Why Buy Storm Windows?
...needing to replace your current windows. Storm windows not only enhance your personal environment, they also add new comfort and security to your home. What Improvements in the R-Factor Rating Can I Expect? "Windows are a primary source of heat loss because they are both a poor thermal barrier (R factor of only 0.89) and often a source of air infiltration. See #1



AIR-SHIELD Moisture Barrier
...and infiltration, reducing condensation within the wall assembly and increasing efficiency of a building’s mechanical system. Wet insulating materials lose much of their R-factor performance characteristics, reducing the energy efficiency of the structure. W. R. MEADOWS thermal and moisture protection products play a key role in maintaining... See #2

What Is Expanded Polystyrene?
...range of densities to yield the necessary properties to meet the highest insulation specifications at the lowest cost. RayLite (1.0 pcf) provides a typical R-value of 3.85 per inch (R-factor + 0.26) at a mean temperature of 75F (R = 4.17 per inch at 40F). Because of its cellular structure, the R-value of RayLite is permanent. It will operate... See #4

Step 3: Insulation factor & Design a) Insulation: ranges from "non-insulated" to "R-18" (a highly insulated door). Keep in mind, the higher the "R-factor" the more the door insulation will be. Kindly refer to our technical specifications for comprehensive door material features. b) Designs: six different... See #9

...systems are introduced into the building industry we find that the R-Value of a material does not tell the whole story." R-Value is based on a mathematical term known as R-Factor. The term R-Value was developed to represent the ability of an insulation material to restrict heat flow. It is determined by placing test specimens between... See #10
