Make your ho less expensive t
You don't have to build a solar home to
have a house that is energy- efficient.
There are a variety of building products
on the market today that can make your
home less expensive to heat and cool.
As an energykconscious homeowner,
you're likely to have already invested in in-
sulation and storm doors. But, you may not
realize that windows can be the single
largest cause of energy loss in the American
home!
If your windows are, indeed, the culprit,
you should consider replacing them with
new therilally efficient solid vinyl windows.
Sturdy and virtually maintenance -free,
solid vinyl replacement windows offer many
advantages that simply aren't available
with other types of windows.
Take, for example, the chambered profile
design engineered into each Certain Tweed
window lineal,. This special design creates
dead air pockets -that result in reduced heat
and/or cold transfer between a home's in-
terior and exterior.
These chambers also add structural
strength to the window. They virtually
- eliminate _condensation around the frame at
normal tumidity levels.
Another feature of the Certain Teed win-
dow is. the double -pane sealed insulated
glass with a 7 -inch dead air space. In com-
BUNINIEMI
bination with the chambered frame, the
double -pane configuration provides greater
thermal efficiency for better comfort year
round.
•
In effect, the double -pane design serves as
a prime and storm window combination.
But, in contrast to traditional systems, vinyl
replacement windows have virtually
eliminated the need for storm windows.
To cushion the window glass for a
weather -tight fit, the manufacturer uses
wraparound, flexible vinyl, marine -type
glazing. This means no more dry, cracking
putty around the glass that periodically has
to be repaired or replaced.
