The best ways to keep your home warm

About 40% of a room's heat is lost through windows and doors. Realizing this, people take different measures to insulate windows and doors. For example, they stick them with foam strips, fill the gaps with foam or silicone sealant.

Such methods are aimed at insulating the room from the cold by insulating the window slopes. However, the glass itself takes up 80% of the construction area, and you need to take care of its insulation before you install the window.

It is best to choose double-glazed windows, which are also called "insulated glass units". This is a sealed construction of two or three sheets of glass separated by a gap. Even an ordinary single-chamber double-glazed window transmits significantly less heat than two separate panes of glass in a frame. You can choose a double-glazed window, which has even higher thermal insulation potential. The best option is to add energy-saving elements to the design. This will maximize energy savings in the room.

The simplest way is to fill the insulating glass units with dried air. A more advanced and effective method is to add various types of inert gases to insulating glass units, such as argon, krypton, or a combination of both. Argon is most often used. It is effective in retaining heat and is also more affordable.

Another method of energy saving is silver-based coating. Thanks to silver ions, the glass unit turns into a kind of mirror that reflects part of the heat energy back into the room. A double-glazed window with such glass on 30-50% retains more heat in the room. Another feature is that the coating has the ability to repel the sun's rays. Thus, it is warm in winter and not hot in summer.

Double-glazed windows with additional energy-saving elements are versatile and can be used for windows, doors, roofs, facades and winter gardens. They can be combined with other glasses to provide greater sound insulation, sun protection, sound insulation and security.
