Windows are one of the biggest reasons for heat gain and loss in your home. The right window treatment can lead to energy and money savings for you.
We offer top-tier energy saving
window treatments in Tampa. Our Polywood® Shutter Insulating System offers the best reduction of heat transfer, exceptional thermal resistance, and has the most energy efficiency of all the window treatments available. And, when coupled with Solar Gard window film,
Polywood shutters are the ideal choice for the most savings on your energy statements.
The Polywood Shutter Insulation System
Shutters are the top energy-efficient window treatment. And our
Polywood shutters, with their advanced insulation system, are the best energy saving
shutters in Tampa – if not America.
We make each part of our Polywood Shutters, keeping energy efficiency in mind to give you the most energy savings. The exclusive solid polymer material Polywood is composed from can block airflow because of its density. This transforms these shutters into a natural insulator. Polywood shutters block more light and temperature than any other shutter because of their patented weather stripping on the sides of each panel. This greatly limits heat transfer at the edge of the panels in both the hot summer and the cold winter in Tampa. Add to that a heat-reflective paint, and you get a shutter that is not only beautiful but also remarkably energy efficient. In fact, Polywood shutters insulate up to 70% better than a similar wood shutter.
A third party thermal test (forward looking infrared) showed that the Polywood Shutter Insulating System blocked as much as 30 degrees of temperature coming through the window. This means the HVAC system doesn’t have to work as intensely.
Here’s how Polywood gives you more energy savings than any other shutter:
-
Stops Air Flow. Polywood’s thermal protection blocks as much as 30 degrees of airflow that goes through a window.
-
Maximizes R-Value. Polywood has an R-Value of over 6 in a double-pane window. That’s the highest thermal resistance rating of insulation material of any shutter on the market.
-
Reduces Heat Transfer. Polywood leads to a 45.96% reduction in heat transfer.
-
Improves Energy Efficiency. Polywood is up to 70% more energy efficient than wood shutters and up to 1600% more energy efficient than aluminum blinds.
-
Resists Moisture and Humidity. Since Polywood is moisture-proof, it resists humidity and moisture that can impact the temperature of a room.
