The U-Value of a window is the way that the rate of heat loss is indicated. In these frigid winter months the U-Value can be something that is very important to both your home and your heating bill. The lower the U-Value of a window, the greater the resistance to the cold and the better insulation the window is providing to your house.

Allied Remodeling Corp. uses windows with a stellar U-value. The values are .23 for double pane energy star rated windows and .18 for triple pane energy star rated windows. It is recommended by EnergyStar the rating be less than .30 for our climate, so Allied Remodeling uses windows go above and beyond the recommended level of protection for your home.

As the Efficient Windows Collabortaion states, “The nationally recognized rating method by the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) is for the whole window, including glazing, frame and spacers.” This system considers your complete window in order to ensure a clear reading on the insulation of your home.

Low U-Values help save your family money because the heating bill will be low for your home. The U-Value is also an important component in green living. By expending less energy on heating your home, you can lessen your carbon footprint.
