Summer temperatures are soaring and so is the cost of electricity to cool your home. What’s the solution? Replacement windows were highlighted on recent a Today Show rundown of potential “summer energy savings.”
NBC’s Christine Romans pointed out that new windows can be one of the best upgrades to add to your home’s energy efficiency – and save you money on air conditioning and heating bills.
She said summer energy bills have risen 39.4% since 2020 and cited hotter summers and rising electricity costs during the July 14th broadcast.
Romans rightly said, “You can save a little bit every month if you have windows that are better sealed.”
“Look now if you’re thinking of upgrading your windows,” she said, noting that spring and fall are great times to replace your windows.

Watch the story from NBC’s TODAY Show:
We all count on windows to let in light, fresh air and warmth from the sun. The quality of windows in a home can really contribute to its level of energy efficiency – or lack of it.
High-quality, properly-installed windows improve energy efficiency all year long.
Just as we aim to turn off lights before leaving a room, or adjust the thermostat when leaving for work, installing and maintaining energy-efficient windows can make a significant difference in your home – and your wallet.
Air conditioning or heat can easily escape a home through older, less advanced glass. It’s possible to minimize this effect, and the price tag associated with it, by replacing older windows with new, energy efficient windows that are properly installed.
All the windows custom-manufactured at the Wallside Windows factory contain a Low-E - or low emissiveity - technology.
In any season, energy efficient windows ensure a safer, more comfortable and environmentally-friendly home. Low-E glass will help regulate temperatures inside the home that keep families comfortable despite the weather outside.
Installing windows made to keep heat in during the winter and out during the summer is good for your home, and the environment.
During the hot summer months, Low-E coated glass deflects sunlight to keep hot air outside and protect cooler air indoors. New windows also happen to be simpler to maintain, keep clean, and open easily to let fresh air into the home when the weather is nice.
The coating technology for Low-E glass uses safe and pure minerals like silver, titanium and zinc, applied in layers on raw glass. Come winter, it ensures heat is sealed indoors. It’s the perfect way to minimize cooling and heating costs at home. Homeowners can live comfortably in the confidence they are minimizing energy usage.
