]]> Comment on More on windows (why you shouldn’t replace them for increased energy efficiency) by Martin Holladay http://www.homeperformancenc.com/http:/www.homeperformancenc.com/more-on-windows-why-you-shouldnt-replace-them-for-increased-energy-efficiency/#comment-183 Martin Holladay Fri, 06 Nov 2009 10:32:59 +0000 http://www.homeperformancenc.com/blog/?p=257#comment-183 You’re right. More information on the economics of window replacement are discussed in a recent GreenBuildingAdvisor article that notes, “Although many homeowners assume that installing replacement windows will save them money, window replacement is almost never cost-effective. In other words, it will take between 40 and 100 years to save enough energy to justify window replacement.”

Read the whole article, “Deciphering the Tax Credits.”
