For just a brief minute, take a look at your windows. How do they look? Is there one pane of glass, or two? This is an important question, because windows with a second pane of glass are a lot more energy-efficient than windows with just a single pane of glass.
Even beyond the obvious advantage of having an additional layer of insulation to protect from the elements and keep indoor air from seeping outside, there is actually an invisible third layer that double pane windows typically have. Double pane windows typically have a layer of gas – usually argon or krypton – that serves as an insulator.
If you’ve noticed that your windows may not be as effective at keeping your home warm (or cool) as they used to be, give us a call. Using thermal imaging, we can easily detect where that gas layer could be leaking out, or if there are other specific zones in the glass that are not performing properly.
