Industry Standards for Energy Efficient Windows

How to Compare Energy Efficient Windows
When it comes to replacing home windows, the most important feature for most homeowners is energy efficiency.

There are three industry standards of window treating to consider.

	Argon Gas is probably the best-known energy saving feature. Though its insulation value has been surpassed by other techniques, many homeowners still select Argon because it's a known product.
	Low E is a more effective efficiency treatment. The process involves a silver compound sprayed on the inside of double paned windows to reflect back heat.
	Better still is Low E2, the newest version of Low E technology. It was discovered if you applied the Low E treatment to a window a second time you more than doubled the efficiency quotient of the window.
	Window Tinting improves energy efficiency of windows by reducing solar heat gain in the summer. Tinted windows also reduce fading of rugs, carpets, art, window coverings and other home decorations and furnishings by reducing the strong rays that cause fading.
