ENERGY COSTS
Keep the warm air in during the winter and the cool air
in during the summertime drives those energy bills
down. WeatherLok products are constructed to exceed
current and future Energy Star codes and
maintain some of the highest
insulating values in the industry.

WHY OLD STYLE WINDOWS
WASTE ENERGY?
RADIATION
•Heat radiates to cool
•In the winter, heat radiates
through your windows
•In the summer, the sun
radiates into your home
•25% of heat loss is caused by
radiation through window
panes

WHY OLD STYLE WINDOWS
WASTE ENERGY?
INFILTRATION
•A gap or crack as small as
1/16 inch will allow as much
air to enter your home as a
full brick missing from your
wall
•An average home with
12 windows now has a hole
in the wall about the size of
12 missing bricks

WHY OLD STYLE WINDOWS
WASTE ENERGY?
CONDUCTION
•Heat naturally moves to
the coolest area through
all matter
•Conduction wastes about
3 times more energy than
infiltration

WHY
LOW-E GLASS
TECHNOLOGY?
It is a virtually invisible
layer of silver on one side
of the glass that reflects
radiant solar energy while
permitting light to pass
Low-E glass
reduces heat gain
from the sun in the
summer, keeping
your home cooler.
In the winter,
Low-E glass lets the
warm solar rays in
while blocking the
heat in your home
from getting out.
Low-E (Emissivity) glass technology helps your rooms stay cooler in
the summer and warmer in the winter, thus saving on energy costs

Argon gas is an inert, odorless
and colorless gas that is denser
and heavier than air
WHY ADD
ARGON GAS
TO LOW-E
GLASS
PANELS?

• Argon insulation gas works like a blanket
between two panes of glass to further
improve thermal efficiency
• Saves even more valuable energy dollars
• It also reduces outside noise from
entering your home

Energy Star
Climate Zone Map
• The program is tailored to meet the energy
needs of the country’s four different climate
regions and help consumers identify
energy efficient windows and doors
• Energy Star® labeled windows and doors
are 40% more efficient than products
required under most common national
building codes
• Your WeatherLok windows will meet or
exceed the Energy Star criteria
