Bringing in More Natural, Healthy Sunlight

Now that the sun has decided to grace us with its presence once more, you can begin opening up the blinds or the drapes and filling your home with more natural, healthy light. Letting more natural light into your home is a simple way to improve energy efficiency by lowering the amount of electric light needed to light each room. But if you have older windows, that light could end up doing more damage than good.

Most older windows are fitted with glass that does nothing to block out the harmful aspects of sunlight. UV rays can cause fading in furniture and rugs and can even lead to health problems over time. IR, or infrared rays, will gradually raise the temperature in a room, causing your cooling systems to work harder and harder to stabilize the temperature in your home. By replacing your older windows with newer models, you can limit the penetration of both UV and IR rays and improve both the look and feel of your home.
