Energy costs around the country are on the rise, forcing those who wish to save money on increasingly steep bills to look for sensible methods of energy conservation.  Since it is a given that energy prices will continue to rise, the question is– In which ways will you conserve more energy and lower the utility bills to save yourself money year after year.    As it stands, there are many energy conservation technologies on the market today, all touting their energy-saving capabilities.  But which one is right for you?  As it turns out, choosing the right product is as important as upgrading your home in the right sequence.  We argue that the first investment you should make for energy conservation is window film because upgrading your HVAC with leaky windows simply doesn’t make sense.  The window film ROI happens in as little as 3-5 years so,   you will readily be able to afford HVAC replacement once that ROI becomes savings.

Why Window Film Has The Best ROI

Numerous studies have been done by the Department Of Energy, window film companies themselves and numerous other independent sources.  The findings are always the same and point to some important energy conservation method facts.

Studies of the top 50 available energy conservation technologies in the US, ranked by payback, a probability of success and overall energy savings show:

 

  • Window film overwhelmingly ranks in the top tier of products
  • Window Film has the fastest payback ranking available—approximately 3 years
  • Window Film Showed the highest probability of success

 

*Note: Replacement windows were also studied,

yet they received much slower payback

ratings and lower probability of success

due to the large initial investment costs

and the disruption installation caused.

These findings and others continually point to window film being the best way to begin fitting your  Los Angeles home to be more energy efficient. However, there are also additional savings to be had through the use of Leed Tax Credits.
