Energy Efficiency: What You Need to Know in an Ever-Changing Climate

With rising temperatures and fluctuating weather patterns, achieving energy efficiency and UV protection for windows has become essential for maintaining a comfortable indoor environment and controlling energy costs. Windows are a major source of solar heat gain, allowing sunlight to raise indoor temperatures during summer, and heat loss, making it harder to retain warmth in colder months. This inefficiency forces HVAC systems to work overtime, increasing energy consumption and utility bills. Traditional solutions, like installing energy-efficient windows, can help but are often expensive and labor-intensive, particularly for retrofitting older homes where structural modifications may be needed.

UV protection for windows offered by SecureView™ are an affordable and effective alternative. SecureView's™ advanced options provide excellent UV blocking capabilities without the need for extensive renovations. This retrofit system from Glass House Security reduces heat gain by blocking harmful UV rays, protect interiors from fading, and improve overall energy efficiency. By retrofitting existing windows with SecureView™ homeowners can enjoy enhanced comfort, lower energy bills, and long-lasting protection for their property—all without compromising the view or aesthetics of their space. Our solutions are perfect for UV protection but also for tackling challenges like forced entry, sound attenuation, and storm protection.
