Do you still have original single pane windows in your house? As you may know from the drafts, single pane windows are not the most efficient. Double pane and triple pane windows are much more efficient and keep the heat in during the winter and out in the summer.

“Today’s best windows are twice as energy-efficient as those installed just a decade ago”. “While it’s not worth buying new windows solely for the energy savings, you should go for efficient ones if you’re replacing them anyway… You should spend an extra $10 to $20 each for windows that have low-e (low-emissivity) coating, an invisible film that blocks heat from going through the glass… That can knock 8% to 15% off your heating and cooling.
