What Homeowners Need to Know:

  • Save yearly: energy efficient replacement windows can save over $500 a year by switching from single to triple pane. Schedule a free in-home estimate.
  • Lower U-factor: triple pane reaches a 0.20 to 0.30 U-value versus 0.30 to 0.45 for double pane.
  • Edge sealing: warm-edge spacers and argon gas fill slow heat loss at the glass edges, as this energy efficient window options guide explains.
  • Pro priority: 87% of window pros rank thermal performance as a top factor.
