Save money with Window World windows

The type of windows you have in your home can impact your household budget and environment.
If you have old, drafty windows, chances are a lot of your heat or cooled air is escaping, costing you money on your energy bills and polluting the environment. Replacing your windows with energy efficient products from Window World of Siouxland can save you up to 35 percent on heating and cooling costs and protect the environment. Last year, Window World saved consumers $500 million in energy costs.
Window World windows are already designed for superior thermal performance, but the SolarZone Insulated Glass Packages offered by Window World take windows to a whole new level. Window World's SolarZone Insulated Glass Packages feature Low-E glass, argon gas and a warm-edge spacer system, so you can reduce your energy use even more, while helping cut consumption of the fossil fuels that pollute our environment. Window World offers many ENERGY STAR qualified glass packages.
SolarZone Insulated Glass Packages are so effective because they combine UV-filtering Low-E glass, insulating argon and a warm-edge spacer system to create significant energy efficiency. Together they can cut damaging UV energy, which can lead to fading of carpets, curtains and furniture by more than 75 percent.
These insulated glass packages have proven to be far more effective than ordinary clear glass units. The National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC), in conjunction with the U.S. Department of Energy, developed a rating system for window product performance.
One of the most critical NFRC tests is for the window's U-Value, which measures a window's resistance to heat transfer. The lower the U-Value, the better the window is at resisting heat flow, which results in a window with a greater insulating value. Another critical NFRC test measures the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC). This procedure measures how well a window blocks heat caused by sunlight. Again, the lower the number, the less of the sun's solar heat the window transmits into the home.
The center of glass U-value of SolarZone Insulating Glass is 50 percent better than standard insulating glass. In summer, up to a 58 percent reduction in solar heat gain helps reduce air conditioning costs. The result: SolarZone Insulated Glass Packages can help you save on energy and cooling costs while keeping your home more comfortable.
While you're enjoying the comfort that Window World windows provide, you can also feel good knowing that they conserve natural resources. The materials used to make every Window World window sash and mainframe are 100 percent recyclable, making it easy to go green.
Window World's windows result in less waste and more product because they are made of vinyl, which can be reprocessed and recycled repeatedly. Vinyl windows are recognized as an enviromentally preferable product because the leading component in the production of vinyl is common salt, an inert natural resource. In addition, vinyl window products weigh less than other substrate window products, requiring less energy consumption during transportation.
Their windows are also durable, another environmental advantage. The longer a product lasts, the less energy and other resources must be used to make replacement products.
Window World windows benefit your home environment as well. The warm-edge spacer systems available in Window World windows are up to 16 degrees warmer at the edge of the insulated glass unit, making them more efficient than standard metal spacers. This in turn helps to reduce condensation, which leads to mold and an unhealthy environment.
The reduced maintenance required by Window World windows means no painting, staining or stripping - ever. Many paints, stains and stripping agents release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the atmosphere, which contribute to atmospheric pollutant levels.
If you would like your home to go green, it's as easy as choosing quality vinyl windows such as Window World windows. They meet the high standards and criteria set by the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building System to encourage and accelerate green building practices across the building industry.
Window World is committed to being green and helping you create a home that will provide beauty and security for a lifetime of enjoyment.
In addition to being energy efficient and green, Window World windows are visually pleasing and easy to operate. The windows' beautiful lines flow into the rest of the home, improving its aesthetics and adding curb appeal.
When you add curb appeal with new Window World windows, you increase the value of your home. According to Remodeling Magazine's 2010-2011 Cost vs. Value Report, vinyl windows recoup an average of 71 percent of the initial investment...making this a home improvement project that pays in both comfort and return.
Window World's windows have earned the Good Housekeeping Seal, a symbol of quality that will give you even greater peace of mind.
With Window World, you get a superior product at guaranteed low prices. Check into their other money saving products including garage doors and entry doors.
