What are Energy-efficient windows?

Energy-efficient windows insulate your home, holding heat in through Colorado winters and blocking solar gain in summer. That means better comfort year-round and lower heating and cooling loads.

Two numbers tell you how a window performs, both certified by the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) and printed on every unit:

  • U-factor measures how much heat escapes. Lower is better.
  • SHGC, or Solar Heat Gain Coefficient, measures how much solar heat comes through. In Colorado’s high-altitude sun, this one matters more than most people expect.

The windows we install from Marvin, Pella, Andersen, and Simonton are ENERGY STAR® certified for the Northern climate zone. We will show you the NFRC label for the exact product before you buy.

Benefits of Energy-Efficient Windows

Environmental Friendliness

Reduce your carbon footprint by using less energy for heating and cooling.

Energy-Efficient Windows FAQs

U-factor measures how much heat passes through the window assembly. The lower the number, the better the window insulates against heat loss.

SHGC measures how much solar heat comes through the glass, on a scale of 0 to 1. Lower SHGC blocks more solar heat, which matters most on south- and west-facing windows.

Generally, 0.30 or below is considered good for colder climates. ENERGY STAR’s Northern climate zone (which covers Colorado) requires a U-factor at or below roughly 0.22 to 0.27, depending on the version of the standard.

Low-E (low-emissivity) glass has a microscopic coating that reflects heat, keeping interior heat in during winter and reflecting solar heat in summer, without significantly changing how clear the glass looks.

Often yes. Replacing single-pane windows with ENERGY STAR certified units can save $100 to $500 or more per year, according to Department of Energy data, though actual savings depend on your home’s insulation, orientation, and local climate.
