“GREEN WINDOWS ARE THE FUTURE OF CONSTRUCTION

“GREEN WINDOWS ARE THE FUTURE OF CONSTRUCTION

“Energy efficient windows are an important consideration for both new and existing homes. Heat gain and heat loss through windows are responsible for 25%–30% of residential heating and cooling energy use.”

–      U.S. Department of Energy (consumer resource)

Why Go Green?

The construction industry as a whole has seen some major shifts in recent years. New standards and regulations are part of these green changes, but there’s a real demand to back it up.

According to the Canada Green Building Council, there are four main reasons homeowners are turning to green building practices:

  1. Health
  2. Comfort
  3. Cost-savings
  4. Increased resale value

When you add them up, these benefits far outweigh the costs of green technology. In fact, this technology is quickly becoming the standard in the industry. Often, there are also extra cost-savings in the form of grants and incentives for homeowners and commercial building owners.

Renovations & Repairs

While new construction is “going green,” it doesn’t mean that people in older homes can’t get the same benefits. When it comes time to replace big impact items like your windows and doors, you can choose the most energy-efficient options and have them installed with sustainability in mind.
