Triple-pane vs. Double-pane windows in SIPS home
I am in the process of choosing windows for a SIPS home to be built in
northern Minnesota. Here are the things I have heard: Contractor- Don't waste your money on Triple-pane, the house is so well insulated that the difference in energy cost won't be worth it. Also, triple panes means two areas where seals can fail. On this site- Energy savings is the same because the insulation advantage of the triple-pane is countered by the fact that it reflects more energy. Friends - Dorwin (sp?) triple-paned have been great. Friend - Really like H-window triple paned I am looking for more advice. Thanks |
