In our previous blog – we highlighted the important features that go into our decision making when choosing new windows for our homes. In this Windows Blog, A Pane In The Glass Construction will continue to touch upon two more features that we should take into consideration when choosing new or replacement windows in St Louis Park MN for our home remodeling project.
High Efficiency UV Protection: Did you know, that in today’s window market – you can also find windows that have a mechanism to to block out excess damaging UV rays in the Minnesota summer time? Yes! There is a way to still have fresh sunlight coming into your home but the excess UV rays are blocked to limit damage caused to your in-home flooring, curtains and furniture. The glass that is used in these high technology windows contains metal oxide. Metal oxide has the capability to block excess sunlight in the summer, while retaining warmth during extreme Minnesota winter months in St Louis Park MN. This inadvertently, again, helps you save on your HVAC bills as more heat is retained in the winter.
Window Insulation: Were you aware that the glass in double paned windows contains argon gas between the two panes which creates a sort of a vacuum air barrier. This helps to retain heat indoors in the winter months and cool are in the summer months. It is essential, especially if you live in St Louis Park MN, to invest in double paned windows as they have an added benefit of insulation which restricts the free flow of air.
