Windows for Balanced Lighting

While artificial lighting is beneficial for households, natural lighting is still the ideal choice. Natural lighting can relax and calm, improve productivity, and lower stress. You achieve this with the proper use of your windows at home.

Renewal by Andersen® of Westchester lists the ways to pull off this effect.

Reach

The first thing to consider when going for balanced lighting is how to get that natural light into your home. The way to go is to balance between quality and positioning of your Connecticut replacement windows. You want to get windows that suit the task. Picture windows are perfect because their wide panes draw in much light. You can position these in clusters to maximize the light, or these can be spread out for a more subdued effect.

Glare

Even as you manage to bring in more light into your home, be aware of the problem of glare. A single light source focusing from one direction causes glare. Not only is this uncomfortable; it also can be stress inducing and painful to your eyes. A simple way to counteract this is to make sure that lighting comes from two directions. If you are wary about the glare, you can go for our double-hung windows, as these let in light in smaller amounts.

Diffusion

Lastly, you can use your replacement windows in Connecticut in tandem with a few extras to better control the amount of light that filters through. You can choose blinds or curtains. Paired with our sliding windows, these can function unobstructed and unhindered because of the easy motion of their operation. You can also use reflective surfaces to redirect the light.

Apart from bringing in the lighting, our windows are all energy-efficient. Our Fibrex® frames and High-Performance™ Low-E4® panes resist heat transfer across their surface and lower your dependence on artificial climate control. Give Renewal by Andersen of Westchester a call today, and we will be more than happy to find the windows that fit all your home’s needs.
