Exploring the Best Windows for Colder Climates

What is it that makes Windows good for cold climates?

If you want your windows to work well in your climate, not just for their good looks and ease of operation, you must choose them accordingly. Certain features improve the efficiency of windows during the winter months.

The energy efficiency of a window frame is influenced by the material it is made of. If the material you prefer is constructed correctly, it can be efficient in cold weather.

In cold climates, single-paned windows are ineffective. By slowing heat transfer through the glass, double and triple pane windows reduce energy losses.

When you fill the gaps between the glass with gas, the window efficiency increases. The gases are denser than air and slow heat transfer.

All windows need spacers to keep the glass a consistent distance apart. When non-conductive materials are used, they reduce condensation and help slow heat transfer.

When air leaks in around a window frame, it lowers the temperature in the house and raises the heating bills. To minimize this, look for replacement windows that have a small air infiltration rate.

A window's effectiveness at preventing heat loss is determined by the U factor.

For the best insulation, look for ratings as low as possible.

The rating for the high solar heat gain coefficient is between 0 and 1. The sun can heat your home in the winter if you have a higher SHGC. If you want to counter this effect in the summer, you can draw curtains over windows in the afternoon.

In both hot and cold climates, low E coating is beneficial. Your furnace doesn't have to work as hard if you add it to the outer side of the innermost pane of glass.

Storm windows are installed in the winter to improve thermal efficiency. You can remove them in the summer.

Weather Shield can keep your home warm in the winter or cool in the summer. The window brand strikes the perfect balance between summer performance and winter efficiency for better home comfort and lower energy bills all year.
