Replacement windows are one of the best ideas for upgrading your home and lowering your utility bills.
Many define an “investment” as something that puts money in your pocket. Having said that, replacement windows are an investment, because lower utility bills will put more money in a homeowner’s pocket. The savings will pay for the windows and continue to save on the utility bills long after the windows are paid in full. Now is a good time to consider such an investment with temperatures starting to climb towards their peak in summer.
How much was your July 2022 electrical bill? How much was your January heating bill? After you search the files for these figures, remember that utility costs are NOT trending downward these days. If those numbers were higher than you would like, keep reading this post.
The July number was due in part to the cool air leaking around the old windows and hot air seeping in through the same gaps. This does not even take into account how inefficient the old windows are as a building product. New replacement windows are energy-efficient and can save between 10 and 14 percent on energy bills. The Tri-state area has months of highs in the 80- and 90-degree range, with winters generally in the upper 20s and low 30s.
