Double Pane Windows are Better than Single Pane

As the climates around us are quickly changing, our windows can make a huge difference on how much we will pay for our heating and cooling bills. The proper windows can save around 10% on your yearly bill. Having double pane windows installed can save you money. Single pane windows can be very drafty and let the heat escape out of them.

If you are in the market, make sure to ask the window installers for energy star windows. These windows may be able to save an extra 5% over other double pane windows. A typical replacement window will set you out some good money. They range from 300 to 900 dollars each. Multiply that by however many you are replacing and that may not be such a good investment.

If you have the money to replace those old windows, go for it. If you really don’t have the money, then look into storm windows. Generally speaking storm windows cost between $60 and $100. Most of the time you can put the window covers in yourself. Next time you feel a draft blowing in your house, go and save some money and get yourself some replacements.
