Does Window Replacement Offer Potential Savings? Here's What to Know

The link between replacing windows and improved energy savings is one that has been argued vehemently for years by everyone from politicians to part-time bloggers. Simply doing a search on Google will provide you with enough articles on the topic to make your head spin.

Unfortunately, this reaction is also one that is felt by most homeowners who are thinking about updating their windows with newer, more energy efficient windows. In fact, many are often left questioning whether the investment is really worth it.

In such cases, it is essential to provide your new windows prospects with the facts versus the fiction that’s so commonly shared by certain parties. This makes for a more informed buyer and gives them a better understanding about what they should expect in terms of energy savings and value after replacing their windows. Here’s what to tell your clients about energy savings and window replacement.

Expected Energy Savings From Replacing Single Pane Windows

If your client has single pane windows on their home, then they can stand to enjoy a significant energy savings simply by having them replaced with double pane windows. But how much should they expect?

According to the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) EnergyStar program, depending on the region, replacing single pane windows with double pane windows will allow the homeowner to save between $101 to $583 per year in energy savings and prevent up to 6,205 pounds of CO2 (which is equivalent to 51 to 317 gallons of gasoline) from entering the environment. But depending on certain factors, such as the type of replacement glass chosen and whether new panes are being installed instead of having new glass installed in pre-existing panes, their true savings could be as much as 50 percent.

Even replacing double pane windows with newer windows can provide a sizable energy savings of up to $197 per year, as well as up to 2,001 pounds of CO2, which is equivalent to up to 102 gallons of gasoline.

For those seeking the highest amount of energy savings, it is therefore recommended to have old windows and panes replaced with modern energy efficient windows utilizing superior glass and pane materials. By replacing the entirety of the window, it also allows any gaps in insulation to be filled completely, thus reducing air loss even further.

Additional Benefits of Choosing EnergyStar Windows

Both summer and winter can be especially hard on a home’s interior when it has old windows. In summer, a standard double pane window allows as much as 75 percent of the sun’s heat into the home, and this “heat gain” can cause the air conditioner to run much more frequently.

Likewise, in winter, a poorly insulated window pulls heat away from the body, causing one to feel chilly even with the thermostat set at 70 degrees.

But when these old windows are replaced with EnergyStar windows, summer’s heat gain is substantially reduced without reducing the visible light, and in winter, the interior glass stays warmer, so the body does as well.

Besides making the home feel more comfortable year-round, EnergyStar windows also protect the homeowner’s valuables and furnishings. For instance, things like photographs, drapes, carpets, and fabric furniture can suffer from fading and discoloring when exposed to unfiltered direct sunlight. EnergyStar windows feature specialized coatings that filter out the damaging rays of the sun, so your client can enjoy natural light without having to worry about the detrimental effects that it can have on valuables.

Additional new window selling points that your client will appreciate can include:

Outside noises are dramatically reduced
Frost and condensation are reduced or eliminated
Views are better from both curbside, and from the indoors looking out
Curb appeal is improved
Home value is increased
