You know that as the years pass by, something new and technologically advanced comes on the scene on a regular basis. Take phones, for instance. Do you remember the first car phones? They were housed in bags and they were giant. Not many people had them, but those that did were super cool. Now, everyone runs around with a tiny phone in their pockets, which doubles as a computer and just about anything else you want it to be. Phones aren’t the only items that have technology behind them. In fact, just about everything is advancing at lightning speed. If you are considering new windows Irving, TX, for your home. You will be pleased to know that they have a lot of new technology behind them as well. Here are a few items to consider adding to your windows to make the most of their qualities in your home.
Low-E Coating
This technology is a light coat on the glass of your windows that blocks out the UV rays. You don’t have to worry about the harmful rays on your skin if you’re sitting in the sun inside your house. And you don’t have to worry about your furniture, flooring, or other items fading in the sunlight. You get the natural light you want without any of the normal dangers that come with sunlight drifting into a home.
Energy Efficiency
Windows have come a long way in energy efficiency over the past decade. There has been double-pane glass on the market for a long time, but now it’s standard and you can even upgrade to triple-pane glass. And instead of placing air between the panes, you can have argon or krypton gas placed. These gases are clear, but they are denser than air, which makes them better at insulating your home against the hot Irving air. Your house will leak less air and remain warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.
Hardware
A lock is a lock, right? Not exactly! Locks today are advanced and though they are easy for users to open and close, they are almost impossible to maneuver from the outside. That’s great news for the security of your home. Windows are also tight against the house now, which makes them hard to pry open as well. Anything you can do to raise the security of your home is going to make you feel safer and more comfortable inside.
