STOP ENERGY DOLLARS FROM GOING OUT THE WINDOW!




It’s a simple scientific fact:  heat moves toward cold and windows don’t insulate against air penetration as well as one might think.  In colder months, up to 50 percent of a home’s heat go right out the window, as well as a significant portion of your energy bills.  In warmer months, solar heat passing through windows can greatly increase the temperature inside a home, causing air conditioners to work as much as two to three times harder and energy costs to rise as well.

Cinderella Carpet One in Salinas and San Luis Obispo and Hunter Douglas are making it easier to conserve energy, and money, while adding beauty to your home.  Most people don’t know the amount of the energy that is lost at the window.  In fact, almost five percent of all energy consumed in the U.S. passes through the windows of residential homes.  Along with reducing heat loss at the window, certain styles of window coverings provide significant daylighting benefits, allowing you to use natural sunlight to illuminate your home and reducing the need for artificial lighting, which saves on electrical costs.

Cinderella Carpet One hopes to educate their clients on the amount of energy that is lost at the window and the energy and cost savings available to them by installing the right window covering.  This is also a wonderful opportunity for local residents to help pave the way towards greener living.
