Sherman Oaks Energy Efficiency Experts Serving Sherman Oaks

Buildings lose and gain heat through their windows. However, well-sealed dual pane windows allow your home to be more efficient, quieter, and reduce your energy bills. The thermal envelope includes, among others, the windows and doors which directly affect the house’s heating and cooling loads. Having well-sealed dual pane windows installed by our professionals ensure the house’s thermal envelope is tightened. We recommend and install mostly Vinyl window frames which keep sunlight from breaking down the material and have a good moisture and thermal resistance. We also install Aluminum window frames with thermal break to reduce the heat flow, when applicable. Wood window frames insulate well, however, they do expand and contract in response to weather conditions; therefore, they require regular maintenance. Low emissivity glass, also known as low-E glass and low Solar Heat Gain (SHGC) assist in controlling heat transfer to reduce energy loss.
