We all know that windows are one of the biggest reasons for heat gain and loss in your home. Using the right window treatment can lead to energy and money savings for you.
We offer the highest quality energy saving
window treatments in San Diego. Our Polywood® Shutter Insulating System has excellent thermal resistance, the best reduction of heat transfer, and offers the highest energy efficiency of all the window treatments on the market. And, when paired with Solar Gard window film,
Polywood shutters are the ideal choice for maximum savings on your energy statements.
The Polywood Shutter Insulation System
Shutters are the most energy-efficient window treatment. And our
Polywood shutters, with their exceptional insulation system, are the best energy saving
shutters in San Diego – if not the US.
We take care to make each part of our Polywood Shutters, keeping energy efficiency in mind to give you the most energy savings. The unique solid polymer material Polywood is manufactured from can block airflow because of its density. This transforms these shutters into a natural insulator. Polywood shutters block more temperature and light than any other shutter because of their patented weather stripping on the sides of each shutter panel. This greatly limits heat transfer around the panels in both the summer heat and winter cold in San Diego. We add in a heat-reflective paint, and you get a shutter that is not only stunning but also extremely energy efficient. As a matter of 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 long.
Here’s how Polywood brings you more energy savings than any other shutter:
-
Stops Air Flow. Polywood’s thermal protection blocks as much as 30 degrees of airflow that comes 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 you can find.
-
Reduces Heat Transfer. Polywood results in a 45.96% reduction in heat transfer.
-
Boosts 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 the humid conditions that can impact a room’s temperature.
