We know that your home is one of your greatest investments, and you need to consider all of the factors involved when it comes time to upgrade the essential features of your house. One project that offers a high return on investment is replacing outdated, drafty, and inefficient windows, but you may be surprised by the benefits that you actually receive with this fairly common home update!
Most homeowners think about the standard benefits that come with new windows when deciding to take the leap in a window replacement, from adding impressive curb appeal to getting rid of the hassle of high-maintenance or sticky windows. But, what if we told you that replacing your windows will actually help save you money? With help from WindowWorks, we can ensure that you get new windows that do more than you thought possible—starting with lowering your monthly heating and cooling costs!
How Replacement Windows Can Save You Money
There are a lot of different factors that go into a high-quality replacement window, and not all windows are created equally. The first step to saving money with new windows is to choose a product that comes with high-tech features designed for improved thermal efficiency, including:
- Multi-pane glass
- Low-E coatings
- Argon gas-filled chambers
- Durable weather seals
These different features all work together to help keep your home at a stable temperature, even in the most extreme weather conditions. By reducing the heat gain and loss from your windows, your heating and cooling system gets a break and doesn’t have to run constantly to fight to maintain the ideal temperature in your home.
How does that translate to you saving money?
The less that your heating and cooling systems have to run, the lower your overall utility costs! In fact, our energy-efficient windows can reduce the average energy bills of a Chicago homeowner by 25-30%. That equates to saving $3,600 over five years!
However, lowered energy costs aren’t the only way that you save money by installing efficient windows in your home. With the innovative products that we offer, you may also be eligible for ENERGY STAR tax credits that can give you money back on the overall cost of your home improvement project.
With today’s changing economy and fluctuating home market, keeping more money in your pocket and ensuring that your home retains its value is important to homeowners throughout the country. With the pros at WindowWorks, we can show you how much you have to gain from choosing high-quality, energy-efficient windows, and getting more information is an easy process.
