Are Your Windows Sun Damaged? Here’s What to Do

Most of us don’t think too much about the sun that peers into our homes unless it’s creating a glare on our screens. After all, sun drenched windows have that true summer feel, right? Not exactly. Windows are supposed to protect from the sun’s rays, not promote it. The reason is that large quantities of UV rays aren’t beneficial to our health; on the contrary, too much can have a negative impact. Ever notice how sunglasses offer a certain percentage of protection from UV rays? Because it’s important!

How to Know if Your Windows Are Sun Damaged

The big question then, is whether your windows have been damaged by the sun. Well, if you’re using single pane windows, then that’s certainly a red flag. Single pane windows let 90% of UV rays in. If you’re not quite sure what kind of windows you have, take a look at your furniture and wall paint. If the color of your furniture and the paint on your walls has faded, then this is likely a sign of prolonged exposure to UV rays.

The Solution for Sun Damaged Windows

The solution is to replace your windows with energy efficient vinyl windows. Windows like the ones we install are made with low e-glass coating, a special coating that reflects sunlight and heat off your windows. If you want to reduce UV exposure through your windows, then give us a call!
