Energy-Efficient Windows
Hoping to save energy and save some money? North County Window and Door can help you.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, leaky and inefficient windows, skylights and doors account for up to 25 percent of the average household's energy bill. Some sources estimate that number to be as high as 40 percent. A lot depends on where you live:
Cold climates lose energy in the form of heat
Hot climates lose energy in the form of cooling
Nearly everyone can benefit from replacing leaky, inefficient windows with modern energy-efficient windows. Depending on your location, you can cut energy costs by as much as 15 percent. Plus, in 2011, the government is issuing a Tax Credit when you purchase qualifying energy-efficient windows. Learn more here.
