It is time to thaw out and recover from the winter's heating bills, the forecast this summer is calling for high energy bills as well. This makes spring a great time to make your home more cost efficient. One great money saving tip is to replace your windows.
Most don't realize that 45% of heat and air conditioning can go out the window if they are worn or not fitted correctly. Check and see how old your windows are, if they are over 20 years- that is a good sign that they should be replaced. If you have faulty windows, you are throwing money out the window when heat and air conditioning escape. You need properly fitted windows to protect the heat and air from escaping.
This is the time of year to check and see if you have leaky windows. An easy test to see if you have leaky windows is to light a candle and place it along the edge of the window, if it flickers or goes out that is a good sign that the windows have a leak.
Replacing windows now can save you on soaring energy costs before the summer heat arrives.
