ENERGY EFFICIENT WINDOWS AUSTIN HOMES RELY ON YEAR ROUND!

FEATURE – ENERGY EFFICIENT WINDOWS

Ringer Windows are designed to provide great energy efficiency to combat the harsh Texas weather. We make great custom vinyl windows that include Argon Gas, high-quality vinyl compounds, double-pane glass, and superior Low E glass packages. Consequently, Ringer Windows are replacement windows Austin homeowners and building professionals depend on for the most energy efficient windows in the market.

RINGER WINDOWS MANUFACTURES ENERGY EFFICIENT WINDOWS

Ringer Windows builds energy efficient windows Austin and Central Texas homeowners rely on year round! First, our low-e glass windows start with superior Low-E coated glass that’s designed to filter-out the sun’s damaging ultraviolet and infrared rays. Next, we hermetically seal two individual panes of glass into a single insulated glazed unit, called an (IGU). Finally, the IGU is filled with Argon gas. Lastly, the IGUs are installed and sealed into our durable and fusion welded vinyl frame and sashes.

DOUBLE PANE WINDOWS

Double Pane Window Cross-section

Double pane windows are standard with all Ringer Windows! Once the two individual panes of glass are joined to create single unit, we call it “insulated glass”. The individual part that joins and seals the 2 panes of glass together is called the “SPACER”. Windows are most susceptible to energy loss along the perimeter of the glass, where the Spacer is located. Consequently, window energy efficiency is improved using “Warm Edge” technology, the focus of reducing the energy transfer along the glass perimeter.

INSULATED GLASS

At Ringer Windows, we’re proud to exclusively use the Cardinal XL Edge Insulating Glass Technology in ALL our windows. The high quality of Cardinal’s insulated glass with the XL Edge is unsurpassed in our industry. Due to the the outstanding seal quality, we’ve never had a single reported seal failure! Therefore, we have no need for an official warranty department!

Triple Pane Glass

Glass Manufacturers have recently introduced triple pane glass. By itself, triple pane windows would seem to be much better than a dual glazed window. More is better, right? In truth, triple glazing is most effective for improved energy efficient windows in cold climates with sub-freezing temperatures for prolonged periods. It has very little impact in warmer southern climates where temperatures rarely drop below freezing. There’s reliable scientific testing data that backs these facts. Unfortunately, triple pane windows are often promoted and sold in Central Texas under the guise that they make a huge difference. We thought about switching to triple pane glass, however, it didn’t feel honest to promote technology that didn’t yield a good return.

LOW E GLASS FOR ENERGY EFFICIENT WINDOWS

Today, almost all Insulated Glass Units contain some type of Low-E coating for improved energy efficient windows. Low E coatings help block the transfer of energy from the sun’s harmful rays, before entering your home. There are many different types and quality levels of coated glass in the marketplace. At Ringer Windows, we only use the most efficient and highest quality Low E glass in our windows. Even more, our specifically designed superior energy efficient windows with coated glass are replacement windows Austin homeowners trust. Several types of Low E options are highlighted under the Low E Windows Tab.

Low E Glass for Energy Efficient Windows

ARGON GAS WINDOWS

Some insulated glass contains inert gas, such as Argon, between the double glass panes. Argon is “denser than air” and impedes the transfer of cold air during winter months. Hence, this denser gas provides a better insulator than air at colder temperatures. Although Argon has better insulating properties at colder temperatures, rather, it has little to no effect in warmer climates. However, it’s often touted for substantially improving energy efficiency in warmer climates. In truth, the denser gas is much less effective in southern climates where it’s warm most of the time.

RINGER WINDOWS VINYL FOR ENERGY EFFICIENT WINDOWS

Ringer Windows are made with a high-quality virgin vinyl compound, designed specifically for Texas. Our vinyl compounds are a mixture resulting from a combination of natural gas and rock salt with seven different micro-ingredients. Furthermore, Heat and UV Stabilizers enhance the quality, performance, and durability to the vinyl windows Austin depends on. Our vinyl window frame is formed into internal air chambers. This chamber system consequently provides excellent insulating properties minimizing energy transfer inside to out. Vinyl doesn’t shrink or swell with humidity or thermal changes. Furthermore, our window frames are fusion welded. As a result, the fusion welded frame eliminates the possibility of corners splitting or opening up. Most noteworthy, your home is not exposed unnecessarily to outside elements.

Quality Vinyl for Energy Efficient Windows

RINGER WINDOWS = ENERGY EFFICIENT WINDOWS

Superior Low E Glass and high-quality vinyl are combined in making all Ringer Windows. As a result, this weather-stopping duo seriously improves the overall thermal performance of our windows. Above all, Ringer Windows has designed and produces some of the most energy efficient windows in the world!
