or cold? Is there a lot of glass on or near the southern and western exposure? This could lead to higher cooling bills in the summer. Are cracks and crevices around the windows and doors sealed and is there weather stripping? Weather stripping is easy to see. These items may seem minor, but could save you future monthly expenses.
