Investing in Thermal Envelope Improvements

Drafty windows degrade a home’s thermal efficiency. Replacing old, single-pane units lowers carbon footprints and keeps temperature profiles stable.

Cost Factors

  • Double-Hung Vinyl Windows: $500 to $900 per window installed.
  • Wood Clad Windows: $900 to $1,400 per window installed.

Annual Utility Payback

Installing Energy Star certified double-pane windows saves homeowners an average of $150 to $450 per year on heating and cooling bills, yielding a 10% to 15% annual return on energy investments.
