This results in a low added insulation value that comes with an additional window. Interior-storm windows are generally sealed whereas the exterior ones are not. The thermal performance of these windows is the result of creating a pocket of dead air between the primary and storm windows. It does this by acting as a second window that helps to drive rainwater, buffer winds, and even repel outdoor noise. Storm windows supplement the thermal performance of old single-pane, primary windows. In this blog, we’ll highlight a few reasons why it’s so important to have storm windows installed in your home.
Storm windows are also built with sturdy materials that protect old windows and homes from dangerous weather conditions. Whether it’s the middle of summer or winter, installing storm windows provides homeowners with a number of benefits including lowering energy bills and preventing poor insulation.Īccording to the U.S Department of Energy, storm windows are effective in reducing the air movement flowing in and out of homes which increases comfort and reduces cooling and heating costs. There is no “perfect” time or season to install storm windows.
