ShareThe impact of windows on residential energy use.
Author(s) : REILLY S., HAWTHORNE W.
Summary
The authors calibrated their simulation models with residential energy use data and evaluated the affect of window U-factor and solar heat gain coefficient, which have a comparable impact on heating energy use. For homes without air conditioning, the low-emissivity windows with a higher solar heat gain coefficient provide greater savings. In cooling-dominated climates, like Phoenix, Arizona, and Miami, Florida, windows with a low solar heat gain coefficient offer the greatest energy savings.
