Heating and Cooling Efficiency

It is estimated that 40% of our home heat in the winter is lost through our window glass. The same problem exists in the summer; the windows allow the cool air to go outside and the hot air to come inside. With the right custom window treatments, this heat loss can be cut down substantially.

Unfortunately, glass has not changed in over a thousand years which means the R-Value of glass has not changed either. While the addition of a second glass increases the R-Value, the air space that is created between the two also increases the R-Value. A gas is sometimes added between the two panes for even more insulation. Both panes, the air space, the gas inside still give a very low R-Value.

With the right linings and interlinings, the R-Value of your windows can be increased by up to 300%. In these hard economic times, saving a substantial amount of money on heating and cooling bills can be a welcome event. Shop energy efficient curtains on Amazon

    Any individual who drives a vehicle realizes that specific autos utilize less gas than others. The same is valid for warming hardware and like gas-swallowing SUVs, some warming frameworks expend tremendous measures of fuel. http://grahammanufacturing.com/
