It doesn’t take much to understand why saving money with windows in Mesa is a good idea. If you have already received your first electric bill for this summer, you have your first idea of how much you’ll be paying to keep your house cool. Between the blistering heat of the summer Sun and the recent increases in energy costs, you may as well be throwing your money out your windows. In Mesa your best solution may be to replace your current windows with high-insulation windows from Republic West.

If you do plan to replace your windows in Mesa, you should know what goes into creating them. When explaining windows and their heat resistance it is important to tell people the following:

• Low e² - R value is 3.85
• Low e³ - R value is 4
• There are a limited number of companies who know that the glass in a window is most important to keep the temperature stable and comfortable in a home and they offer window/glass packages exceeding those listed above.  These companies “solar tune” your home to make sure that the proper glass is inserted in each of your homes exposures so the efficiency and comfort of your home are maximum.  Those glass types are a combination of glass, film suspended between the layers of glass and gasses inserted into the pockets created by the glass to maximize the efficiency.
• Low e³ + krypton gas +heat mirror film + krypton + clear glass = R value of 8.3!
• Low e³+ krypton gas + heat mirror film + krypton gas + low e² = R value of 9.1!
• Low e ³ + krypton gas + heat mirror film + krypton gas + low e³ = R value of 10!

It only makes sense to have a professional solar tune your home to suggest the best combination of glass for your windows.  Putting the most efficient glass all over the home is not the answer.  The glass systems are a balance of heat reduction and light.  The more you reduce heat, the more you reduce light.  So the goal is to balance heat reduction while keeping your home as light and bright as possible.
