Storeowners constantly have to balance many things, aiming to offer the best customer experience while also keeping costs in mind. With ever rising rents and utility bills, cutting costs where it’s possible is of utmost importance. However, in the sweltering heat of DFW, customers will expect an adequately cool environment. Is it possible to keep energy bills down while keeping customers cool?
Yes, in fact, it’s also possible to keep your storefront brightly let while preventing heat-adding UV rays and infrared rays from entering. This is possible by choosing Low-E glass (low emissivity glass) for your windows, which can block more than 70% of UV rays and infrared rays, while still allowing the visible spectrum of light in. Utility bills can be reduced by as much as 30% by using these types of windows.
Using natural light allows you to save on lighting costs. Additionally, because Low-E glass blocks much of harmful UV light, you won’t have to worry about your carpets or products experiencing fading from the sun’s light.
