As homeowners, the cost of energy bills can sometimes catch us off guard.  Both cold winter months and the hot summer season can affect the temperature and comfort inside our homes, causing us to use energy to moderate the temperature. We can help you curb this continual problem of energy loss, making it more comfortable while saving energy. Here’s how. 

Windows Can Be The Culprit

Up to 40% of energy loss can occur at the window. That’s right. Those beautiful windows are the culprit! In the wintertime, the outside is always circulating, up against the glass, influencing the air temperature just inside your home, leading us to turn up our thermostats. In the summer, all that amazing sunlight, pouring in throughout the day, heats up our homes, forcing us to run the AC around the clock. Heating and cooling your home can be costly, but there are even more reasons to be concerned about energy loss at the window.  Let’s take a closer look. 

This view can make your energy bills skyrocket in both the summer and winter.

Other Results of Energy Loss

Energy loss is a burden no matter how you look at it.  It can increase your utility bills, but also affect your lifestyle at home.  We are spending more time at home than ever before these days–have you noticed any patterns developing? Maybe phrases being repeated around your home?

• Who turned up the heat again?
• Do you feel a draft?
• Do we need all the lights on in the house?
• I can’t work in here, it’s too bright.
• I can’t work in here, it’s too dark.

By preventing energy loss, your everyday routine will not be disrupted by these constant inconveniences. Let’s explore different ways to accomplish this.
