The materials used for your home builds matter, from flooring to windows, especially in Florida’s extreme heat. Windows are a structural part of a home and have potential to enhance the home’s energy efficiency and reduce homeowner’s energy consumption.
“Energy efficient windows are an important consideration for both new and existing homes. Heat gain and heat loss through windows are responsible for 25%–30% of residential heating and cooling energy use.” - Energy.gov
