Benefits of Window Sunscreens
Before we know it, summer will be upon us. And if it is heating up on the outside, then it will very likely be heating up on the inside as well. If you do not have window sunscreens installed on your windows, your air conditioner is going to have to work that much harder to keep the inside of your home cool.
According to Salt River Project, nearly 50% of the heat that enters your home does so through your windows. They also point out that by adding sunscreens to your windows, your utilities bill can be lowered by up to 25%. Knowing how high our electricity bills run in the hot Phoenix summers, that is a huge savings.
