Everyone knows that windows are one of the biggest sources of heat gain and loss in your home. Using the right window treatment can save you energy and money.
We provide the highest quality energy saving
window treatments in Sacramento. Our Polywood® Shutter Insulating System has superior thermal resistance, the best reduction of heat transfer, and offers the most energy efficiency of all the window treatments in the industry. And, when coupled with Solar Gard window film,
Polywood shutters are the prime choice for the highest savings on your energy bills.
The Polywood Shutter Insulation System
Shutters are the most energy-efficient window treatment. And our
Polywood shutters, with their advanced insulation system, are the best energy saving
shutters in Sacramento – if not the US.
We carefully construct every part of our Polywood Shutters, keeping energy efficiency in mind to give you the most energy savings. The exclusive solid polymer material Polywood is made from is thick enough to block air flow. This results in shutters that are a natural insulator. Polywood shutters block more light and temperature than any other shutter because of their patented weather stripping on the sides of each shutter panel. This greatly limits heat transfer around the panels in both the heat of summer and the cold of winter in Sacramento. Add to that a heat-reflective paint, and you have a shutter that is not only timeless but also extremely energy efficient. As a matter of fact, Polywood shutters insulate up to 70% better than a comparable wood shutter.
A third party thermal test (forward looking infrared) showed that the Polywood Shutter Insulating System blocked as much as 30 degrees of temperature coming through the window. This means the HVAC system doesn’t have to work as long.
Here’s how Polywood provides you with more energy savings than any other shutter:
-
Stops Air Flow. Polywood’s thermal protection blocks up to 30 degrees of airflow that comes through a window.
-
Maximizes R-Value. Polywood has an R-Value of over 6 in a double-pane window. That’s the highest thermal resistance rating of insulation material of any shutter you can find.
-
Reduces Heat Transfer. Polywood offers a 45.96% reduction in heat transfer.
-
Boosts Energy Efficiency. Polywood is up to 70% more energy efficient than wood shutters and up to 1600% more energy efficient than aluminum blinds.
-
Resists Moisture and Humidity. Since Polywood is moisture-proof, it resists moisture and humidity that can influence the temperature of a room.
